CfP: ECREA Interpersonal Communication and Social Interaction Regional Conference
by A.P. Schouten 22 Mar '19

22 Mar '19

INTERPERSONAL COMMUNICATION AND SOCIAL INTERACTION SECTION REGIONAL CONFERENCE (ECREA) October 14 - October 16, 2019 Tilburg, the Netherlands The ICSI Regional Conference is the 6th bi-annual meeting of the Interpersonal Communication and Social Interaction (ICSI) section of ECREA (European Communication Research and Education Association). This year’s conference is hosted by Tilburg University, Department of Communication and Cognition, and will be held in Tilburg, the Netherlands. http://www.icsi2019.nl<http://www.icsi2019.nl/> The conference theme this year is "Re-Connecting". We want to connect scholars from the different sub-disciplines of interpersonal communication and social interaction, for example workplace interaction, communication in interpersonal relationship, impression management, interpersonal health communication. Connecting our insights from different fields may inform our own research, provide creative ideas for future research, and help theory development. Moreover, the theme reflects the fact that our mediated and unmediated interactions are increasingly connected and integrated. As advanced communication technologies increasingly become part of our everyday experience, we are forced to revisit and connect theories of online and offline social interaction. The ICSI Regional Conference 2019 provides an opportunity to share our ideas, theories and research about interpersonal communication and social interaction across our different specializations. We call for paper and panel proposals from any communication or communication-related discipline and methodology that address the section's themes. Submission deadline: June 09 (midnight CET).

2nd CFP: Proposals Due 4/15 for the Fall 2019 Mapping (In)Justice Symposium in NYC
by Gregory Donovan 22 Mar '19

22 Mar '19

2ND CALL FOR PROPOSALS Mapping (In)Justice: Digital Theory + Praxis for Critical Scholarship November 7-8, 2019 at Fordham University (New York, NY) PROPOSALS DUE: Monday, April 15th https://mappinginjustice.org <https://mappinginjustice.org/> ABOUT THE SYMPOSIUM This symposium creates space for critically considering digital mapping as both a method and an object of analysis. Specifically, we invite submissions that analyze or utilize spatial media so as to rethink and re-present distributions of capital, power, and privilege in historical, contemporary, and speculative contexts. We center “mapping” as an organizing theme for understanding and engaging social (in)justice because of its expanding role in literally and metaphorically arranging contemporary life. The everyday adoption of new spatial media—such as web-based mapping platforms, geosocial applications, and locative data—increasingly orient how society understands the past, experiences the present, and plans for the future. To map social justice and injustice is to consider how spatial media can help draw together dichotomies such as medium/method, art/science, and ontology/epistemology so as to trace, represent, and rework matters of inequity. This symposium thus encourages submissions that explore structural inequities in or through spatial media, especially as they relate to matters of difference—such as race, gender, class, ethnicity, ability, sexuality, and religion. We also encourage submissions that utilize digital mapping to spatially represent historically marginalized perspectives through empirical, textual, archival, participatory, and/or pedagogical methods. We welcome 250 word proposals for Short Papers and Gallery Projects that critically address matters of social (in)justice in historical, contemporary or speculative contexts in relation to—but not limited to—the following: - mapping in digital humanities and computational social sciences - critical and/or feminist GIS - participatory and collaborative mapping - digital geography, neogeography, and the geoweb - spatial learning and digital pedagogy - mapping public histories - aesthetics and representation in digital mapping - mapping of cultural texts and artifacts - mapping media ecologies and augmented realities - smart urbanism and spatial data infrastructures Submitted proposals will be reviewed by the Symposium Committee. 2,000 word papers will be requested prior to the symposium for accepted Short Paper proposals. Panels and keynotes will be livestreamed and the symposium proceedings will be archived in Fordham University’s Institutional Repository. A selection of papers from the symposium proceedings will be invited for inclusion in an edited volume or journal issue. KEYNOTE SPEAKERS (https://mappinginjustice.org/keynotes/ <https://mappinginjustice.org/keynotes/>) Dr. Sarah Elwood, University of Washington Dr. Nazera Sadiq Wright, University of Kentucky FEATURED PROJECTS (https://mappinginjustice.org/projects/ <https://mappinginjustice.org/projects/>) “Torn Apart / Separados” - Presented by Dr. Alex Gil, Columbia University “Participatory Mapping with the Morris Justice Project” - Presented by Dr. Brett Stoudt, John Jay College SYMPOSIUM COMMITTEE Gregory T.

I would like to research the field of web accessibility for people with disabilities and am looking for articles which include theories related to the corporate need to make their websites accessible for people with disabilities. Most of the theories I found are focused on the social rights, independence and personalization for people with disabilities, but I would like to understand the basics of inclusiveness for people with disabilities through technologies for the business sector. The laws are relevant at this time, but legal aside, if I am a business owner what theories might explain motivation to invest in making my websites/apps etc accessible for people with disabilities?

New Book: Affinity Online: How Connection and Shared Interest Fuel Learning
by Mimi Ito 21 Mar '19

21 Mar '19

Hello everyone, I am coming out of listserv hiding with a shameless plug for our new book Open access version is here! http://connectedyouth.nyupress.org/book/9781479852758/ Mimi Ito Professor | UC Irvine @mizuko Director | Connected Learning Lab CEO | @connectedcamps http://www.itofisher.com/mito --------- We are pleased to announce the release of a new book that explores how young people have found new opportunities for expanded learning in the digital age - Affinity Online: How Connection and Shared Interest Fuel Learning by Mizuko Ito, Crystle Martin, Rachel Cody Pfister, Matthew H. Rafalow, Katie Salen, and Amanda Wortman. Book Page: https://connectedlearning.news/AffinityOnlineE Affinity Online is a multi-year, multi-investigator effort, grounded in ethnographic case studies of youth online engagement. It offers a textured and in-depth look into a delightful diversity of youth online affinity networks—Harry Potter fans who knit together, professional wrestling and One Direction fanfiction writers, Starcraft II esports aficionados, Nerdfighter activists, anime video remixers, Little Big Planet level makers, and Bollywood dancers. From the book: “Investigating youth online affinity networks enables us to understand how online networks are changing how young people shape their social relationships, identities, and learning in ways that inform educational practice.” “Our research underscores a central insight of connected learning and sociocultural learning theory: Transformative and resilient forms of learning are embedded in a web of social relations, meaningful projects, and shared activities with which a learner feels a sense of affinity.” “We hope that the stories we have shared and books such as these will help parents and educators understand, appreciate, and connect with their children around new media interests.” Learn more about Affinity Online: https://connectedlearning.news/AffinityOnlineE Affinity Online is available for purchase on Amazon (https://www.amazon.com/Affinity-Online-Connection-Interest-Connected/dp/147…) and the NYU Press website (https://nyupress.org/books/9781479852758/) and open access at: http://connectedyouth.nyupress.org/book/9781479852758/

Workshop on Adaptive and Personalized Privacy and Security (APPS 2019) at ACM UMAP 2019 - Extended Call for Papers
by Marios Belk 21 Mar '19

21 Mar '19

ACM UMAP Workshop - Adaptive and Personalized Privacy and Security (APPS 2019) EXTENDED CALL FOR PAPERS The International Workshop on Adaptive and Personalized Privacy and Security, in conjunction with the 27th ACM Conference on User Modeling, Adaptation and Personalization (ACM UMAP 2019), Larnaca, Cyprus, June 09-12, 2019 Workshop Website: http://appsworkshop.cs.ucy.ac.cy Paper Submissions: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=apps2019 IMPORTANT DATES Extended submission deadline: March 24, 2019 (23:59 AoE time) Notification: April 01, 2019 Camera-ready papers: April 08, 2019 MOTIVATION & GOALS Millions of users across different continents and countries are daily engaged with privacy and security tasks which are indispensable in modern information systems and services. Such tasks are commonly related to user authentication, human interaction proofs (e.g., captcha), privacy and security pop-up dialogs, setting privacy and security features within online user profiles, etc. Recent privacy and security incidents of famous online services have once more underpinned the necessity towards further investigating and improving current approaches and practices related to the design of efficient and effective privacy and security. In order to achieve this objective, one possible direction is related to providing adaptive and personalized characteristics to privacy- and security-related user tasks, given the diversity of the user characteristics (like cultural, cognitive, age, habits), the technology (like standalone, mobile, mixed-virtual-augmented reality, wearables) and interaction contexts of use (like being on the move, social settings, spatial limitations). Hence, adaptive and personalized privacy and security implies the ability of an interactive system or service to support its end-users, who are engaged in privacy- and/or security-related tasks, based on user models which describe in a holistic way what constitutes the user’s physical, technological and interaction context in which computation takes place. APPS 2019 aims to bring together researchers and practitioners working on diverse topics related to understanding and improving the usability of privacy and security software and systems, by applying user modeling, adaptation and personalization principles. The workshop will address the following objectives: - increase our understanding and knowledge on supporting usable privacy and security interaction design through novel user modeling mechanisms and adaptive user interfaces; - discuss methods and techniques for understanding user attitudes and perceptions towards privacy and security issues in various application areas; - identify human-centered models for the design, development and evaluation of adaptive and personalized privacy and security systems; - discuss methods for evaluating the impact and added value of adaptation and personalization in privacy and security systems. TOPICS OF INTEREST Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - Adaptation and personalization approaches in usable privacy and security - Effects of human factors (e.g., cognition, personality, etc.) in privacy and security systems - Novel user interaction concepts and user interfaces for achieving usable security - Cultural diversity in usable privacy and security - Context-aware privacy and security - Adaptive usable security in various domains such as healthcare, IoT, automotive - Trust perceived in patient-centric healthcare systems - Perceived security and usability in patient-centric healthcare systems - Adaptive user authentication policies - Novel approaches to the design and evaluation of usable security systems - Lessons learned from the deployment and use of usable privacy and security features - Ethical considerations in adaptive and personalized privacy and security PAPER SUBMISSION & PUBLICATION All workshop papers must contain original, previously unpublished, research work adhering the two publication types: - Full research papers (6 pages, incl. references), proposing new approaches, innovative methods and research findings. - Short research papers (4 pages, incl. references), presenting works in progress, lessons learned, emerging or future research issues and directions on topics related to APPS. Manuscripts should be formatted using the ACM Standard (SIGCONF) templates (http://www.acm.org/publications/proceedings-template) Please submit your paper through the EasyChair submission system: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=apps2019 At least one author of each accepted paper must attend the workshop and present the paper. Accepted papers will be published by ACM and will be available via the ACM Digital Library.

Re: [Air-L] disability and technology
by Gerard Goggin 21 Mar '19

21 Mar '19

Hi Harel, and all, Very exciting to hear about your work - so best wishes with it - and thanks to everyone for great suggestions. The angle it sounds like you are working on - e.g. 'what theories might explain motivation to invest in making my websites/apps etc accessible for people with disabilities?' - has been a longstanding area of inquiry/interest, but fairly tricky/contested (and also often the framing was a big limitation). So I think what has happened over some years is that researchers, practitioners, and activists have sought to frame the question much more widely and deeply - hence the great work that has emerged, especially in last couple of years, on disability and technology. So this has advantage of giving overdue attention to the profound ways that disability and technology interact - which then really revolutionizes how one might approach questions of how/why accessibility is framed and happens. Here you might find useful a recent special issue of Information, Community and Society I co-edited on 'Disability Participation in the Digital Economy': https://www.tandfonline.com/toc/rics20/22/4?nav=tocList Cheers, Gerard On 22/3/19, 8:04 am, "Air-L on behalf of Jonathan Sterne, Dr." <air-l-bounces(a)listserv.aoir.org on behalf of jonathan.sterne(a)mcgill.ca> wrote: Hi Harel, Lots of good recommendations already. Here are more. Kerry Dobranski and Eszter Hargittai had a great 2006 piece on the subject. Liz Ellcessor and Bill Kirkpatrick’s edited volume Disability Media Studies has good material in it. Beth Haller has a few good chapters of classic press analysis and discussions of online community in Representing Disability in an Ableist World. Meryl Alper chimed in on this thread but I don’t think she hawked her book, so I’ll do it for her: Giving Voice (bonus: first major scholarly study of the iPad). You should also look beyond media studies to think about disability and technology more broadly. Aime Hamraie’s Building Access is essential reading here. Bess Williamson Accessible America. Also there’s great anthropology of disability: Michelle Friedner, Julie Livingston, etc. It’s not all media studies but is very good for thinking capaciously about disability, which is essential to any theoretical accounting of the role of communication technologies in disability cultures, or vice-versa. Melanie Yergeau’s Authoring Autism is more rhetoric than communication in its theoretical framing, but is some cutting edge stuff for communication theory. Amit Pinchevsky and John Durham Peters have also written about autism and communication from a critical, but not necessarily disability studies perspective. Last, here’s the syllabus for the disability and technology course I teach: https://protect-au.mimecast.com/s/IbLLCyoNVrcqNw4OCZnZde?domain=sterneworks… which has lots more ideas and readings.
