Portales Machado -------------------------------------- Marxista, Feminista y Bloguera Twitter: @nimlothdecuba Facebook http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=663817529 Mi blog: http://yasminsilvia.blogspot.com/ ------------------------------------ Call for Submissions 6th Annual International Social Media & Society Conference Toronto, Canada July 27-29, 2015 Website: http://SocialMediaAndSociety.com/ ------------------------------------ Call for Submissions Academic research on social media is growing exponentially across various disciplines including: Communications, Information / Library Science, Computer Science, Business, Sociology, Education, Psychology, Health and others. The Web of Science alone indexed nearly 5,000 journal and conference publications over the last decade. This growing body of research revealed many interesting factors about social media platforms, their users, and a glimpse of our society at large. But are we any closer to understanding the broader implications of social media on our increasing networked society? The 2015 Social Media & Society Conference (#SMSociety15) invites scholarly and original submissions that build on the previous work and critically evaluate the role of social media for social and political change, community engagement, marketing, new forms of governance, support of individuals and organizations in domains such as business, information, management, public administration, academia, health, and journalism (just to mention a few). We are also calling for submissions that develop and apply novel methods and theories to collect, analyze, and visualize social media data as well as those that discuss ethical and privacy implications of using big and small data. We welcome both quantitative and qualitative work in the broad area of Social Media & Society that crosses interdisciplinary boundaries and expands our understanding of the current and future trends in social media. Whether you are just starting a new research project or ready to report on the final results, you will find that #SMSociety15 is a great venue for you! The 2015 conference invites a wide range of submissions: - short papers on completed or well-developed projects (Due: March 2, 2015) - work-in-progress paper abstracts (Due: April 10, 2015), - panel discussions (Due: March 2, 2015) - poster presentations (Due: May 1, 2015). New to this year, we are also calling for proposals to host: - half-day workshops (Due: February 2, 2015) on a well-defined area or technical tutorials that will examine a particular method or tool for the analysis of social media data in more detail MORE INFORMATION AT http://SocialMediaAndSociety.com/ PUBLISHING OPPORTUNITIES All accepted short papers will be published in the Conference Proceedings by the ACM International Conference Proceeding Series (ICPS). Authors of accepted top papers will be invited to submit their full papers to the special issue of the Information, Communication & Society journal (published by Taylor & Francis). BACKGROUND The Social Media & Society Conference is an annual gathering of leading social media researchers from around the world. Now, in its 6th year, the 2015 Conference will be held in Toronto, Canada from July 27 to 29, 2015.

Organized by the Social Media Lab at Ryerson University, the conference provides attendees an opportunity to exchange ideas, present their original research, learn about recently completed and work-in-progress studies, and strengthen connections with their peers. The 2014 conference hosted over 200 attendees, featured research from 238 authors across several fields from 21 different countries.

Fwd: Wikipedia-Workshop
by Negra cubana tenía que ser 03 Dec '14

03 Dec '14

Eine Veranstaltung im Rahmen von [upgrade Pavillon] Mit: Sandra Abd'Allah-Alvarez , Aktivistin, Journalistin & Bloggerin Es ist wenig überraschend, dass sich in der Wikipedia gesellschaftliche und globale Dominanz- und Herrschaftsverhältnisse widerspiegeln. Stimmen aus dem globalen Süden und von gesellschaftlich marginalisierten Gruppen finden sich nicht in ausreichendem Maße dort wieder. Wir wollen uns daher praktisch mit der Wikipedia auseinandersetzen und überlegen, wie die Sichtbarkeit von alternativen und widerständigen Sichtweisen und Positionen erhöht werden kann. Wie können wir dazu beitragen, die Inhalte dieser wichtigen Enzyklopädie so zu verändern, dass Ideen und Konzepte aus dem globalen Süden,Alternativen zum neoliberalen Kapitalismus oder feministische Positionen dort präsenter sind? Zu diesem Zweck identifizieren wir die “blinden Flecken” bzw. die Nischen in der Wikipedia, sammeln relevante Informationen, erlernen wie man Wikipedia als beitragende_r Autor_in nutzt und veröffentlichen dort Inhalte, die wir vorher gemeinsam erarbeitet haben. Der dreistündige Workshop findet in Spanisch und Deutsch statt. Eine Anmeldung für die Veranstaltung ist erforderlich. Bringt nach Möglichkeit Eure Notebooks o.ä. mit und bitte registriert Euch unbedingt vor der Veranstaltung als Autor_innen bei Wikipedia. Wie das geht, wird hier beschrieben: de.wikipedia.org <http://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fde.wikipedia.org%2F&h=xAQFxk8Od&…> Anmeldung: upgrade(a)pavillon-hannover.de Proyecto “Reescribir la Wikipedia.

Como resultado tenemos entonces una enciclopedia donde no se encuentran suficientemente representados las voces del sur y de grupos sociales históricamente marginalizados. Cómo podemos contribuir a cambiar los contenidos de ésta importante enciclopedia, para que las ideas y los conceptos del sur global, alternativas al capitalismo neoliberal, prácticas feministas, etc. aparezcan en ella con mayor presencia, es la pregunta que anima este taller. En ese sentido nos proponemos con la realización de este taller identificar determinados vacíos y nichos existentes en la Wikipedia; reunir información relevante para ser compartida; aprender a usarla con un perfil de colaborador/colaboradora y publicar contenidos que elaboramos previamente.
