[Commlist] CFP - ECREA DCC pre-conference workshop: "The Work-in-Progress in Social Media Research"

> ECREA’s Digital Culture and Communication (DCC) section 
> invites applications for /The Work-in-Progress in Social Media 
> Research/: a one-day remote ECREA pre-conference workshop to be held 
> *online via Zoom* on *Wednesday 12th October 2022*.
>
> We often encounter scholars' work at a finished stage – like a 
> published article or a polished presentation – while the trials and 
> tribulations of research are often experienced in isolation. This is 
> especially the case for social media researchers, whose field sites 
> can disappear overnight and who face new and challenging questions 
> about the methods, ethics, and sometimes legalities of their work. The 
> aim of this workshop is to create a collaborative space for social 
> media researchers to feed back on each other’s ideas and concerns, and 
> help to inspire progress in what has been an extremely challenging 
> couple of years.
>
> We invite social media researchers to submit between 500-750 words 
> about their “work-in-progress”, outlining the following as best they can:
>
>   * The current stage of your work-in-progress
>       o Oh, this could be interesting!
>       o Ongoing research
>       o I think I’m getting there…
>   * Research context and background
>   * Research questions
>   * Research methods/approach
>   * Research ethics
>   * Which aspect of your research would you like to address in more
>     depth (Choose one aspect and pose a question):
>   * Methods
>   * Theories/concepts/research design
>   * Research ethics
>   * Other
>
>
> Workshop attendees will be grouped together according to the aspect of 
> their work-in-progress they wish to address in more depth, ranging 
> from theoretical contributions to research methods and ethics.
>
> We are also *delighted* to announce our two keynote speakers for the 
> event: Keisha Bruce (University of Nottingham) and Dr. Hannah 
> Ditchfield (University of Sheffield). Details about their talks will 
> follow.
>
> The deadline for applications is *31 May 2022 by 5:00pm GMT*, and the 
> notification of acceptance will be 30th June 2022. Applications should 
> be sent via this Google Form 
> <https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSddPq_-IzLxxiGN2jiZrAhujrKfJaV0iz9g3jeBq65f5rVOpA/viewform?usp=sf_link>, 
> or as a PDF to (y.gerrard /at/ sheffield.ac.uk) 
> <mailto:(y.gerrard /at/ sheffield.ac.uk)>. We welcome applications from 
> scholars at all career stages, in particular early career researchers, 
> and from non-DCC members. We welcome submissions of work-in-progress 
> at every stage of completion – from vague “this-could-be-interesting” 
> ideas, to on-going research, to nearly-completed works.
