Establishing an Inspiring, Inclusive, and Interdisciplinary Research Community Around Young People, Information, and Technology The organizers of this workshop are interested in building a research community among scholars interested in the intersection of information, young people, and technology. Specifically, we are interested in addressing questions such as: • What role can iSchools play in exploring relationships between information, young people, and technology? • What methods are best for studying young people’s digital practices around reading / writing / gaming, and their effects on how young people participate/engage? • Which theoretical frameworks support this work? • How do privacy issues complicate both how young people participate, and how we, as a scholarly community, study them? While participants are not required to submit, organizers will put out a call for 500-word abstracts due January 15th, 2019. As an outcome of this workshop, organizers plan a special edition of a journal. Abstract authors may be asked to write full papers, which can be included in such journal. | ||
