Track N°11: Digitization of Education,

ECIS 2022, The 30th European Conference on Information Systems
New Horizons in Digitally United Societies
June 16 - June 18, 2021, Timisoara, Romania
Call for Papers
1 Track Description
Recent developments in digital technology have reshaped almost all
aspects of our lives: our education, our work, and our social
life. Despite the benefits afforded by digital technologies, they
often produce challenges and barriers that the academic community
cannot ignore. This track concentrates not only on the
opportunities that digitization creates, but also on deciphering
how the information systems community can aid in tackling these
challenges and barriers. Moreover, the goal of this track is to
raise awareness and generate scholarly debate about the
opportunities and challenges for fostering digital inclusion in
our increasingly interconnected world. Diversity, equity, and
inclusion are not only essential to achieve fairness in society
and assimilate communities, they also drive the proliferation of
skillsets fundamental to the realization of a truly digital
society in the foreseeable future. Although the role digital
technology plays in society has received attention in the past
couple of years, research in this area is still rather fragmented.
We do not yet have a coherent body of literature that theorizes
about the consequences of digital technology on individuals,
communities, and the broader society.
This track closely aligns with the conference theme, Human Values
Crisis in a Digitizing World, in its aspiration for a more just
society, in which digital technologies constitute an integral
component. This track also considers topics touching on the
intersections between age, culture, disabilities, ethnicity,
gender, and socioeconomic status, and how they relate to
education, industries, and society in general.
We welcome submissions - either as full research papers or
research in progress - that analyse the equalizing role digital
technologies play in different aspects of contemporary life.
Submissions could include theory development, literature reviews,
or practical teaching cases from various research traditions,
including qualitative, quantitative, mixed methods, or design
science.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
· Opportunities and challenges of digitizing of education,
industries, and society
· Equality, diversity, and inclusion in education, industries, and
society
· Ethics of digitization of education, industries, and society
· Digital transformation and the future of work
· Digital and social inclusion in the digital era
· Online learning platforms for digital inclusion
· Digital inclusion of marginalized groups
· Inclusion/exclusion dichotomy of social media
· Political freedoms in the digital space
· Humane computing
· Policy and regulations for promoting inclusiveness
· Bridging diversity or inclusivity gap through digital
technologies
