About the conference
The conference is based on the cross-disciplinary research program
Competence and Media Convergence (CMC) 2004-2007, which represents five
university faculties: Arts, Law, Mathematics & Natural Sciences,
Education, and Social Sciences and their international networks. This
conference aims to sum up achievements from this program.
New types of competencies develop in a complex and highly
differentiated society. In brief, there is an increasing degree of
specialization taking place that demands systems for integrating new
types of competencies. A central challenge of contemporary
society is thus the challenge to cross borders between everyday life
and institutional arenas.
Convergence appears in technology-related changes and shifting
boundaries between telecommunication, information systems, and media
technologies. It reflects how previously distinct sectors have become
integrated: networks are no longer technology specific, and there is
steady change in services and content.
The conference will approach these themes in following tracks:
Exploring Digital Design
Learning across Sites
Working Life
Media Convergence
Authority and Literacy
We invite participants to propose poster presentationsrelated to the
different thematic tracks before October 15th.
