CALL FOR PAPERS
AMCIS 2021
Digital Innovation and Entrepreneurship
Virtual Conference
August 9-13, 2021
Track: Social Inclusion and Social-Technical Issues (SIG IS)
Mini-Track: Towards an Inclusive Education
Description
Diversity, equity, and inclusion in educational platforms are
essential to
achieve fairness in society and integrated communities. This
minitrack
considers topics related to intersections between gender, age,
ethnicity,
culture, disabilities, and socioeconomic status and how they
relate to
education (both in information systems and other disciplines). The
focus lies
on the role of technology in education (including e-learning and
open
education) addressing both digital literacy (including also
aspects of
societal changes, opportunities, and risks) and specific media
usage skills.
We welcome submissions, both as full research papers and research
in progress.
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:
- Challenges and opportunities of equality, diversity, and
inclusion in
education
- The inclusion/exclusion dichotomy of (open) education
- Using ICT to promote and achieve an inclusive education
- Digital transformation and the future of (open) education
- Educational opportunities and challenges of marginalized groups
- Gender issues in education, e.g., stereotypes, values, roles,
etc.
- Benefits for inclusive education trough personalization of
learning
using ICT
- Implications for policy and practice in education, open
education, and
e-learning
