  1. WELCOMEBriefing Meeting for Participants

  2. Video Study • Researchers: • Helen Roby and Rebecca Whiting at the Open University

  3. Getting started • Your kit • Record and narrate ‘a week in your life’ • 7 day week can start on any day • Aiming to capture different times of day, locations and roles in your physical and digital worlds

  4. Focus on roles • Different roles: • Home, family, work, leisure, community, voluntary • Physical and digital settings e.g. online communities • How you manage these: • Physically e.g. through what you wear or your location • Digitally e.g. through using technology such as mobile phone, computer, netbook, iPad etc • Mundane, well-established routine, new or interesting

  5. Focus on technology • How you use different forms of technology in your different roles e.g. • Family • Work • Leisure • Sport

  6. Focus on switching • Transitions between different roles • Physically • Through use of technology • Situations when it is difficult to switch between these different roles • E.g. what you might think of as ‘switching off’ at the end of the working day or when you are doing one thing but thinking about another • Your commentary on these transitions • Explain what you are doing and your thoughts, particularly what role(s) you are switching – or trying to switch – between

  7. What to record • We are most interested in seeing • what you do as it happens • your interaction with different technologies • Within these general themes it’s up to you to • record what you like • say what you like • record as much as you like, in long or short takes • simply record what is happening in front of you • Feel free to be creative, there’s no one ‘right’ way, it should be interesting and fun not a chore

  8. Example 1: Switching roles - resuming work after dinner at home

  9. Example 2: Transition in the physical world – the walk to work

  10. Example 3: Work v Life – blurring the boundaries

  11. What not to record • Anything of a confidential, sensitive or highly personal nature including such material at your place of work • Children • Other people unless in a public place where they might reasonably expect to be observed • In shopping centres or areas with high security status • Please don’t film whilst driving / cycling etc

  12. To summarise • Please film ‘as it happens’ • Transitions between roles, using digital technologies and in the real world • Situations when it is difficult to switch between roles • Include your commentary on these

  13. If you need help or more information • Participant FAQ on the website • Participant section with copies of documents • Email DBS-Project@open.ac.uk

  14. At the end of the week • Keep a copy of your data on your computer • Arrange return of camcorder + data • Quick chat with me • Arrange interview with Petros • Explore research platform

  15. Interview Study • Researchers: • Gillian Symon and Petros Chamakiotis at Royal Holloway, University of London

  16. Timing and setting • Interviews will be approximately two weeks after you have completed the video study • Not too long so as you forget what happened • Gives us time to review the videos and to select items for discussion during the interviews • We will be asking you too to review your videos prior to the interview • Face-to-Face at a mutually convenient time and place for approx 1 hour • Some interviews may be conducted remotely (e.g. phone, Skype), if necessary

  17. Format • Information sheet will be provided in advance • Specific occasions of switching recorded in the video diaries will be explored and related to wider life experiences • You’ll be encouraged to share stories about events identified in your videos • We will be reviewing selected excerpts of your videos during the interview to stimulate discussion
