Project Award, SALC Research Development Fund

Reading Texts for Business and Faith Meetings.
Alex Samely has been awarded £5,624 to fund a project entitled "Supporting the efficiency of meetings with preparatory reading”. All over the world organisations devoted to commerce, administration, education or faith routinely use meetings with “pre-reads” to conduct their business. In such meetings people will often understand what they say to each other by recalling meanings from the document, or the document may become quoted and discussed. The project will explore how the results of recent research, which Alex Samely conducted for a forthcoming book on Reading and Experience, may support training to make such meetings more productive and beneficial.
