Mike, Will you pass on what you find out to me please? Jeff Mascornick, MA Research Assistant Center for Community Research & Service School of Urban Affairs and Public Policy University of Delaware jjm4114(a)yahoo.com (302)547-5952 (c) Message: 3 Date: Tue, 17 Feb 2009 21:54:00 -0500 From: Mike Chapman <mcchapman(a)mac.com> Subject: [Air-L] Using Wikis in Qualitative Research To: air-l(a)listserv.aoir.org Message-ID: <EF6F167C-38CB-46D4-A387-05775D88AD10(a)mac.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII; format=flowed; delsp=yes Hello, Is anyone familiar with any publications that discuss using a wiki in qualitative research? In other words, studies where the researcher actually used the wiki as a method to facilitate interaction between researcher and participants for whatever reason? I have looked through qualitative research journals, the Journal of Computer- Mediated Communication, and New Media & Society but can't locate anything. I would think there has to be something out there but perhaps I'm looking in the wrong places? Thanks in advance for any insight.

Re: [Air-L] Any Tourism Folks on Air-L?

Sally McMillan took an interactivity approach to tourism in a project she did on New Orleans tourism (shortly after Katrina, but!) I'm sure you'll find she has commented on this issue - here's an older paper of hers that may be useful as well. McMillan, S. J. (2002). "A Four-Part Model of Cyber-Interactivity: Some Cyber-Places are More Interactive Than Others." New Media and Society 4(2): 271-291. Denise N. Rall, PhD.
