  1. Technical Communication Quarterly Oct 1997
    Technical Communication Research: From Traditional to Virtual ↗
    Laura J. Gurak; Christine M. Silker
    Abstract

    Researchers in technical communication have recently begun to take advantage of the interactions taking place via computer-mediated communication as a rich source for research. Yet, although research in cyberspace is growing, there are few guidelines for researchers to follow. This article reviews three forms of technical communication research methods (ethnography, rhetorical analysis, and surveys) and raises preliminary issues to consider when using such research methods in cyberspace. These issues include privacy and author permissions.
