DESCRIPTION:Join us for a Â鶹´«Ã½ÍøÕ¾ School of Information Studies (SIS) Semina
 r Series talk with guest speaker Dr. Charles Cole on conceptual frameworks
  for surprising research findings.\n\nABSTRACT\n\nResearchers usually star
 t research by defining the problem and designing the research strategy in 
 consequence. But what if you have to come up with a new conceptual framewo
 rk after data collection? In the case at hand\, data collection occurred f
 irst\, followed by  a surprising finding\, which required creating a new t
 heoretical framework. This reverse order in fact often occurs in research—
 e.g.\, in a long research project with multiple data collection events so 
 you don’t want to repeat the same conceptual framework\, surprising result
 s arise which require a new framework. In fact\, Glaser and Strauss’s grou
 nded theory approach welcomes the surprising finding and new theory making
 . But it’s a double-edged sword.\n\nIn this talk\, I will give an overview
  of grounded theory coding for this particular study\, but spend most of t
 he talk on the framework for the surprising finding: How do humans frame r
 eality and use this frame as an interface for information seeking? I will 
 illustrate this framing conceptual framework with slides of Vermeer and hi
 s camera obscura\, Paleolithic cave paintings from the Lascaux Caves\, and
  the mysterious columns of Göbekli Tepe.\n\nBIO\n\nDr. Charles Cole is a R
