CFP - TEEM'18 (Track 15) - Communication, Education and Social Media

Technological Ecosystems for Enhancing Multiculturality

October 24-26, 2018

Salamanca, Spain



There is a scientific consensus that Internet, digital media and social 
media have changed completely the paradigm in Communication and 
Education research. But the revolution is far from completed. In fact, 
the scenario keeps changing day by day, what makes new challenges arose 
constantly. This comes with new risks that have to be, first understood 
and then faced accordingly, but at the same time it makes this field so 
rich and interesting. In this context, studies about the use of social 
media and its effects in education, communication and political or 
social events become relevant. This fact is evident in those projects 
trying to understand the way social networks and digital media work. The 
potential of these new phenomena is still unknown, but the need of 
education in order to comprehend it, use it properly and exploit all its 
possibilities is certain. The issues related with education and 
diffusion present some of the most challenging and urgent aspects in 
connection with communication and social media. Learning how to take 
advantage of these new forms of communication as a way to analyse 
societies or to educate its members (both children and adults) 
constitutes one of the possibilities with greatest potential in the new 
media scenario. Using new communication practices, technologies or 
narratives becomes a very useful tool in order to promote positive 
values or behaviours in societies. This track focuses on the uses of 
digital and social media in educational contexts, as well as experiences 
in which these media are seen as a tool to analyse and change society 
or, in the other direction, experiences in which the possibilities and 
risks of social media that shape the communication paradigm are analysed.
