A Time and Place for Preparatory Methods in Email

Content Provider ACM Digital Library
Author Singh, Nikash Maher, Mary Lou Tomitsch, Martin
Abstract Despite the communication of information via Email that is meant to prepare us and make us more organised, Email is fast becoming an unmanageable source of productive information meeting unproductive ends. The Email environment, with its suite of time and task management aids, is proving too fragmentary. Effort expended in categorising and organising incoming information is not rewarded with intelligent forewarning and awareness-generation of deadlines and obligations. With preparatory methods (information organisation behaviour) declining in favour of opportunistic methods that do not facilitate recall or prioritisation, attempts to re-invigorate preparatory methods are required to encourage the continued practice of organisation in Email. To understand what is required of preparatory methods to garner interest from Email users, we conducted a user interface study that targeted the management and awareness-generation aspects of temporal (time-related) information in the Email environment. Our results indicate that users' desire to organise information is not extinguished, but a careful emphasis on assistance is necessary to once again make these preparatory methods an attractive proposition.

About National Digital Library of India (NDLI)
NDLI logo

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
