This collection of dialogues is the only textbook of its kind.
Internet Inquiry: Conversations About Method takes students into
the minds of top internet researchers as they discuss how they have
worked through critical challenges as they research online social
environments. Editors Annette N. Markham and Nancy K. Baym
illustrate that good research choices are not random but are
deliberate, studied, and internally consistent. Rather than
providing single "how to" answers, this book presents distinctive
and divergent viewpoints on how to think about and conduct
qualitative internet studies. Key Features and Benefits Presents
each chapter in the form of a question in order to provoke explicit
consideration of key issues Illustrates choices made within larger
disciplinary contexts to help students blend approaches, think
broadly, and conduct internet research with the benefit of
multiplicity Offers a range of perspectives in each chapter to
vividly demonstrate that there are many ways to answer
methodological challenges well Includes contributors from multiple
disciplines and across the globe Provides a highly reflexive
writing style that allows readers to see processes that are rarely
visible in finished research reports Intended Audience This edited
volume is an excellent supplementary text for a variety of advanced
undergraduate and graduate courses such as Internet Research,
Research Methods, Qualitative Research Methods, and
Computer-Mediated Communication in the departments of
communication, media studies, sociology, and anthropology. It will
assist new scholars as well as seasoned practitioners in this arena
make informed choices in how they conduct inquiry.
