Are you a male or female working in the #STEM sector? If yes, we need your support by participating in our online #survey for #FeSTEM Project! http://shorturl.at/uAJL1
The project entitled «Female Empowerment in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics in Higher Education» (funded by #erasmusplus) aims to promote an innovative method pedagogy that will allow HE students to use traditional and computationally-rich media to create meaningful, shareable exhibits that will act as mentoring models for encouraging girls and women to remain active in STEM.

CFPs: Special Issue in Computers in Human Behavior on “Emerging Technologies for Artifact Construction in Learning”

8/8/2017

Call for Papers for a special issue in Computers in Human Behavior
 
“Emerging Technologies for Artifact Construction in Learning”
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It is our pleasure to announce the call for papers for the special issue in Computers in Human Behavior journal titled “Emerging Technologies for Artifact Construction in Learning”.  Submissions are invited on studies that delineate how constructionism and social constructionism can ground the use of emerging technologies for learning.
 
GUEST EDITORS
1) Dr. Antigoni Parmaxi [http://antigoniparmaxi.weebly.com/]
2) Prof. Panayiotis Zaphiris [http://www.zaphiris.com]
 
Cyprus Interaction Lab (http://cyprusinteractionlab.com/)
Cyprus University of Technology
Emails: antigoni.parmaxi@gmail.com; pzaphiri@cyprusinteractionlab.com
 
FOCUS OF THE SPECIAL ISSUE
The Innovating Pedagogy 2016 report claims that we are at the beginning of a learning revolution (i.e., a new era that builds and extends the impact of technology in learning in new and unanticipated ways). The goal of this special issue is to bring together different facets of emerging technologies and ground their use under the theoretical framework of constructionism. This special issue aims to include not only  innovation on the use of different features of emerging technologies, but also on practices and strategies employed by practitioners and instructional designers as well as their impact on human behavior. This special issue is not constrained in the discipline of Technology-Enhanced Learning. Research on interface design, security concerns arising from the use of emerging technologies are also welcome.
 
MOTIVATION FOR THE SI
Many recent well-known successful educational activities around the world rely on emerging technologies such as social media, virtual and augmented reality, embodied technologies and mobile applications and their impact on human behavior. This special issue echoes the growing research trend towards innovations in the use of emerging technologies and makes an effort to delineate how constructionism and social constructionism ground their use. Constructionism was chosen as a theory of learning, teaching, and design that aligns well with the demands and expectations of computational culture, and emphasizes building, creating and making of shared and meaningful artifacts as a means for gaining knowledge (Papert, 1980; 1993).
 
POSSIBLE TOPICS OF INTEREST
This special issue will welcome contributions on the following, though not exhaustive, list of topics:
 
- How can emerging technologies embody constructionist/social constructionist elements and transform educational activities?
 
- How can different features of emerging technologies support the construction of an artifact that can be meaningful to its constructors?
 
- How do learners engage in meaningful artifact construction within different emerging technologies?
 
- What behavioral patterns do learners display in a constructionist/social constructionist environment?
 
TIMELINE FOR SUBMISSION
Submission portal will be open from 15th November 2017 to 30th April 2018
Submission deadline: 30th April 2018
Author notification: September 30th, 2018
Final approval by Editor-in-chief: November 31st, 2018
​Expected publication date: Early 2019
