Fwd: UC Berkeley talk of potential interest

[Greta Vollmer]

Regarding the talk information below, I forgot to include
date and time which, to my chagrin, I now realize is
today (March 13) from 1:00 - 3:00 p.m in Tolman Hall on
 the UC Berkeley campus.   Not very useful information,
at this point.  Apologies to all.

>My aim in this talk is to describe a (not the) "practical schedule of
>work" involving video capture and analysis, building my description
>on top of a couple of papers concerning strategies for recording in
>field research (Schatzman & Strauss, 1973) and theoretical
>commitments underlying how video recordings are made (Hall, 2000;
>borrowing concepts from Ochs, 1979). This will involve opening up
>behind the scenes work that spans the gap between (i) film records
>and written notes, taken at a particular moment in some ongoing
>research project, and (ii) accounts of interaction, learning, and
>development that make their way into the published literature. I also
>want to consider how digital video (hardware and software) might
>support or extend this kind of practical work, showing some of my own
>(fairly limited) efforts in this area and, if time permits, reviewing
>products from recent work at TERC (Nemirovsky & Carraher, 2000).
