Autoethnographic reflections of a learner as a chance-seeker.

Emanuele Bardone
bardone@tlu.ee
A bit of background for this study
How the learner builds his/her own
modus operandi
from the viewpoint of chance-seeking

instrumentalization
agenda setting

forward-looking
tentative
appropriative

sense-making
Autoethnography: how and why
Autoethnography in a nutshell
“Auto-ethnographers-as-authors frame their accounts with personal
reflexive views of the self. Their ethnographic data are situated within their
personal experience and sense making. They themselves form part of the
representational processes in which they are engaging and are part of the
story they are telling.” (Atkinson, Coffey, and Delamont (2003)

Why is it salient for chance-seeking?
Chance-seeking as as first-hand experience
Accessibility
Basis for formulating more precise research questions and objectives
Rahvaülikool, Tartu
100% traditional course
Estonian course for beginners
Data collected refer to the first 9 weeks
23 sept-18 dec
60 contact hours, twice a week
No final test
What does a learner as a chance-seeker know (or
assume to know) before he go about learning a
new language?
Do this work for me?
How do I know it?
Do this work for me? How? How do I know it?

At the moment I don’t and can’t know it
What I knew before I started
Being not just a passenger
The sense of being overwhelmed: too many
unfamiliar words
Hoping to get better - the need for a change
...when life gives you lemon, make lemonade.
or...make use of whatever comes in handy
ups!
When life gives lemon, make lemonade but also limoncello.....

pre-existing habit
pre-existing resources
Why and when do I take pictures? Does that
respond to a particular “logic”?
Chance encounters resonate with some
previous habits, interests, etc.. no matter how
relevant they are and with no foresight into the
future
Tinkering.....
Emergence of new, unpredicted ways for practicing beyond
traditional ones
Tinkering on previous habits
Keep tinkering....
One thing leads to another...
Once a new habit has emerged, it may
be purposefully adopted in other cases
to make chance-seeking a bit less
“blind”
Compounds: pay for one, get two
chance encounters.....on Tartu-Tallinn Bus
when I see that something works, I keep on trying...
re-appropriation by modification
Sense-making
Chances that haven’t turned out particularly
useful (yet?)....
Some conclusions to draw
The one who never explores things for himself never appropriate
What one can do is always subordinated to pre-existing resources. Never the
other way around.
Complex ecologies provide more chance encounters
Resonation provides the first basis for experiencing meaningfulness
Previous habits/skills/knowledge are co-opted via resonating with chance
encounters for creating new habits/skills/knowledge
Emergence of more purposeful strategies for habit formation in due course

Notas del editor

  1. no technical issue....concerns
  2. Whatever attracts my attention for whatever reasons
  3. constraint!
  4. Whatever attracts my attention for whatever reasons
  5. traditional exercises are mostly de-contextualized, therefore boring
  6. something attracted my attention - reverse process
  7. tentative dimension....in due course...
