OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.

A data session is an informal get-together of researchers to discuss some ‘data’ – in this case, an extract from a secondary mathematics lesson. It is an established way of working for researchers working in an ethnomethodological or interactionist tradition examining interactions, but this session will also be of interest to any researcher using interactional data, whether that is classroom interactions, tutor-tutee interactions, parent-child interactions or any other interaction with a pedagogical purpose. Data sessions are a collaborative practice and an opportunity for researchers with different methodological and theoretical backgrounds to share their perspectives and experiences in studying interactional data. Everyone approaches data differently, with each researcher bringing a distinctive style, analytic experiences and ways of working. A data session allows for a rich exchange of ideas and empirical observations that embraces these differences.
The aim is for participants to experience a data session and to benefit from the diversity of experiences in the room as we work on data together.
