-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] AMCIS 2019 Cfp Mini Track: Business Simulation in Higher Education Date: Thu, 31 Jan 2019 17:44:16 +0100 From: Anabela Mesquita <abmesquita(a)gmail.com> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org We kindly invite you to submit your manuscripts to the AMCIS 2019 Mini-track, Business Simulation in Higher Education. The AMCIS 2019 conference will take place in Cancún, México, between 15th and 17th of August 2019. Track: IS in Education, IS Curriculum, Education and Teaching Cases (SIGED) Minitrack 1: Business Simulation in Higher Education Nowadays, the development of soft skills is considered as important as the more technical and theoretical knowledge in order to become employable and competitive. Employers are looking for professionals that possess practical knowledge and understand clearly the business where they are entering in. One possible solution to help students to develop those capabilities is through the use of business simulations as these simulate the real situation, where the student potentially might enroll, helping key actors to feel and learn as if they were in the world of work. This mini track is an opportunity for educators, researchers, students and practitioners to share and exchange ideas, techniques and experiences regarding business simulation, its development, application and pedagogical approaches. More and more, the world of work is demanding soft skills as a requisite to enter the job market. As a consequence, higher education institutions are introducing changes in the pedagogical approaches and teaching methods in order to meet these needs and expectations. One solution that is being used is the incorporation of Business Simulation methodologies in the most diverse courses, including management and accounting at undergraduate and graduate levels, and in MBAs. These type of solutions enables students to develop important skills, together with practical knowledge. Competences such as teamwork, critical thinking and analysis, innovation and creativity are some examples of what can be developed and is valued by employers, nowadays. This mini track provides an opportunity for educators, researchers, students and practitioners to exchange ideas, techniques and experiences concerning the use of Simulations as a way to acquire practical knowledge and develop soft skills. Different submission topics and formats are welcome, ranging from more theoretical papers describing the approaches behind those games and simulations, to papers presenting technological possibilities and even the description of the use of such solutions in higher education. Suggested topics related with Business Simulation: Games and business simulation in education • Virtual learning environments • Available solutions and technologies • Pedagogical and methodological issues • Assessment of the learning outcomes • Teaching cases • Theories behind the development and use of business simulation • Ethical issues • Challenges faced by educators and students • Mobile business simulation • Integration of students in the job market Mini-Track chairs Anabela Mesquita, sarmento(a)iscap.ipp.pt <mailto:sarmento@iscap.ipp.pt> Paulino Silva - paulino(a)iscap.ipp.pt <mailto:paulino@iscap.ipp.pt> Submission Instructions: https://amcis2019.aisconferences.org/submissions/call-for-papers/ <https://amcis2019.aisconferences.org/submissions/call-for-papers/> Important Dates: March 1, 2019: AMCIS manuscript submissions closes for authors at 10:00am PST March 7, 2019: All papers have assigned reviewers April 24, 2019: Camera-ready papers are due _______________________________________________ AISWorld mailing list AISWorld(a)lists.aisnet.org

It is a major international forum for academia, industry, and government to discuss research results and advancements, emerging challenges, and future trends in computer and software technologies and applications. The theme of COMPSAC 2019 is Data-Driven Intelligence for a Smarter World. In the era of “big data” there is an unprecedented increase in the amount of data collected in data warehouses. Extracting meaning and knowledge from these data is crucial for governments and businesses to support their strategic and tactical decision making. Furthermore, artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) makes it possible for machines, processing large amounts of such data, to learn and execute tasks never before accomplished. Advances in big data-related technologies are increasing rapidly. For example, virtual assistants, smart cars, and smart home devices in the emerging Internet of Things world, can, we think, make our lives easier. But despite perceived benefits of these technologies/methodologies, there are many challenges ahead. What will be the social, cultural, and economic challenges arising from these developments? What are the technical issue related, for example, to the privacy and security of data used by AI/ML systems? How might humans interact with, rely on, or even trust AI predictions or decisions emanating from these technologies? How can we prevent such data-driven intelligence from being used to make malicious decisions? COMPSAC 2019, organized as a tightly integrated union of symposia, will focus on technical aspects related these kinds of issues as part of the ”Intelligence” theme of the conference. The technical program will include keynote addresses, research papers, industrial case studies, fast abstracts, a doctoral symposium, poster sessions, and workshops and tutorials on emerging and important topics related to the conference theme. Highlights of the conference will include plenary and specialized panels that will address the technical challenges facing technologists who are developing and deploying these data-driven intelligent systems and applications. Panels will also address cultural and societal challenges for a society whose members must continue to learn to live, work, and play in the environments the technologies produce. Authors are invited to submit original, unpublished research work, as well as industrial practice reports. Simultaneous submission to other publication venues is not permitted except as highlighted at the COMPSAC 2019 J1C2 & C1J2 page. All submissions must adhere to IEEE Publishing Policies, and all will be vetted through the IEEE CrossCheck portal. *****INFORMATION FOR AUTHORS***** Authors are invited to submit original, unpublished research work, as well as industrial practice reports.

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] Call for Papers for minitrack on Rhetoric, Technology, and (Dis)information AMCIS 2019 Date: Thu, 31 Jan 2019 04:41:45 +0000 From: Shah, Vishal <shah3v(a)cmich.edu> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org>, AISWorld <aisworld-bounces(a)lists.aisnet.org> Dear Colleagues, We kindly invite you to submit your manuscripts to Rhetoric, Technology, and (Dis)information minitrack, under the Information Security and Privacy track of the 2019 AMCIS conference, which will take place on 15-17 August, 2019 in Cancun, Mexico Submission deadline is March 1, 2019. Following is a short description of the minitrack. Minitrack Chair: James Melton, Central Michigan University, melto1jh(a)cmich.edu This minitrack seeks to explore the relationship between rhetoric, social media platforms, and disinformation. One of the ways to deal with disinformation and to avoid exacerbating biases is to have a general population trained in rhetoric. Because the discipline of rhetoric studies the effects of persuasion on audiences, it can help make those audiences more aware of mechanisms of spreading disinformation. For example, recent papers studied how to inoculate people against misinformation by asking them to play roles such as “clickbait monger” seeking to get clicks themselves or to act as “conspiracy theorist." It was found that when made aware of the ease that misinformation could be spread, people were more likely to be critical of it in the future (Roozenbeek et al. 2018; van der Linden et al. 2017). Such interventions demonstrate that rhetorical awareness of mechanisms that enable the spread of disinformation can help combat bias through awareness. We welcome papers at the intersection of rhetoric, psychology, and information systems that attempt to solve the problem of disinformation from an interdisciplinary standpoint. This mini-track welcomes all types of empirical and theoretical contributions. Possible topics include but are not limited to: - Political persuasion using technology - Safeguards against "fake news" - Technical solution(s) to identify and combat disinformation - Impact of dis/misinformation on an individual, group, and societal levels - Changes in the very meaning of "facts" - Interaction of disinformation and supposed "self-expertise" (e.g., Dunning-Kruger Effect) - Technical traps set up by bots to entice social media users, and its behavioral impacts - Frameworks to combat disinformation/misinformation Link to the track/minitrak: https://amcis2019.aisconferences.org/submissions/track-descriptions/#toggle… References: Roozenbeek, J., & van der Linden, S.

Following is a short description of the minitrack. Minitrack Chair: Rishikesh Jena, University of Alabama, rjena(a)cba.ua.edu This minitrack seeks papers that elaborate an address the underlying causes of disinformation through technological means. Researchers have identified how false information is spread more quickly, deeper, and further due to human nature accepting rumors more quickly over truthful statements (Vosoughi, Roy & Aral 2018). The use of social technologies, which allow for quick dissemination of information further encourages this dynamic by offering strong user engagement but little to no context to users. A balancing act is required in the use of these technologies between mechanisms for disseminating information while allowing us to check the validity of this information. Technological developments (algorithms, big data, artificial intelligence, Internet of Things and smart technologies) hold the promise of combating misinformation. At the same time, artificial intelligence, big data, and algorithms offer little to no access to information that they make inferences about our online actions that are often used to present advertisements or information to us. While the impact of disinformation is mostly believed to influence socio-political opinion, however, it is also likely to affect the world of business. For example, troll farms are buying advertising to disseminate information on a scale that can potentially reach millions of users. Additionally, this information can spread within an organization via “Enterprise Social Media” (ESM) (Leonardi, Huysman, & Steinfield, 2013). ESM can spread disinformation within the organization, hence making internal operations of an organization susceptible to disinformation/misinformation. This can become especially problematic if the organization is in the business of information dissemination such as Facebook and Twitter. What mechanisms frameworks are needed to ensure institutions have immunity against “fake news”. Thus, combating disinformation is a dual challenge, as it can impact the supply and demand side of information dissemination business. We encourage submissions dealing with social media and interaction of “fake news” at an individual level as well as enterprise levels. In this track, we are therefore looking for research on the diverse causes of misinformation/disinformation in social technologies and a variety of ways that these technologies can help us combat it. We welcome articles that detail how technological enterprises such as Facebook or Twitter as a unit) develop strategies to combat disinformation as well as theoretical frameworks we can draw on to develop such strategies. This mini-track welcomes all types of empirical and theoretical contributions. Possible topics include but are not limited to: - Enterprise responses to fight disinformation - Case Studies of enterprises that have fallen prey to disinformation campaigns - Technical solutions and their scalability to protect the integrity of information - User education and usage policies in the space of 'fake news" - The ability of ESM to discriminate between real and doctored information given that technical tools (such as algorithms, big data, artificial intelligence etc.) are also used by disinformation campaigns References: Leonardi, P., Huysman, M., & Steinfield, C.

Minitrack Chair: Gustav Verhulsdonck, Central Michigan University, verhu1g(a)cmich.edu This mini track seeks papers at the intersection of User Experience (UX) design, Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) and disinformation. Design for user experiences is one way to tackle the problem of disinformation. Today’s technological devices may promote the engagement of a user by designers utilizing deep knowledge of the user’s behavior and psychology (Choi & Kim 2004; Chou & Ting 2003). Persuasive design and design for behavior motivate users to stay longer on a platform by “gaming” their behavior or decisions through the design of an interface (Fogg 2002; Lockton et al. 2010). It can range from simplifying a design with a clear call-to-action so that the user makes a purchase, coax them into staying on the platform, or from deceptive practices where threatening language is used to prevent users from opting in/out of policies (aka “confirmshaming”). Often, design practices can serve to clarify things for the user, but they may also utilize disinformation and serve the underlying economic motive of the platform. What mechanisms can help prevent disinformation from a design point of view? Which design practices should UX designers consider to counter disinformation and develop more transparent, ethical design for users? We encourage all types of papers dealing with the design of disinformation exploring issues of agency, platforms, and design in light of the challenges of user experience. This mini-track welcomes all types of empirical and theoretical contributions. Possible topics include but are not limited to: - Business models of internet companies and their relation to disinformation/misinformation - Political and societal impacts of disinformation/misinformation - Efficacy of measures to counter disinformation/misinformation - Social bots and their impacts on changes in perception "usser experience" - HCI perspectives on disinformation/misinformation Link to the track/minitrak: https://amcis2019.aisconferences.org/submissions/track-descriptions/#toggle… References: Choi, D., & Kim, J.

Visit https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=desrist2019 to submit your papers. Visit https://desrist2019.org/ for more information. The DESRIST conference proceeding is published as a Springer Lecture Notes in Computer Science series. We are identifying fast track and special issue opportunities for high quality submissions. DESRIST 2019 - Call For Papers Theme: Extending the Boundaries of Design Science Theory and Practice The increasing need for smart and connected solutions that address business and society challenges and opportunities through design requires advances in both theory and practice of design science research (DSR). The goal of the design science research paradigm is to extend the boundaries of human and organizational capabilities by designing new and innovative artifacts (constructs, models, methods, processes, and systems). Scholars having different backgrounds such as information systems, computer science, operations research, cognitive science and informatics are actively engaged in generating novel solutions to interesting design problems. DESRIST serves as a major forum for the presentation of innovative ideas, approaches, developments and research projects in the area of DSR theory and applications. It aims to facilitate the exchange of ideas between researchers and industry professionals. The 14th DESRIST conference will be held in Worcester, Massachusetts in the Greater Boston area and is expected to attract researchers and practitioners from around the world. Papers that illustrate research results, innovative traditional and non-traditional artifacts and industry experiences that describe significant advances in design science research are invited. We encourage submissions related but not limited to the following areas: Domain Specific Applications of DSR DSR in Healthcare DSR in Cyber Security DSR in Service Science DSR in HCI DSR in Data Science DSR in Business Analytics and Process Management DSR for ICT in Developing Countries DSR in Sustainable and Green Technology Theoretical and Methodological Contributions to DSR Emerging Ideas in DSR Looking forward to receiving your submissions.
