Fwd: [AISWorld] Special Issue: Social Media in Higher Education
by Gustaf Neumann 28 Nov '10

28 Nov '10

-------- Original Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] Special Issue: Social Media in Higher Education Date: Sun, 28 Nov 2010 16:09:33 +0000 From: Stefan Hrastinski <stefanhr(a)kth.se> To: <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> CALL FOR PAPERS Special Issue: Social Media in Higher Education in The Internet and Higher Education The social media hype has created a lot of speculation among educators on how these media can be used to support learning. In this special issue, we would like to explore how social media can be taken advantage of in higher education to support informal and formal learning. It is well agreed upon that most learning takes place outside school in our everyday lives. On campuses, there are common spaces such as hallways, lounges, libraries, and cafés, which support informal learning better than classrooms or lecture-halls. Social media have potential to support learning in both informal and formal settings, as well as creating an entirely new setting in which learning may take place. We can learn a lot from how students are already using such media to support learning in each of these areas. Although most would agree that emerging social media support learning in new ways, we still know little about how students currently use social media to support learning. Prensky put forth the dichotomy of “digital natives” and “digital immigrants” when arguing that technology has dramatically changed the way students of higher education live and learn. Similar arguments have labeled today’s students the net generation, millenials, homo zappiens, generation M and generation Y – labels intended to differentiate their relationship to and use of technology from that of previous generations of learners. However, a growing body of literature questions whether there is really a sharp and fundamental break between today’s young people and previous generations in terms of their adeptness with technology and how they learn. Although we see today’s youth using many social media tools, some tools are more frequently used by older people. Similarly, some are readily adopted by students for personal use, whereas other social media tools have been relegated to as-required or as-assigned use and have been met with resistance. Thus, there are many perceptions of the role social media plays in education, some of which are myths and other are realities. We believe it is time to go beyond the simple dichotomies of the digital natives debate in order to understand how emerging social media can support students’ informal and formal learning. We need to move forward from saying that “students learn in new ways” towards conducting rigorous research that can help us understand the role of social media in higher education. In this issue, we seek articles that present the outcome of rigorous studies of social media use in higher education as well as articles that help provide strong theoretical guidance for the directions future research might take. Authors are requested to submit manuscripts to The Internet and Higher Education via the Elsevier Editorial System (EES) no later than March 15, 2011. You need to select “Social Media in Higher Ed” when you reach the “Article Type” step in the submission process.

-------- Original Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] GITMA 2011 Doctoral Student Consortium Date: Fri, 26 Nov 2010 16:21:21 -0800 From: Alexander Mcleod <amcleod(a)unr.edu> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> GITMA 2011 Doctoral Student Consortium GITMA's 2011 annual Doctoral Student Consortium is an engaging, interactive professional experience designed to help participants successfully launch their academic careers. We are pleased to have the sponsorship of GITMA and the University of Whitewater at Wisconsin. Who Should Attend? The Doctoral Consortium is offered to individuals who are well into their doctoral studies. A variety of students with backgrounds in management information systems, management science, strategy, operations management, organizational behavior, marketing, international business and other areas will increase the vitality of the sessions. The program will focus on career goals, job search issues, placement services, research strategies, teaching effectiveness, manuscript reviewing, and promotion and tenure. Students who are interested in addressing these subjects in a participative, interactive way will enjoy and benefit from the Consortium. Why Should You Attend? There are several important reasons why you should attend. 1. Networking -- getting a job, finding collaborators, and gaining advantages in the career you are about to enter are all related to "who you know." This is your chance to meet and get to know some of the leading researchers and educators in the field. 2. Skill development -- excellent teaching and research require practical skills in addition to content knowledge. You will learn from veterans who will share their secrets to success. 3. Furthering your research -- the research incubator will give you a chance to engage in a discussion of your research ideas with your peers and with outstanding researchers. 4. Learn about GITMA -- this is a chance to learn more about GITM, its people, its processes (such as its panels and social networking events ), and its opportunities. 5. Fun! -- come socialize with your current and future colleagues in Las Vegas, Nevada. Program Content The Doctoral Student Consortium involves seasoned, world-class research faculty from several schools, junior faculty just beginning their careers, and key journal editors. All will help guide discussions on the following topics: Surviving and Acing Your Dissertation, Teaching Effectiveness, Research Strategy, Meet the Editors and Academic Reviewing, Job Search. Join Us The Doctoral Consortium does more than prepare individual students, it creates a community of colleagues you'll know throughout your career. Please plan to attend the Consortium and also encourage your student colleagues to participate in this important program. Although many participants will be entering the job market in the near future, others will appreciate the opportunity to get a better understanding of an academic career and how to approach the job market the following year. Application Process Doctoral students working in the area of Global Information Technology/Systems Management are encouraged to apply for the GITMA 2011 Doctoral Consortium. Those wishing to be included should submit: 1. A current curriculum vita, including contact information (e-mail in particular), your major field (MIS, Global IS, management science, strategy, project management, operations management, global supply chain management, and so on), the title of your dissertation proposal or the title of a current research paper. 2. A letter of recommendation from your dean, doctoral program director, department chair, or dissertation chair. The letter should attest to the applicant's qualifications and good progress in the doctoral program. Interested students are encouraged to apply early if they wish to ensure themselves space in the Consortium. Materials should be sent to the Doctoral Consortium Co-Coordinators, by January 30, 2011. Those who apply by this date and meet the criteria listed above will be accepted for participation. Applications received after January 30, 2011 will receive consideration on a space-available basis. 3. A summary draft of your dissertation to date by January 30, 2011. This should include the research question/s and objectives, and research methodology. This will allow the mentor to look over the materials and offer some feedback (e.g., an organization that could help with data collection, design of a qualitative study or a quantitative study such as survey instrument/lab experiment and so forth). Participants must pay the regular student registration fee for the annual meeting, but there will be no additional charge for the Consortium. This fee includes the luncheon and reception on Saturday, the networking luncheon on Sunday, and the CD-ROM of the proceedings. There will be a small, competitive $200 grant available to five qualified doctoral students in attendance at GITM 2011. Although students will be responsible for all of their own travel and accommodation expenses, it is customary for participants' schools to provide monetary support for these purposes. Consortium participants will be recognized in GITMA 2011's proceedings. They also receive special recognition in the placement system, special designation on their name badges, and an introduction to the larger Global IT Management community at the breakfast and plenary session.
