Abstract


Through the use of GPS-enabled mobile devices, writers are increasingly able to incorporate location into their writing and research and to do so from different points around the globe. This article articulates the importance of integrating location into writing research through wayfinding. The objective is to determine how writers locally situate their work in an increasingly globalized world. In so doing, the essay describes mobile tools, such as the Strava application and GPS-mapping, to demonstrate their usability and ubiquity. Further, findings include maps from the study which integrate student research into the global locations where that writing work happens. This form of visualizing research practice clarifies and reinforces student movement as an integral aspect of conducting research in global contexts.

6. Conclusion


The maps are visualizations of both place and time of research activity. They represent a group of physically and culturally dislocated students, recording their processes of coming to understand a new host city, Dundee, Scotland. These visualizations are created by mobile technologies in communication with powerful network analysis, GPS data, and complicated mobile devices running advanced operating systems. Moreover, these maps represent movements of a group ofstudents, created asthey write and research—work—in an international context. In so doing, they demonstrate the use of wayfinding, mobile mapping, and digital tools in locating technical communication research as it happens in global contexts. For the study reported on here, students used the mapping software in both expected and unexpected ways—ways that have important implications for writing practices in global contexts. Although a logical use of Google Maps, using the tools for both class projects and mundane activities highlights blurring of boundaries (on and off the clock, classroom and home) that happens on study abroad trips and typically “messy” research and experiential learning, as well as in the workplace. These maps show • The need for cultural fact-finding as students enter into new global contexts for their work, • The ability of GPS-traced maps to connect disparate locations of work together, • The impact of including such non-places in the methods of empirical research, and • The kairotic aspect of these digital tools to enable students to take these methods with them wherever they have a networked connection.
