Meeting Description: 

Sabine Hoffmann (University of Palermo), Margarethe Olbertz-Siitonen

Professional and/or institutional meetings, especially if they involve
employees or teams at different locations, are increasingly taking place
online (cf. among others Due and Licoppe 2020). Such meetings usually take
place using video conferencing tools, e.g. Zoom or WebEx, or on platforms such
as Microsoft Teams, Slack, or the like, which provide a wide range of
communication channels and thus offer numerous opportunities for professional
collaboration and exchange. 
Parallel to the increasing use of videoconferencing, there has also been an
increase in research in the field, which is usually interdisciplinary in
nature. In addition to quantitatively oriented studies, e.g. in business
contexts, which determine the advantages and disadvantages of virtual and
face-to-face work meetings, there are also conversation analytic works that
can be assigned to the research field of workplace studies or deal with
corporate communication in the field of applied linguistics (see overview in
Asmuß and Svennevig 2009). Methodologically, a fairly general distinction can
be made between discourse and conversation analytic procedures, which have
been expanded in recent years by multimodal procedures (Asmuß 2015, Hoffmann
and Schwab 2017, Schwab and Schramm 2016). 
While conversation analytic research in this area is growing rapidly,
video-based interaction in the specific context of higher education is still
marginalized. That is why our panel ''Interaction in Video-Mediated Settings
in Higher Education'' is focusing specifically on conversation analytically,
especially multimodally processed video data from university/tertiary
contexts. These can come from the areas of teacher training, university
communication or from the teaching/learning context. The focus could be on
individual aspects of such meetings, e.g. the formal/informal structures (cf.
e.g. Hoffmann 2022), the different phases and transitions (cf. e.g. Mondada
2010), instructions and assignments (cf. Hoffmann and Kasper 2021) as well as
the role of the moderation, the chosen language(s), or the emergence and role
of hierarchies and asymmetries.
