    Nyckelord :rhetoric of technology; computing history; technological discourse; technological frame; actor network; STS; social construction; computerisation; information technology; computer science; government policy; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP;

    Sammanfattning : Ever since the computer was introduced some 50 years ago, its role in society has been increasing. From being a tool for scientists and technicians, the computer has become a concern for everyone. Different actors engaged in introducing — or denouncing — this technology, have used many strong words for winning others to the cause. LÄS MER

    Författare :Virginia Grande; Mats Daniels; Anne-Kathrin Peters; Anders Berglund; Päivi Kinnunen; Alison Clear; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Role model; educator; teacher; identity; norms; ethics; virtue ethics; care ethics; ethics of freedom; emotions; professional competencies; computing education; engineering education; higher education; Datavetenskap med inriktning mot datavetenskapens didaktik; Computer Science with specialization in Computer Science Education Research;

    Sammanfattning : Role model is a term used in everyday language and literature on education, particularly on diversity, equity, inclusion, and access, describing topics such as motivation and inspiration. However, role model, as a loosely defined concept, is understood and used in different ways. LÄS MER

  4. 18. Technology Encounters : Exploring the essence of ordinary computing

    Författare :Mareike Glöss; Annika Waern; Mats Edenius; Paul Dourish; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Everyday life; ICT; phenomenology; ethnography; cultural analysis;

    Sammanfattning : As computing technology has become a vital part of everyday life, studies have increasingly scrutinized the underlying meaning of computational things. As different devices become interwoven with daily practices and routines, there is a growing interest in understanding not only their functional meaning in computational terms but also their meaning in relation to other non-computation artefacts.

  5. 19. Complex activity recognition and context validation within social interaction tools

    Författare :Saguna Saguna; Christian Becker; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; context awareness; activity recognition; social networks; situation awareness; HCI; complex activity recognition; sensors; Prototype evaluation; SACAAR; OAT4CDAT; online activity toolkit; context driven activity theory; wearable computing; smart homes; presence; machine learning; Markov chains; Pervasive Mobile Computing; Distribuerade datorsystem;

    Sammanfattning : Human activity recognition using sensing technology is crucial in achieving pervasive and ubiquitous computing paradigms. It can be applied in many domains such as health-care, aged-care, personal-informatics, industry, sports and military. LÄS MER

  7. 20. Being Multisituated : Characterizing laptoping in networked situations

    Författare :Tomas Lindroth; Magnus Bergquist; Ulrika Lundh Snis; Högskolan Väst; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Laptoping; laptoper; interaction order; actor-network theory; networked situation; multisituationism.; Informatik; Informatics; laptoping; laptoper; interaction order; actor-network theory; networked situation; multisituation;

    Sammanfattning : During the last 30 years mobile IT has gone from being an exotic ingredient to an everyday artifact. This thesis presents an ethnographic study of laptop use in a university setting. The thesis concludes that it is no longer enough to describe the use of portable IT as an activity in its own right, i.e. LÄS MER
