This free lecture is open to all staff, students and the public.
Information and communication technologies (ICT) do not exist in isolation. How they are designed, developed, adopted, implemented and used is determined by their institutional and cultural contexts.
The multidisciplinary study of social informatics demonstrates how ICT configurations have social consequences, and these can be felt at the level of the individual, group, organisation and society.
In this lecture Professor Hazel Hall will explore some of the implications of the social aspects of computerisation illustrated with reference to research conducted within the Centre for Social Informatics at Edinburgh Napier University
The lecture will take place from 6pm - 7pm in the Lindsay Stewart Lecture Theatre, followed by a drinks reception from 7pm-8pm.
