Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Text-based interaction among humans connected via computer networks, such as takes place via email and in synchronous modes such as chat, MUDs and MOOs, has attracted considerable popular and scholarly attention. This collection of 14 articles on text-based computer-mediated communication (CMC), is the first to bring empirical evidence from a variety of disciplinary perspectives to bear on questions raised by the new medium.The first section, linguistic perspectives, addresses the question of how CMC compares with speaking and writing, and describes its unique structural characteristics. Section two, on social and ethical perspectives, explores conflicts between the interests of groups and those of individual users, including issues of online sex and sexism. In the third section, cross-cultural perspectives, the advantages and risks of using CMC to communicate across cultures are examined in three studies involving users in East Asia, Mexico, and students of ethnically diverse backgrounds in remedial writing classes in the United States. The final section deals with the effects of CMC on group interaction: in a women s studies mailing list, a hierarchically-organized workplace, and a public protest on the Internet against corporate interests.

Download or read book Computer Mediated Communication Systems written by Elaine B. Kerr and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2013-09-03 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Computer-Mediated Communication Systems: Status and Evaluation synthesizes current knowledge about computerized conferencing systems, electronic mail, and office information-communication systems. It should be of interest both to students and researchers studying this new form of electronic communication and to organizations that are planning the installation of electronic mail or other computer-mediated communication systems and that need to be aware of the information gleaned from the studies presented here. The book is organized into four main sections, focusing on the following issues: (1) What are the important considerations in designing software or choosing a system from the many available options and capabilities? (2) What factors determine whether such systems are likely to be accepted or rejected? (3) What are the likely impacts of such systems upon the individuals, groups, and organizations which use them? It is not the economic costs and benefits, but the social problems and ""payoffs"" in the form of enhanced performance and organizational efficiency that should be the main considerations in deciding whether or not to use a computer-mediated communication system. (4) Given the conditional nature of many of the possible impacts, no system should be implemented without formal evaluation and feedback from users to guide the implementation. The major kinds of evaluational strategies that have been successfully employed are described in this book.

Download or read book Computer Mediated Communication written by John C Sherblom and published by . This book was released on 2024-03-22 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Computer-mediated communication (CMC) is one of the most exciting areas of study in the communication discipline today. Technology is rapidly changing the way we communicate, allowing us to be simultaneously connected and mobile. This connected mobility changes not only our communication ability but our relational expectations as well. Computer-Mediated Communication: Approaches and Perspectives describes five approaches to understanding the influences of technologically mediated communication on our interpersonal and social relationships. These five approaches examine the constraints, experience, relationships, interactions, and implications of CMC. The book describes the constraints through the perspectives of media richness, naturalness, synchronicity, and affordances. Experience focuses on the personal, presence, and propinquity of CMC. Relationship influences include social information processing, hyperpersonal, and deindividuation effects. The interactions approach considers individuals, groups, and communities. Implications discuss the Proteus effect and actor-networks. The second edition substantially updates each perspective. Every chapter includes a description of the perspective, its multiple applications, analysis and critique, in practice examples, illustration of concepts, ethics challenge, and a set of discussion questions.
