The students act as soon-to-be-workers. That is part of what makes their comments "messy" for our study - they don't answer the question "as students" but as "almost-workers" or "soon-to-be-workers".pargmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17208443783482286491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7165044694341896839.post-23307745598650831162012-05-21T15:14:47.885+02:002012-05-21T15:14:47.885+02:00As I read your post, the concepts "hierarchie...As I read your post, the concepts "hierarchies", "networks" and "tensions" caused me to remember a paper I read a long time ago on so called "intensional networks". They focus on "workers" rather than students, and the tension is between the ego-centric network and the hierarchical organisational chart, but maybe there is something to take away from this notion..?<br /><br />"We found that workers experience stresses such as remembering who is in the network, knowing what people in the network are currently doing and where they are located, making careful choices from among many media to communicate effectively with people, and being mindful to "keep in touch" with contacts who may prove useful in the near or distant future"<br /><br />http://firstmonday.org/htbin/cgiwrap/bin/ojs/index.php/fm/article/view/741/650Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
