[ecrea] Invitation to Conference "When dialogue is more than a buzzword"

Mon May 16 04:44:26 GMT 2011




*INVITATION TO PARTICIPATE IN ONE-DAY CONFERENCE:*

* *

*When dialogue is more than a buzzword:*

*Tackling the complexities of dialogic knowledge production and communication*

*Department of Communication, Business and Information Technologies, Roskilde University, Denmark, Friday 26 August 2011, 10.00-16.00, Room 41.1.*


The conference takes its starting-point in the so-called dialogic turn in the production and communication of knowledge whereby communication is conceived as a dialogue among participants rather than a one-way flow of knowledge to a less knowledgeable target group. The purpose of the conference is to further our understanding of the complexities and dilemmas of "walking the talk" of dialogue in collaborative knowledge production and communication. It is designed to build bridges across theory and practice by bringing research on dialogue into dialogue with practices, with a view to enriching both. The format will be a combination of presentations and workshop activities in groups, in which we will draw on theories and concepts of dialogue across the traditions of Dialogic Communication Theory, Science and Technology Studies and Action Research.


The conference is organised and funded by the NordForsk Network for the Study of the Dialogic Communication of Research (www.dialogue.ruc.dk <http://www.dialogue.ruc.dk>).It is free of charge, and all those who are interested are welcome to participate. If you would like to participate, please register by email to Louise Phillips ((louisep /at/ ruc.dk)) by Monday, 15 August 2011.
