Call for papers for workshop on EdTech platforms and platformisation in higher education 26 May 2022
by Vito Laterza 02 Mar '22

02 Mar '22

Dear colleagues, See below call for papers for a 26 May 2022 digital workshop on EdTech platforms and platformisation in higher education. Details for abstract submission also below. Kind regards, Vito -- Assoc. Prof. Vito Laterza PhD Anthropology (Cantab) Associate Professor Department of Global Development and Planning University of Agder Norway Academic profile www.uia.no/en/kk/profile/vitol <http://www.uia.no/en/kk/profile/vitol> Al Jazeera English www.aljazeera.com/indepth/opinion/profile/vito-laterza-.html <http://www.aljazeera.com/indepth/opinion/profile/vito-laterza-.html> Corona Times www.coronatimes.net <http://www.coronatimes.net/> Call for papers – Workshop “Varieties of platformisation? How EdTech shapes digitalisation of higher education worldwide” This is a call for papers for a Thursday 26 May 2022 online workshop on: “Varieties of platformisation? How EdTech shapes digitalisation of higher education worldwide.” This is part of a series on higher education (HE) digitalisation run by University of Agder (Norway), Aarhus University (Denmark) and KTH Royal Institute of Technology (Sweden), with funding from the Joint Committee for Nordic Research Councils in the Humanities and Social Sciences (NOS-HS). Discussion of tech platforms and ‘platformisation’ are rapidly gaining ground across social science, with increasing focus on the pervasive nature of platforms for economies and societies worldwide (Kenney et al. 2021). This is spearheaded by concerns for negative effects of Facebook, Google and other tech platforms on various social, economic and political dimensions, such as voter manipulation in democratic elections, spread of misinformation, and far-reaching “Uberisation” of working life (Bearson et al. 2021; Laterza 2021; Zuboff 2019; Srnicek 2016). Academic use of “platformisation” signals the issues at stake are not just specific workings of particular platforms. Rather, it focuses on how platform features and logics shape all kinds of social processes and phenomena. Such concerns ring true for HE, from learning management systems (LMSs) shaping organisation of physical classes and communication with students, to analytics ranging from low-tech video view count metrics to sophisticated datafication of student health data to establish learning interests and engagement, and AI-driven assessment (Ovetz 2020; Cope & Kalantzis 2019). Private sector online program management (OPM) companies run at-scale online versions of traditional part-time modules or full-time degrees in technical disciplines (Reich 2020) and a narrowing set of primarily commercial MOOC-related platforms still claim to massify elite education for underserved audiences with non-traditional lifelong learning and professional offerings (Walshok 2021; Thomas & Nedeva 2018). Simultaneously, educational technology (EdTech) platforms’ market flotations, for-profit mergers, and complex inter-platform interdependencies enable the growth of broadly conflicting platforms logics across much of HE (Grimaldi & Ball 2021; Ivancheva et al. 2020). These varying scales and scopes of digital transformations relate to uneven but potentially wide-ranging effects for teaching, labour, organisational practices, management strategies, funding models, ongoing corporatisation, and public missions of higher education institutions (HEIs). From 2020, pandemic emergency remote teaching accelerated digital online practices and platform usage. This catalysed widespread, short-term penetration of certain platform logics in HE, but with perhaps little understood long-term implications that will endure after the contingencies of fluctuating pandemic responses wane (Kalantzis & Cope 2020). Here, the political economy of EdTech platforms acquires truly global dimensions, connecting disparate locales and wide ranging HEI types. Yet, local and national factors interrelate with transnational dimensions. For instance, the extent of public regulation of higher education, including for personal data protection and its ‘assetisation’ (Komljenovic 2021), may shape highly specific trajectories for HE platformisation in different parts of the world (Laterza et al. 2020; Ruipérez-Valiente et al. 2020). In spite of growing academic, policy and media debates on tech platforms and platformisation outside HE, such social, economic and political effects of rising EdTech platforms remain largely unexplored for HE. Literatures on digital learning and HE digitalisation seem largely disconnected from current debates on platforms and digitalisation elsewhere. This may be due to techno-optimism that originally pervaded digital learning scholarship, and dominance of neoliberal paradigms in HE studies, seemingly positioning digitalisation as necessary for HE’s broader drive towards efficiency, entrepreneurialism and innovation (Selwyn & Gašević 2020). Building on an emerging but still relatively small critical literature on EdTech platforms/platformisation alongside increasing HE marketisation, our workshop plans to explore several dimensions of EdTech platformisation in HE. We focus on four analytical dimensions: a) Key political economy aspects of EdTech platforms/platformisation shaping HE in different countries and regions of the world, with a keen eye towards comparisons; b) Human-technology relations involving EdTech platforms and human actors (e.g., teachers, learners, IT professionals, software developers, HE managers) and their interactions with platform features; human and non-human influences and agency of multiple actors connected to platform development and commercialisation; c) The mediating and shaping roles of HEIs’ and national policies, using single-country or multi-country analyses focusing on highly marketized HE sectors and/or highly regulated, publicly funded ones, and/or HE sectors anywhere in between those two poles; d) Empirical and theoretical linkages between logics and features of HE platformisation on one hand, and platformisation trends in other sectors and broader society on the other. Example topics for workshop papers include, but are not limited to: - How platform logics from EdTech and other tech providers drive changes in HE teaching and learning, labour and management practices, organisational structures and HEI public missions; - Intersection of market and state logics in multifaceted relationships between EdTech providers and HEIs; - How learning analytics, EdTech platform algorithms and other processes of HE ‘datafication’ transform HE practices and goals,; - How HEI teachers and learners relate to platforms in everyday learning ecologies and their phenomenological engagement with various dimensions of platformisation; - How EdTech software developers, EdTech managers, HEI administrators, HEI IT staff, and HEI managers engage with various aspects of EdTech platforms/platformisation; - Policy, governance and institutional aspects of managing EdTech platforms at HE organisational and sectoral levels, including differences and/or similarities between specific countries and world regions; - Development of critical media literacy and ethical HE approaches, such as “digital bildung” (Shanley et al. 2020), to address the negative effects of HE platformisation; - Studies of alternative platform design features and/or alternative HE platforms to address shortcomings of commercialisation, pervasive datafication and algorithmic dominance. Contributions can be qualitative and/or quantitative empirical papers on single or multiple cases, as well as theoretical reflections. Submissions can cover cases from any region around the world. If you wish to submit a paper for consideration, kindly send a title and abstract (200-300 words) by 23 March 2022 to Vito Laterza (vito.laterza(a)uia.no <mailto:vito.laterza@uia.no>) and Duncan A. Thomas (dat(a)ps.au.dk <mailto:dat@ps.au.dk>). We will then provide a decision by 31 March 2021. We expect authors of accepted abstracts to submit a 3,000-4,000 words paper by 15 May 2022, before the workshop. We are currently scoping an international academic publisher to publish this project as a peer-reviewed, edited book collection (where we have institutional funds for open access). Our planned timeline is for: 1) a book contract before July/August; 2) submission of selected book chapters for external peer-review by 30 September 2022; and 3) book publication in early 2023.

IJOC-CfP: Artificial Intelligence and New Media in Challenges
by Seungahn Nah 02 Mar '22

02 Mar '22

******With an increasing number of inquiries, the deadline is extended by March 14, 2022********* *Call for Papers* *Artificial Intelligence and New Media in Challenges: Algorithmic Bias and Ethical Issues* Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies and applications have rapidly penetrated into all aspects of social, political, civic, and cultural life. Despite the exponential growth in and development of AI, algorithmic bias toward gender, age, sexuality, race/ethnicity, and ideology prevails across digital media platforms, ranging from search engines through news sites to social media. This omnipresence of algorithmic bias results in social issues, such as systematic and repeated unfairness, discrimination, and inequality, privileging certain groups over others, violating privacy, and reinforcing social and cultural biases. However, scholarship still remains unexplored in light of the causes, components, and consequences of algorithmic bias and ethical issues. Recent successes in AI are based on "black-box" machine learning models trained with a tremendous amount of data, which makes it extremely difficult to understand or interpret their underlying mechanisms despite their remarkable predictive power. Therefore, this special section calls for papers which can address these structured, longstanding issues toward individuals, groups, communities, and countries across the socio-economic and ideological spectrums. The special section is particularly interested in studies empirically demonstrating the aforementioned issues and providing solutions for a better design, development, application, and implication of AI and digital media. Thus, the following research questions are central to this special section. What are the causes of algorithmic bias and how do these relate to ethical, policy, and legal issues like privacy? What are the components of biased algorithms? To what extent does algorithmic bias produce and reproduce social and cultural biases and vice versa? How can we understand, predict, and trust the behaviors of AI systems? What are the intended or unintended consequences of a biased and discriminatory algorithm? What are the best practices in data collection and model development of AI applications? How do we detect, understand, and mitigate algorithmic bias and the connected ethical, policy, and legal issues so that scholars and developers, alike, use best practices? In doing so, the special section emphasizes an inextricably interwoven relationship among data and media bias, model bias, and social bias. That is, data and media bias leads to unbalanced training resulting in model bias. Model bias, in turn, reinforces data and media bias and produces discriminatory impacts on humans and society. Human and societal bias then produces skewed representation and participation in data and media bias. This “vicious circle” reinforces bias toward AI system and its development, use, application, and practice. Given algorithmic bias toward individuals, groups, and communities across digital media platforms and ethical issues, this special section examines, but is not limited to, the following issues: • Algorithmic bias, discrimination, and inequality toward underrepresented groups and communities • Interaction and amplification of bias between AI and media • Perceived (un)fairness of algorithm-mediated communication, system, design, and applications • (Dis)trust in algorithm news curation, recommendation, and algorithmic gatekeeping • Algorithm bias in news, filter bubbles or echo chambers, opinion polarization, and gaps in knowledge and participation • (Dis)trust in algorithm development, management, and governance • (Dis)trust in practical applications of and data-driven decision-making in AI systems • Impacts of algorithmic bias on cognitive, affectional, attitudinal, perceptual, and behavioral bias in various social, political, civic, and cultural contexts • Impacts of automated surveillance technologies (e.g. face recognition) on privacy • Explainable AI for enhancing public trust • Algorithmic and non-algorithmic solutions to assess and mitigate AI biases and risks We are open to diverse methodological approaches such as quantitative, qualitative, and computational methods. Interested authors should submit an abstract with 1,000 words maximum, alongside a title page containing a brief author bio and contact information. Below presents a detailed timeline. *Proposed Timeline:* • Abstract submission due by March 1, 2022 (*now by March 14, 2022*) • Decision for full manuscripts due by May 1, 2022 • Full manuscript submission due by September 1, 2022 • Decision for publication due by December 1, 2022 • Final manuscript submission by January 1, 2023 • Anticipated publication by March 1, 2023 The final paper should be in accordance with the Journal’s Guide for Authors. https://ijoc.org/index.php/ijoc/about/submissions#authorGuidelines Special section inquiries can be directed to the guest editors, Dr. Seungahn Nah at snah(a)uoregon.edu and Dr. Jungseock Joo at jjoo(a)comm.ucla.edu. Please submit your abstract directly to the editors via email. *Guest Editors:* Dr. Seungahn Nah, University of Oregon, snah(a)uoregon.edu Dr. Jungseock Joo, University of California-Los Angeles, jjoo(a)comm.ucla.edu <seungahn.nah(a)uky.edu>

Journal of Peer Production #15 TRANSITION
by Mathieu.O'Neil 28 Feb '22

28 Feb '22

THE FINAL ISSUE OF THE JOURNAL OF PEER PRODUCTION #15 TRANSITION http://peerproduction.net/issues/issue-15-transition Issue editors: Panayotis Antoniadis & Mathieu O’Neil JoPP #15 TRANSITION features six peer-reviewed articles exploring diverse aspects of transitions in peer production projects. Each article is accompanied by an additional piece or ‘complement’ which addresses the same topic in a non-academic manner. This experimental format aimed to explore the transitions, permutations and transformations of research on peer production. Reflections about change also inform the future of the Journal of Peer Production itself. It was collectively decided that the correct transition path for the Journal is to close its circle: this will be the last issue of the JoPP. This final issue will serve as a vehicle to strengthen the JoPP community and encourage its members to collectively learn from the past, and support each other in our future endeavors. To that end, the issue comprises two dedicated sections: ‘Reflections on the past’ and ‘The future’ which will remain open for contributions by members of the JoPP community until the end of 2022, the final year of the Journal of Peer Production. In early 2023, a closing ceremony will mark the end of this era. More detail on the content of the issue – in its current incarnation – and the plans for its expansion can be found in our Editorial Notes. We look forward to your feedback and contributions. As a final experiment in publishing processes, we invite the authors of this ultimate issue to present themselves in an online gathering in the context of the 7at7 series, on May 7, at 7pm CET, at https://7at7.digital/<https://7at7.digital>. After a quick round of introductions to their work, we will have the opportunity to discuss all together the past and future of peer production.
