Dear Colleagues,
The BCS Sociotechnical Group invites you to this event on the 20th of November 2012.
There is a rich tradition of sociotechnical perspectives including contemporary analyses of major projects such as the National Programme for Information Technology in the NHS. Also, recent times have witnessed increasingly diverse applications of sociotechnical approaches in response to a range of organisational challenges. These include promoting green behaviour, workspace design, social care and child welfare, and the management of crowd behavior and crowd events. With this in mind the aims of this workshop are:
€ To build awareness of these exciting advances and their impact on practice € To stimulate discussion on possible future applications of a sociotechnical approach € To identify opportunities for interdisciplinary research in this area
Wilkes Room 2, British Computer Society, The Davidson Building, 5 Southampton Street, London, WC2E 7HA (Nearest tube stations - Covent Garden, High Holborn, Charing Cross)
