I dagens arbetsliv anvands manga digitala redskap av vilka den delade digitala kalendern knappast har uppmarksammats inom tillampad sprakvetenskap. Ramen for studien ar medierad diskursanalys, som har anvands pa etnografiska data fran en arbetsplats och atta kontextuella intervjuer fran atta andra arbetsplatser. Materialet analyseras med fokus pa agentivitet 1) kvalitativt utifran Wertschs (1998) begrepp kring agentivitet, 2) och kvantitativt genom en SFG (Systemisk-funktionell grammatik)-analys av intervjuerna. Den kvantitativa analysen visar en upplevd hog niva av agentivitet. Den kvalitativa analysen sparar en ledarskapsdiskurs och diskurser forknippade med globalisering, demokratisering och ”platta organisationer” fran den digitala kalendern. Den kan ocksa kopplas till andra textmedier som tidrapportsystem och whiteboardtavlor, dar rutor med farg och skrift ar en gemensam diskursiv utformning med den digitala kalendern. Mojligheten att soka och boka i andras kalendrar ar en affordans som dock begransas genom digital eller verbal access. Pa detta och andra satt ar individen starkt relaterad till det digitala redskapet. Gransen mellan privat och offentligt har utmanats av digitala redskap. Sociala aktorer kan gora motstand t.ex. genom att inte folja arbetsplatsens princip att anvanda delad kalender och pa sa satt forsoka oka sin agentivitet. Ett annat satt ar att kombinera flera olika medier och att utveckla egna praktiker som inte direkt erbjuds av verktygets design. Det digitala verktyget bade okar aktorers agentivitet, t.ex. genom mojligheten att halla en mangd information samlad till ett mote, och begransar den, eftersom de ibland upplever maktloshet i vad de kan se i sin kalender. Modern work life includes many digital tools, of which the shared digital calendar has attracted little attention in applied linguistics. The framework for this study is mediated discourse analysis applied to ethnographic data from one workplace and eight contextual interviews from eight other work-places. The data were analyzed 1) qualitatively, using Wertsch’s (1998) concepts for agency, and 2) quantitatively, through an SFG (Systemic Functional Grammar) analysis of the interviews. The quantitative analysis reveals a high degree of agency. The qualitative analysis shows that discourses of managerialism, globalization, democratization and “flat organizations” can be mapped to the digital calendar. The calendar is also related to other text media such as whiteboards and time report systems, where squares with colors and writing constitute the discursive shapes that are common to the digital calendar. The ability to search and book meetings in the calendars of others is an affordance, although regulated through digital or verbal access. In this and other ways, the individual is strongly connected to the digital tool. The boundary between private and public has been challenged by digital tools. Social actors can resist, e.g., by non-compliance in using the digital calendar, thus increasing their sense of agency. Additional features include the ability to combine different media and develop practices that are not directly offered by the design of the tool. The digital tool both widens the agency of the actors, e.g., in keeping a great deal of information connected to one meeting, and delimits it, e.g., in sometimes rendering individuals helpless to what they see in their own calendars.
