On listening, as a tool

April 8, 2013 By Susannah Fox 2 Comments

My friend Wendy Sue Swanson, MD, delivers a passionate argument for listening more than talking online and, in that way, seeing “where myth is being created” so she can better infuse her own communications with facts.

I couldn’t agree more, so I’m adding it to my list of “participatory research” resources for my Stanford Medicine X Master Class. If you see other examples of people who invite participation in their work, please let me know here in the comments, on Twitter, or by email (sfox at pewinternet dot org).
