-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] Call for papers: Special Issue on Smart Service, Smart Business, Smart Research in Journal of the Association for Information Systems Date: Wed, 13 Jun 2018 09:40:14 +0800 From: YC Ben Yang (楊淯程) <ycyang(a)mis.nsysu.edu.tw> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org CALL FOR PAPERS Special Issue on Smart Service, Smart Business, Smart Research in Journal of the Association for Information Systems *Background* Recently, the Future Today Institute published its 2018 Tech Trends Report, which identifies “emerging technology trends that will influence business government, education, media and society in the coming year.” Within the report, “smart” appears 269 times, “tech” appears 464 times, “intelligence” appears 89 times, and IT-enabled services and technologies feature prominently in categories across sectors; this collective evidence suggests that IT-enabled smart services are expected to become a major trend in the near future. Smart technologies that combine artificial intelligence and innovative technologies (e.g., the Internet of things, soft robots, image and voice recognition, block chain mechanisms, unmanned vehicles) offer new and valuable production possibilities, allowing information resources to be processed and integrated in new ways to create unprecedented smart services. Smart services often are based on real-time data collection and intelligent data analyses, as well as networked and creative IT systems and platforms. Smart services are also cross-disciplinary and lead to disruptive changes in many different areas, including manufacturing, finance, insurance, healthcare, and tourism, among others. Smart services provide the basis for emerging value networks that create new opportunities in manufacturing (e.g., instant mass production of personalized sneakers) and promote the development of new products and services. With respect to finance services, new technologies have generated a range of innovations that include smartphone-driven mobile banking, investment services, and smart contracts. Moreover, information technology and innovation are also impacting the health care industry, as consumers’ growing demands for smart health services has led to the development of new healthcare models. In particular, patients’ desire personalized healthcare technologies (e.g., intelligent diagnosis, wearable devices, and distant medical services) that allow them to better manage their healthcare. *Topics of Interest* We invite scholars from a broad range of disciplines to submit their high-quality research to this special issue.

In addressing IS research questions, these papers are expected to use theories and methods from the cognitive and psychological sciences. The future of the Information System discipline is bound to involve human cognition as more and more systems are being used to meet our social needs. Human cognition deals with how we know things and make decisions, through processes such as reasoning, perception, and judgment. SIG Cognitive Research is intended to represent and support researchers in information systems who view understanding human cognition as a critical component to the successful design and implementation of information systems. As such, the questions of interest that are relevant to this SIG group focus on IS problems in terms of the process of knowing. There is a wide range of diverse topics from which these questions can come. These include, but are not limited to, the ones listed below. * Cognition in Virtual Worlds * Cognition in worlds of augmented reality * Cognition in wearable technology and ecoskeletons * Cognitive perspectives on human or computer-mediated knowledge-sharing * Cognitive perspectives on decision processes * Cognitive perspectives on knowledge management * Cognitive perspectives on the design or use of information systems * Cognitive processes of programmers/systems developers * Cognitive aspects of learning and innovation * Collaborative work * Creativity and creative cognition * Design of user learning and training interventions * Group and individual decision support systems * Group and individual group problem-finding, problem-solving * Human factors in information environments * Human-computer interaction or human factors perspectives involving cognition or perception * Research methods to investigate cognitive issues in IS * Situated, shared, social, distributed, and team cognition TRACKS: Full papers: Papers should be limited to 10,000 words, including tables, figures, and references. Authors must also include an abstract not exceeding 300 words. Papers are to be submitted electronically to c_riemenschneider(a)baylor.edu with the subject line "CORE Submission".

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [wkwi] CfP 1st Workshop on Teaching and Learning Conceptual Modeling atPoEM 2018 Date: Tue, 12 Jun 2018 17:43:48 +0200 (CEST) From: Strecker, Stefan <stefan.strecker(a)fernuni-hagen.de> Reply-To: postmaster(a)seda.wiai.uni-bamberg.de CfP 1st Workshop on Teaching and Learning Conceptual Modeling (TLCM) Workshop Date: 31 October 2018 http://merode.econ.kuleuven.ac.be/events/2018/TLCM2018 In conjunction with the 11th IFIP WG 8.1 Working Conference on the Practice of Enterprise Modelling (PoEM 2018) 31 October - 2 November, 2018, Vienna, Austria http://poem2018.omilab.org Keynote talk by Prof. Jeroen J. G. van Merrienboer, Maastricht University, The Netherlands: "Four-Component Instructional Design: Approaches to Scaffolding Complex Learning" http://merode.econ.kuleuven.ac.be/events/2018/TLCM2018/index.asp#program Viewed as an activity, conceptual modeling involves an intricate array of cognitive processes and performed actions including: abstracting, conceptualizing, associating, contextualizing, interpreting & sense-making, judging & evaluating, drawing & visualizing; and, in group settings: communicating, discussing and agreeing. Learning conceptual modeling is, hence, a complex and challenging task for learners associated with codified as well as tacit knowledge and a learning process involving knowledge acquisition through experience (e.g., Sedrakyan G, Snoeck M (2017) Cognitive feedback and behavioral feedforward automation perspectives for modeling and validation in a learning context. Communications in Computer and Information Science 692:70–92). Teaching conceptual modeling is a likewise challenging task faced by didactic and practical challenges. Teaching and learning conceptual modeling are linked through theories of learning and methods of teaching which build upon fundamental assumptions about learning and the learning process (often discussed in reference to the broad classification of behaviorism, cognitivism and constructivism). The 1st Workshop on Teaching and Learning Conceptual Modeling at the PoEM Working Conference series provides a forum to exchange experiences on using and applying theories of teaching and learning when teaching conceptual modeling as well as novel ideas for teaching and learning conceptual modeling based on those theories, and to discuss research on teaching and learning conceptual modeling. Planned as a full day workshop with a highly interactive atmosphere, we seek to initiate constructive discussions and to foster in-workshop and post-workshop collaboration among participants. The workshop entails invited talks / keynote presentations and is open for participation and contributed short talks, e.g., on teaching innovations, teaching experiences, and teaching tool presentations. Call for short talks: If you are interested in contributing a short talk to this workshop, please contact us at kristina.rosenthal(a)fernuni-hagen.de and estefania.serralasensio(a)kuleuven.be. Please note that contributing to the workshop implies registering for PoEM 2018.

These platforms rely on individual users for content creation and their success hinges on active user involvement and participation. In addition, spurred by the pervasive use of smartphones, social media facilitate paradigm shifts in the ways we develop relationships, communicate with each other, collaborate, procure goods and services, and exchange information. Also, new business models have been developed which are based on the Internet and concepts of online participation (such as Airbnb as an example for the sharing economy). Alongside, public platforms that allow anyone to virtually disseminate information to a global audience, enterprises have adopted social media to connect their employees and to increase distribution of knowledge within the organization. Despite the ubiquitous nature of social media use, we still need to better understand the role and long-term consequences of this phenomenon for digital transformation on individual, organizational and societal levels. There are both positive and negative consequences that are worth exploring in this context. One the one hand, social media can promote the creation of social capital, resulting in increased interconnectedness, or facilitate social support and collective action. As such, it is opening up a new world of empowerment, in which previously concealed conditions are openly discussed and even celebrated instead of being hidden. By facilitating interpersonal communication and access to information, social media can create significant benefits across a multitude of social and individual layers. On the other hand, there are very real dangers of intense social media involvement that need to be taken into account. The sheer quantity and the sensitivity of the information users disclose gives rise to strong privacy concerns and also gives rises to ethical questions when it comes to collecting and analysing social media data. Moreover, the spread of ‘Fakenews’ and #Hatespeech, as well as the rise of Social Bots, has a strong influence on social media communication. Furthermore, the impact of social media on users’ mental health has been questioned, with empirical evidence hinting at such undesirable developments as addiction, depression, mood disorders. We invite research that offers fresh theoretical perspectives and novel empirical insights on ways of organizing and collaborating enabled by social media. We also invite studies that focus on different contexts of social media use and digital collaboration, examining both positive and negative consequences. We welcome research that uses a variety of methods. We especially encourage research that reaches out beyond IS theories, is grounded in multiple reference disciplines and applies new intriguing perspectives to document and understand the transformative impact of social media and social media-related smartphone use. *Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * * Social media and theories about digital collaboration * Digital leadership and virtual teams * Enterprise knowledge sharing and collaborative work * Personal knowledge management and social media * Blurring boundaries of private and business (e.g. Consumerization, Shadow IT) * Social media-enabled business models * Organizational networking with social media and collaboration technologies * Use of social media for citizen and political participation * Development and use of social media analytics * Identification and effects of Fakenews and Social Bots * Digital methods for understanding social media collaboration (e.g. design science approaches, the computational turn; big data methods) * Critical perspectives on social media (e.g. social and information overload; Technostress) * Intersection of Social media and culture/gender/generations * Value co-creation in Social media contexts * Use of Social Media during crisis situations *Track Chairs* * Stefan Stieglitz, University of Duisburg-Essen, Germany * Alexander Richter, IT University of Copenhagen, Denmark * Shahper Richter, Auckland University of Technology, New Zealand -- *Prof. Dr. Stefan Stieglitz* /University of Duisburg-Essen/ Professor for Professional Communication in Electronic Media / Social Media Director of Competence Center Connected Organization Department of Computer Science and Applied Cognitive Science Forsthausweg 2, Room LE310, 47057 Duisburg, Germany T +49 203 379 2320 M stefan.stieglitz(a)uni-due.de <mailto:stefan.stieglitz@uni-due.de> Web: https://www.uni-due.de/proco, www.connected-organization.de <http://www.connected-organization.de> Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Professionelle.Kommunikation | YouTube: www.youtube.com/ProfStieglitz <http://www.youtube.com/ProfStieglitz> -- Mailing-Liste: wi(a)lists.kit.edu Administrator: wi-request(a)lists.kit.edu Konfiguration: https://www.lists.kit.edu/wws/info/wi
