Inhaltsangabe

Introduction
Chapter 1: Texts and Knowledge Work
Discusses texts and their importance to organizations. Texts make knowledge
tangible, promote learning, support adaptation, encourage coordination, and
support cognitive tasks.
Chapter 2: Writing Review and Mediation
Discusses the dual purpose for writing review: to produce better texts and
better writers. Considers how this work is offloaded to people and
technologies.
Chapter 3: Affordances of Texts and Textual Technologies
Discusses the socio-cognitive affordances of texts in paper and electronic
form. Questions the suitability of paper text for writing review, instead
promoting textual replay.
Chapter 4: Study Design and Data Analysis
Discusses the design of a study to test whether paper or textual replay
helps writers produce better writing and better organization-specific
writing practices.
Chapter 5: Differences between Text and Textual Replay Mediation
Discusses the differences between text and textual replay mediation use in
five organizations. Textual replay helps writers and reviewers focus on
writing process.
Chapter 6: Textual Replay in Practice-Oriented Organizations
Discusses use of textual replay in organizations that employ professional
writers. Textual replay helps promote cooperative writing and discussion of
process.
Chapter 7: Textual Replay in Artifact-Oriented Organizations
Discusses use of textual replay in organizations that employ "non-writers".
Textual replay promotes contextualization of texts as
organizationally-significant artifacts. Process is coordinated with
organizational demands.
Chapter 8: Designing Technology to Support Practice
Summarizes findings from the study and explores ways to use these findings
to further the design of writing review technologies. The author offers
some suggestions.
