1. Exploring the gap between
interaction and institutional orders
in Pragmatic Web Design
Mark Aakhus
Department of Communication
Rutgers University
2. Purpose
p
Ever more designed support for communication
Increasing capacity to design support
Yet, the tacit dimension of communication still plays a role
How?
With what consequence?
With what design opportunities?

3. Approach
pp
Illustrate ways tacit, often unintentional aspects
of interaction & communication shape what
becomes explicit.
Map the pragmatic terrain between intentional
design of communication support and
communication.

p
(1)
Copilot: Look how the ice is just hanging on his, ah, back, back there, see
that?
Captain: Side there
(2)
Copilot: See all those icicles on the back there and everything?
Captain: Yeah
Yeah.
(3)
Copilot: Boy this is a this is a losing battle here on trying to deâice those
Boy, a,
things, it (gives) you a false feeling of security, thatâs all that does.
Examples taken from Tannen 1994

(4)
Copilot: Letâs check these tops again since we been setting here
awhile.
Captain: I think we get to go here in a minute.
(5)
Copilot: That donât seem right, does it? (3 second pause). Ah,
don t
thatâs not right. (2 secondâpause) (Well). . .
Captain: Yes, it is, thereâs eighty.
Copilot: Naw, I donât think thatâs right. (7 second pause). Ah,
p , g( p ) ,
maybe it is.
Captain: Hundred and twenty.
Copilot: I donât know

âą Prevalence of Indirection
e a e ce o d ect o
â Easier to be misunderstood or ignored
âą âBe Directâ is no solution
â Recognized and interpreted differently
â Safest rated crews, rated highest in indirection
âą Indirection is a Relational Issue
â Cockpit not just about representing a state of affairs
â Moves must be situated within ongoing context of
relational expectations and activity

9. Relational
Despite intensive information & communication
environment,
environment the pilotsâ attention to the
pilots
relational dimension shaped the possibilities
for expressing and managing differences of
opinion

could be worked out but I donât, feel at this time

feelings ((Pause)) basically trying to punish me, as opposed to what the
children ((Pause)) (thatâs all)
[ No itâs not trying to punish ]
400 W: not

myself by going with something like this at this time=
401H: =why
402 W: Number one I know your involvement with the children ((Pause)) and how
you have stated in the past you would be involved and you would do certain
things and then you do not
403 H: Like what
404 W: Like homework schoolwork ((Pause)) Also too, I do not feel that youâre
mentally stable at this point in your life
405 H: I donât feel youâre mentally stable either
406 W: Okay ((Pause)) um, so maybe we should go for the psychiatric
examinations ((Pause)) Iâm more inclined to do that Iâve asked John to go to
counseling f years, and h â refused I h

12. 414 W: =No, we went to Dr. H( ) for Michael
[Thatâs not what Iâm talking about, Iâm talking about Iâm talking about
415 H:
the,
the psychiatrist on ( ) Boulevard who we went to on two occasions and you just said I donât
Boulevard, to, said, don t
agree with what this guy is saying so weâre not going back
416 W:
[Oh okay] I know who youâre talking about sure
417 H: Okay
418 W: Then, I went to a different one, and I wanted to go to=
[( )]
419 H:
420 W: =a different one
421 H:
[Yeah]because he didnât agree with you thatâ why
you didnât want to go there, thatâs the whole problem=
422 W: =No, no Iâve got other feedback from other
people
[How about Dr.
423 H:
(Frankel) ]
424 W: How âbout Dr. Frankel
[We stopped] going to Dr. Frankel because you didnât like what he was saying to us
425 H:
426 W: John, we, you were the one who stopped going, you were the one who said that we should
stop.,
stop Michael from going to Dr Frankel because you saw no progress being made
Dr.
427 H: Thatâs right, I saw no progress being made but you didnât want to go to him because he started
asking about your background and you thought that was irrelevant 12
428 W: No I didnât (Example taken from Jacobs & Jackson 1992)
13. Actional
Despite procedures and specialized roles,
disputants abandoned the development of the
argumentative potential of their contributions
in their responses to each other
other.
13
14. Relational & Actional
Institutional aims for interaction are undermined by
y
tacit dimensions
Cockpit communication
Relational shapes possibilities for expressing and
managing differences of opinion s
Dispute mediation
Actional shapes possibilities for finding
argumentative potential

15. Technological Designs for Communication
g g
Generic Tools (e.g., threaded discussion, chat)
Support communication
Neutral to interaction
Form of interactivity and communication quality left to users
Yet implicit design for interaction â
Tools highlight some aspects of making moves in interaction and
leave other aspects unmarked
Technologically Institutionalized Interaction Formats
Clash: Implicit designs for communication and community use
Results: Invisible, unanticipated, and at times perverse
consequences for discourse quality

19. Relational
Community of viewers could not use the
information rich environment to effectively
raise their objections and requests
â Relational (e.g., pilot situation)
Discourse appears disjointed, complaint riddled
Leaves important aspects of investigation
undeveloped

few instances of low interaction quality.
But, what if we are interested in the record
produced and its prospects for further
deliberation?
24
25. Earlier Internet technologies left communciation
to ad hoc management of participants
New Webâbased technologies provide more and
b
better communication support
ii
Can discourse still take a life of its own?
25
28. The design for interaction appears to realize the
preferred form of interactivity
The product of the interactivity is a corpus of
content
Corpus is shaped by relational and actional
assumptions alive at the time the micro move
was made

29. Pragmatic Web Challenge
The tacit dimensions of communication â the
pragmatics â continue to play a role
Designs for communication and any clash
between affordances and communities may

have subtle if not profound effects on what
becomes explicit and available.

30. The Pragmatic Web Challenge
Develop procedures and techniques that help
render discourse production process transparent
detect interactional drift, emerging commitments
reframe content and direction of interaction
