description | [Goldman-Segall] creates a "digital commons" where more permeable partnerships are formed between those she studies and those who read her research. The book is paired with a Web site where readers can experience and respond to digital video conversations -- an exciting and new way to construct meaning. Before inviting the reader to contribute to this product of her digital ethnographic research, Goldman-Segall employed noncolonialist strategies to engage the children she studied. Students viewed and commented on her video of them, and read and responded to her journal notes. By engaging in a textual and online multiple-media learning environment, readers can gain appreciation for the messiness and complexity of this type of research. Goldman-Segall has produced a sound work of sufficient depth and scope to engage and sustain the interest of readers across disciplines. Her book will appeal to academics, researchers, and post-secondary students interested in digital ethnography, children's thinking, integrating technology into teaching and learning, and educational reform. They will find this multilayered book seductive and challenging, as will techno-savvy schoolteachers and parents. What readers take from or add to Points of Viewing will depend on their expectations for the book. Goldman-Segall has not written this book for defenders of the status quo or for those who subscribe only to a quantitative perspective; Points of Viewing will not satisfy those who require that truth be girded up and defended by statistical measures of significance. |
