Call for papers:
'Digital technologies and educational integrity'
A special issue of the online refereed journal IJEI
Edited by Chris Moore and Ruth Walker
University of Wollongong
This special issue of the International Journal for Educational 
Integrity (IJEI) seeks articles that address the impact of digital 
technologies on educational integrity. Many different terms have 
emerged in an attempt to capture the shifting terrain of media use 
and users in various networked environments: 'social', 
'participatory', 'user-generated' or simply 'new' media. Common to 
the online interactive spaces of Web2.0 is the challenge of 
technologies and practices that are capable of changing the way we 
teach, learn, and share knowledge. How can we best engage and 
support students and colleagues coming to terms with the dynamics of 
these technologies and the development of new literacies?
We are particularly interested in innovative research from scholars 
in cultural and media studies and/or the scholarship of teaching and 
learning, and welcome interest from other disciplinary researchers, 
who might consider a broad range of questions about digital 
technologies that critically unpack the conversation about academic 
integrity and go beyond a preoccupation with plagiarism and research 
ethics. Critical voices of concern, examples of best practice and 
consideration of the perceived impact of digital technology on 
institutional boundaries are keenly sought as is research exploring 
the collaborative approaches to social and participatory media that 
challenge conceptions about authorial identity and scholarly writing 
practices. Research examining the development of new literacies that 
celebrate the appropriation, adaptation and transformation of source 
material would fit well within the scope of this special issue. We 
also welcome reviews of relevant books or publica
 tions.

online learning practices.
