2. MODE multimodal methodologies FOR RESEARCHING DIGITAL DATA AND ENVIRONMENTS An understanding of the origins and scope of multimodality Explications of multimodal frameworks and key concepts Knowledge of the different ways in which multimodality has been taken up by a range of perspectives An outline of the procedures of multimodal analysis The aim of today is to provide:

3. MODE multimodal methodologies FOR RESEARCHING DIGITAL DATA AND ENVIRONMENTS Why take a multimodal approach? What concepts and methods can be used to analyse interaction in digital environments? How can we get at how the use of different digital technologies shapes understandings and experiences? What challenges does multimodality raise for researching digital data and environments? Focusing questions:

12. MODE multimodal methodologies FOR RESEARCHING DIGITAL DATA AND ENVIRONMENTS fine grained analysis: the need to understand the details of texts and interactions focus on meaning making as social and semiotic the demand to broaden conceptions of communication beyond language shared interests, and shared histories externally material focus Similarities

13. MODE multimodal methodologies FOR RESEARCHING DIGITAL DATA AND ENVIRONMENTS Historical origins, influences and directions Extent of emphasis on context Degree of emphasis on modes and modal systems Attention to the agentive work The scale of attention Differences

14. MODE multimodal methodologies FOR RESEARCHING DIGITAL DATA AND ENVIRONMENTS Organizational geography Temporality of events Recognizing events: patterns and customs Detecting incongruities and breakdowns Sequences of interaction, before, after and immediately following one another Conversation analysis & multimodality: analytical focus
