-------Apologies for crossposting---------

Dear Colleagues,

Here comes the final reminder about the symposium organized by The Cultural Matters Group at the Department of Sociology, Uppsala University on Sept. 27-28 this year.

The symposium is called Dis / Connection: Conflicts, Activism and Reciprocity Online and Beyond and we look forward to receiving your papers!

Deadline for submissions is next week- June 18, 2018.

The symposium focuses on a fundamental aspect of social relationships, namely the idea of connection. We invite abstract submissions on the possibilities of connectivity, but also the problems and promises of the act of disconnection. Digital networks embedded in everyday lives have transformed virtually every aspect of social life ? from intimate relations with family and friends to the collective acts of digital activism. Digital relations and connections are our starting point for a broader discussion of notions of connectivity and how they are developing, failing, or simply being reproduced. Therefore, we also focus on the idea of disconnection as a voluntary act to take control over one?s use of digital technologies, as an act of resistance and of saying no to the opaque structures of power and control in the networked society. The goal is to further the discussion on the gains, costs and possibilities of ethical life in the culture of hyperconnectivity. The symposium also aims
 to address destructive functions of connected living, such as surveillance, trolls, selfies, fake news, fake news accusations, sexual harassment, click baiting, commercialism, terrorism, viruses, spam, and the colonization of private life. In other words, we are interested in how connectivity and disconnectivity can give rise to and facilitate social inclusion and democratic processes, as well as exclusion, isolation and conflict.

Confirmed keynote speakers:

Annette Markham (Aarhus University and Loyola University)

Adam Fish (Lancaster University).

Artist Mako Ishizuka will put her thoughts on the themes of the symposium into a mind-map on site, in dialogue with the symposium participants.

For more information please see:

http://soc.uu.se/forskning/forskargrupper/cultural-matters-group/dis-connection-symposium-/

Papers could address but are not limited to the following themes:

  *   What is ?connectivity? and how can we analyze it?
  *   Sexism, peer pressure and online harassment
  *   Digital activism / hacktivism
  *   Bad connection ? communication networks gone awry
  *   The digital underclass ? outsourced journalists, click farm and troll factory workers, and networking refugees
  *   ?Someone is very wrong on the internet? ? risk, edgework, and the rise of the internet as a polarized political space
  *   Digital afterlives and post-humanism
  *   Digital intimacies
  *   Online radicalization and extremism
  *   Epistemic enclosures (so called ?Google Bubbles?) and the future of representative democracy
  *   The colonization of attention and attention economy
  *   The self promotion video as a technique of the self
  *   1337 h4x0rz
  *   Politicians? tweets, dick picks, inappropriate tagging and other downsides of being connected
  *   Analog relationships offline ? embodied relationships between humans (and other animals) as a way to opt out of the digital
  *   Voluntary disconnection

Abstract submission and fees: The symposium will be free of charge, including coffee and a dinner in the evening of the 27thSeptember. The number of participants is limited.

Please submit your abstract to disconnection at soc.uu.se<mailto:disconnection at soc.uu.se> together with your name, affiliation and contact details. Use the same address for queries, and if you want to attend the conference without presenting a paper. Abstracts should not exceed 250 words. You will be notified concerning your participation in the beginning of July.

Deadline for submissions is June 18, 2018.

We? re looking forward to receiving your papers!

On behalf of the Cultural Matters Group,

/Magdalena

Dear Colleagues,

King?s College London is recruiting Teaching Fellows to support its growing teaching provision.

Closing date: 19 June 2018

King?s College London is in the third year of making a significant investment in the Department of Digital Humanities as part of an ambitious programme of growth and expansion in existing and emergent research areas and student numbers across its five MA programmes and the BA Digital Culture. We are seeking to recruit exceptional candidates to join the Department no later than 1st September, who can enthuse and inspire our students, and contribute to the life and reputation of the Department. The Department of Digital Humanities is an international leader in the research of digital theories and practices in the arts and humanities and related social sciences. King's College London has a long tradition of research in the Digital Humanities, going back to the early 1990s. King's is one of the few places in the world where students at all levels can pursue a wide range of inter-disciplinary study of the digital.

Digital Humanities is trying to expand the opportunities for scholars in the relatively new fields of digital culture, digital humanities and digital economy and society. With the support of King?s College, we are therefore able to offer multiple career-developing Teaching Fellowships in these areas. Please, note that we are looking for multiple posts with at least one appointment in each of the areas below.

We are hiring for

Dear AoIRists,

one of our MA students is exploring the role of diverse emotions - first
of all, anger - in responses to news stories on three major Norwegian
news sites.  The broad hypothesis is that anger will be most prevalent
and effective in catalyzing further response (including sharing, likes,
etc.) - but four emotions total are taken on board: sadness, anger,
surprise, and happiness.

1) There is an online tool available for analyzing the emotive content
of texts - "The SATI API enables to perform Sentiment Analysis from
Textual Information", etc.  Comments and observations on its utility,
validity?

2) Recommendations, please, for either useful examples of similar
research, especially with a view towards methods of accumulating and
then analyzing emoticons, and/or other suggestions regarding possible tools?

Many thanks in advance,
- charles ess

------------------------------------------------------
ABOUT THE DATASET CHALLENGE
------------------------------------------------------
For the first Dataset Challenge as part of our European Symposium on Societal Challenges in CSS, we invite researchers and practitioners from the spectrum of Social and Computational Sciences to approach a common dataset. The aim of this challenge is to encourage creative engagement with data from pluralistic perspectives in order to foster dialogue across disciplines. We envision that this challenge will lead to fruitful, in-depth discussions during the symposium, as participants will have a shared basis through interaction with the dataset(s), but varying ideas of where to go with it.

The research questions and methods applied to the dataset(s) can be drawn from the broad spectrum of Computational Social Science. They should ideally be related to this year's symposium topic 'bias and discrimination' and approach new ways of learning about bias, be it by putting forward new research designs and questions, or by applying state-of-the-art methods to identify data patterns that can inform theory building. Topics of interest include but are not limited to:

* Comparisons of user/political actor behaviour
* Unequal structures and political action
* Biases in Web data
* Missing data
* Coverage bias on different platforms / through different collection methods

We ask participants of the dataset challenge to be creative in their approach to the data.

The work presented at the symposium can be early stage, but should be methodically sound and provide either preliminary insights into an interesting research question or first inductively-reached conclusions of systematic patterns of bias in the dataset. These can also be on a meta-level or may be designated to positioning the work in broader theoretical contexts, e.g., about biases in the data collection. We especially invite inventive combinations with other datasets (e.g., digital trace data, survey data, multimedia data, multilingual data, data from other case studies).

Submissions selected by our review committee will be presented in a special dataset challenge session at the pre-symposium day (December 5, 2018).

A jury will select the best presentation (including any created resources, such as secondary datasets or analysis code) to be awarded the very first Euro CSS Dataset Challenge Award.

------------------------------------------
SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
------------------------------------------

Extended abstracts of work in progress or completed projects based on the suggested dataset(s) should be submitted in English in PDF format via the EasyChair submission system: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=csssymposium18

Submissions should be abstracts of approx. 2-3 pages (maximum up to 1000 words plus references and figures).

The abstract submissions will be evaluated based on originality and the potential to stimulate interesting discussions, but should also consider the feasibility of the proposed idea. Please consider that reviewers will be from an interdisciplinary community, therefore describe your ideas, approaches and potential complementary datasets in sufficient detail.

Deadline for submissions to the dataset challenge is September 1, 2018. The final work will be presented at the symposium.

Please see the website for additional information on how to apply for travel grants.

------------------------------------------
THE DATASETS
------------------------------------------

The provided datasets all relate to the topic of political communication in Germany, particularly around the German federal election which took place in September 2017. Participants of the challenge should make use of one or more of the main datasets listed below and are encouraged to combine them or compare them among each other.

Additional datasets listed on the website may also be used, as well as any other datasets of the participants' choice (qualitative, quantitative, textual, multimedia, etc.).

Main Datasets (participants must choose at least one of these):

[1] Algorithmwatch's user-donated search results dataset for the German Federal Elections 2017. Personalized search results when looking up political topics.

[2] Abgeordnetenwatch.de - All members of the German parliaments and their votes, description of vote contents and much more metadata.

[3] Social media content generated by candidates during the German federal election 2017 and resonance with their follower-base.

Please see our website for detailed information about the datasets: http://symposium.computationalsocialscience.eu/2018/#data.

It also lists further auxiliary Datasets.

------------------------------------------
FAQ / ASSISTANCE
------------------------------------------

For any questions related to technical aspects, data structure and especially German language that might come up with these datasets, please do not hesitate to contact us!

Please feel free to use our Google Group / mailing list 'CSSnet' for discussions about the dataset challenge, for looking for potential collaborations, or to ask questions to the community: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/cssnet

Specific questions can also be sent to us directly at css.eurosymposium at gmail.com<mailto:css.eurosymposium at gmail.com>.

Subject: [Air-L] CfP: Designing learning for high-impact, high stakes
        distance contexts (IJDL Special Issue)
Message-ID:
        <CACf8=ZvdeJZeowhDkvh2OV1VvPNuKYeT0GvcGB_-O6vBicHufg at mail.gmail.com>

o you design instruction or learning environments for
high-stakes/high-impact distance or online learning environments? Then we
have a publication opportunity for you! The *International Journal of
Designs for Learning *(
https://scholarworks.iu.edu/journals/index.php/ijdl/index) is a
multidisciplinary, peer-reviewed online journal dedicated to publishing
descriptions of artifacts, environments and experiences created to promote
and support learning in all contexts by designers in any field.

AECT's Division of Distance Learning is sponsoring a special issue of IJDL
dedicated to online and distance design cases that detail the key moments
in the design process for learning with high-stakes/high-impact
implications. These contexts often have regulated initial and continuing
education requirements that require special considerations. For some, the
length of the learning experience must meet minimum requirements or be
accessible offline only. For others, the content may be particularly
sensitive, requiring a delicacy with respect to content presentation not
often encountered in other learning designs. Common learners who experience
these designs include emergency responders, active duty military,
incarcerated populations, medical professionals, crisis counselors,
classified security personnel, and utility and public works employees.

This special issue will be guest edited by Dr. Tonia A. Dousay, University
of Idaho (tonia at uidaho.edu). For the full call for proposals, including how
design cases differ from traditional publications, visit
http://bit.ly/IJDL18.
