Track topics
The following thematic focuses serve as orientation and should be understood as an open invitation to submit contributions
Digital strategy and platform economy
The digital transformation demands new business models, fundamentally changes business processes and finds new ways to the customer. In the Sharing Economy, ownership and possessions are being differentiated anew; social business requires new skills. It must be clarified whether production, processing and service can be separated at all in a digital economy and which industry specifics (logistics, security, healthcare, IT, etc.) are essential. Networked and virtual organizations have become a matter of course. The flexibilisation of actors, processes and organisation is the subject of digital transformations.
Keywords:
- Business models
- Virtual organization
- Innovation and change management
- Internationalization
knowledge communities
Online communication in companies, with customers and business partners is becoming increasingly knowledge-intensive. The networking of comprehensive business processes requires specific communities. Processes and structures, not only in virtual companies, must be changed or redesigned. Knowledge communities are not a matter of course. Tell us how you design and operate your communities!
Keywords:
- Digital knowledge work, fluid approaches
- Networked knowledge stores
- community management
- Informal knowledge processes
Rethinking human-computer communication
Without Siri and Alexa we seem lost, HCI is everyday life and, smart devices are our partners. The boundaries between physical environment and virtuality are becoming increasingly blurred and are often no longer perceived separately. Augmented and virtual reality guarantee hybrid experiences and mixed reality concepts are advancing to promising scenarios for knowledge exchange in product development, multi-stakeholder communication or sales. What is the way forward, are there critical voices?
Keywords:
- Industry 4.0, bots, autonomy and hybrid cooperation
- Interfaces, user experience design, usability methods
- Mixed reality technologies & applications as a research subject and as a learning experience
- Visualization of information and knowledge
Public rooms
Design approaches for public spaces are inconceivable without online-supported communication; digital transformation is becoming the framework for action of public administration. Increasingly frequent crisis situations are changing the role of public authorities and their perception in the public sphere. Resilience is an increasingly important characteristic of public authorities and public corporations in cooperation with partners from business, NGOs and residents. How does the interplay of different communities and actors from business, civil society and the public sector shape the administrative process? What about competencies for e-government, sustainability and resilience in the public sector?
Keywords:
- E-Government and technologies of participation
- Digital transformation and its role for communities in civil society
- Citizens' initiatives, political movements and agile publics
- Participation and online services in times of crisis
Knowledge transfer and skills acquisition
Against the background of demography and diversity, the creation of knowledge and the associated processes of development, sharing, use and preservation are increasingly challenging. Digital change leads to new demands on competences and awakens new competence needs.
How can innovative knowledge processes involving a wide variety of actors come about, what role do individual contributions play and how can they be made visible to all those involved? Which competencies does digital change demand from management and employees? How can they be developed? How will teaching and learning take place tomorrow?
Keywords:
- Learning in communities
- Personalisation of teaching and learning
- Diversity of learners
Digital learning and game cultures
Games are part of our everyday life, in leisure time, education, personnel development or organisational design. Everyday tasks are designed to be emotional and motivating, people come together and overcome problems together or in competition. In principle, the development of communities and social networks is promoted or made possible by the application of user and experience-oriented design principles. Report on your practice or current scientific findings on gamification, gladly beyond entertainment!
Keywords:
- Playful Leadership & Playful Business
- Gamification & Motivation Design
- game based learning
