An International Symposium at Durham University, 28th September 2012
Values in Social Media
A symposium of leading international scholars exploring the ethics of engagement with new media (social, web, network). What are the research questions? Are there some proposals for a combined research network? How might practitioners in new media contribute to this research? Come and listen, contribute and explore!
Title: Values in Social Media Symposium
Venue: Institute for Advanced Studies, Cousins Hall, Palace Green, Durham
Date: Friday 28th September, 10am-4.30pm
Each session offers an opportunity for a 15 minute poster presentation with 15 minutes of conversation, questions, explorations. By the end of the day, we need to explore whether there is a viable project/funding bid/area of research. Please see the presentations as opportunities to introduce what you are currently researching but for asking provocative questions.
