    This client is integrating a series of siloed products that provide a substantial body of qualitative research and quantitative analytics tools into an single services delivery platform relying on a common user experience framework and technology architecture. The eventual user experience must meet the needs of a diverse population of customers and internal users, working in the complex financial services domain.
    We will trace the co-evolution of the information architecture and taxonomy efforts, beginning with identifying business drivers and establishing a vision, and progressing to the most recent design iterations.

    It is a general method. It is the systematic generation of theory from systematic research.  It is a set of rigorous research procedures leading to the emergence of conceptual categories.  These concepts/categories are related to each other as a theoretical explanation of the action(s) that continually resolves the main concern of the participants in a substantive area.

    The Discovery of Grounded Theory is a 1967 book (ISBN 0-202-30260-1) by Barney Glaser and Anselm Strauss on grounded theory.
    After their success with Awareness of Dying, Glaser and Strauss decided to write a book on methodology. The Discovery of Grounded Theory was meant to invite and motivate people to use the newly developed methodology. Unlike later works, it does not provide much advice on how to put the theory into practice.
    The authors had several goals in mind when writing the book:
    Legitimize qualitative research. Having a reference book by established authors helped students defend qualitative studies which were not widely accepted at the time.
    Criticize functionalists like Talcott Parsons and his student Robert K. Merton who in turn had been a teacher of Barney Glaser.
    Demonstrate the possibility of building theories from data, something that many qualitative researchers doubt to this day, instead choosing to stick with mere ethnographic descriptions.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Discovery_of_Grounded_Theory

    Hypothesis testing versus emergence
    What most differentiates grounded theory from much other research is that it is explicitly emergent.  It does not test a hypothesis.  It sets out to find what theory accounts for the research situation as it is.  In this respect it is like action research: the aim is to understand the research situation.  The aim, as Glaser in particular states it, is to discover the theory implicit in the data.
    This distinction between "emergence and forcing", as Glaser frames it, is fundamental to understanding the methodology.  Most of you, whatever your discipline, will have been exposed more to hypothesis-testing research than to emergent research.  The research processes you have learned and the thesis structures you have internalised are those of hypothesis testing, not of emergence.  Doing grounded theory well is partly a matter of unlearning some of what you have been taught or have acquired through your reading.
    If you judge grounded theory by the criteria you have learned to use for hypothesis testing research you will likely misjudge it, perhaps badly.  In particular, the place of literature is quite different.  So is the way in which both methodology and theory develop gradually as data and interpretations accumulate.
    In particular, judgments about the rigour of research are often based on narrow criteria: criteria which make sense only for the methodology for which they were developed.  Grounded theory has its own sources of rigour.  It is responsive to the situation in which the research is done.  There is a continuing search for evidence which disconfirms the emerging theory.  It is driven by the data in such a way that the final shape of the theory is likely to provide a good fit to the situation.
    In fact, Glaser suggests two main criteria for judging the adequacy of the emerging theory: that it fits the situation;  and that it works -- that it helps the people in the situation to make sense of their experience and to manage the situation better.
    Elsewhere, I’ve offered similar arguments in favour of action research.  In particular, I draw your attention to my 1999 paper to the AQR conference, and the recent paper on data driven research.
    Now, the elements in more detail ...

    What is a wave?

    A wave is equal parts conversation and document. People can communicate and work together with richly formatted text, photos, videos, maps, and more.

    A wave is shared. Any participant can reply anywhere in the message, edit the content and add participants at any point in the process. Then playback lets anyone rewind the wave to see who said what and when.

    A wave is live. With live transmission as you type, participants on a wave can have faster conversations, see edits and interact with extensions in real-time.

    58. Grounded Theory If your research goal is accurate description, then another method should be chosen since Grounded Theory is not a descriptive method. Instead it has the goal of generating concepts that explain people’s actions regardless of time and place. The descriptive parts of a GT are there mainly to illustrate the concepts. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grounded_theory Designing the Experience of Information Retrieval : Janus Boye Conference 2009 Joe Lamantia 27

    90. Modes 4 Modes of Information Retrieval Seeking & Finding Visiting Stable Destinations Monitoring Taking Delivery Designing the Experience of Information Retrieval : Janus Boye Conference 2009 Joe Lamantia 59
    91. Modes Seeking & Finding The seeking mode focuses on traditional searching, but includes other activities such as narrowing sets using cumulative parameters, finding with/in faceted systems. Seeking & Finding The key characteristic of seeking mode is that, users bring the situations and contexts (like search results) they encounter into existence by seeking them out. When seeking, users encounter fluid destinations within the larger information environment based on what they are looking for, and how they are looking for it. A classic example of seeking mode is a user who poses an ad- hoc query via a search interface, and sorts through the list of search results returned in response. Designing the Experience of Information Retrieval : Janus Boye Conference 2009 Joe Lamantia 60
    92. Modes Seeking & Finding Finding could take the form of active searching by posing queries to a search-style input experience. Seeking & Finding could also take the form of refining a list of potentially Finding useful items based on facets of the content. Users may not know in advance what finding activities will yield. Users may receive a set of search results that includes many different types of items, from many different authors or content sources that conceptually relate to what they began looking for based on mappings of terms and concepts. Designing the Experience of Information Retrieval : Janus Boye Conference 2009 Joe Lamantia 61
    93. Modes Visiting Stable Destinations When visiting stable destinations, users encounter stable places within the information environment that exist regardless of the user's activities. Visiting Stable Destinations Destinations will offer users a set of things they know in advance and expect to encounter. Persistence could be conceptual only, reflected in navigation elements, or made part of the user experience via any number of mechanisms. All destinations have a focus of some kind, such as a topic, or product, or event, and may be defined by the intersection of several focuses, such as products or documents created by one person that are related to a topic or event. Designing the Experience of Information Retrieval : Janus Boye Conference 2009 Joe Lamantia 66
    94. Modes Visiting Stable Destinations Destinations could take the form of pages that assemble content, research, ratings, and functionality either dynamically based on business rules and profile information or manually selected by Visiting Stable Client.com staff or the users. Destinations Destinations will likely change based on business rules and user context, as well as changes in the items available within the environment. A good example of a stable destination is the Arts page of the New York Time online; the articles and the art they concern change constantly, yet users know what to expect when they visit. The page is a visible part of the environment conceptually (as a category) and in terms of navigation, and is easily accessible directly from outside the environment.

    95. Modes Monitoring Designing the Experience of Information Retrieval : Janus Boye Conference 2009 Joe Lamantia 70
    96. Modes Monitoring Monitoring effectively extends the user experience and information retrieval capabilities beyond the boundaries of the originating environment, and allows users to know in advance what they will find or encounter when they enter the environment. Monitoring For example, a user may wish to monitor the publications concerning an issue in their portfolio; while the contents of new publications would vary, every notification they receive would concern a known issue. Monitoring requires messages or communication tokens, commonly email, RSS, or SMS, but could take many other forms as well. Designing the Experience of Information Retrieval : Janus Boye Conference 2009 Joe Lamantia 71
    97. Modes Delivery In this mode, users do not have to enter the environment at all to retrieve information, enabling them to further goals without increasing acquisition costs or effort. Delivery Delivery could take the form of packages of documents or other content dispatched to users via numerous channels, such as RSS, email, SMS, etc. Receiving delivered items is the least active mode we defined for users, allowing them to retrieve information without actively seeking, visiting a destination, or monitoring the environment. Good examples of delivered information are the iconic stock ticker, RSS feeds for blog postings, and email publications.

    121. Desire path From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia A desire path (or desire line) is a path developed by erosion caused by animal or human footfall. The path usually represents the shortest or most easily navigated route between an origin and destination. The width and amount of erosion of the line represents the amount of demand. The term was coined by Gaston Bachelard in his book The Poetics of Space.[1] Desire paths can usually be found as shortcuts where constructed pathways take a circuitous route. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desire_path
