Survey
I am one of the members of the Indian team in a IEEE sponsored study. This study is done by a group of faculty members from University of Tennessee. Though Prof. Shalini Urs, an Indian team was constituted to assist them to collect the data from two prestigious IT companies in India. I was asked to associate myself a team leader for one of the group.
The study aims at collecting data regarding how technologists use and communicate information in their workplace. The study collects information about the ways and means of communication process that takes place in corporate sector. A well designed data collection instruments is being used for collecting the data.
Dr. Suzie Allard from University of Tennessee introduced the study details to the particpants on the Monday, December 18, 2005. The particpants had given their consent for being observed by an observer from our team. Each observer was associated with one pariticipant. S/he will be observering the participant in his/her workplace for a day. We expect to obseve atleast 12-15 people from each company by the end of this week.
Yesterday's experience was good and funny. The funny part of it is that the observer has to "chase" the participant wherever s/he goes and observe what is s/he doing. First few minutes, participants (as well as observers) found it little uneasy for being observed. Later, they tend to forget the presence of the observer and were involved in their work. Even the observers tried their best to be unobstructive to the extent possible.
I am in the midst of a new kind of experience. I hope to write about my feelings at the end of this week's exercise.
