This call for papers is for publication of a special issue of Connectist. It is combined with a call for submissions to a virtual conference on the same theme, which may precede publication. Participants in the virtual conference on Digital Futures: A Human Centred Digitization and Communication will benefit from feedback and an opportunity to refine or develop work, prior to submission to the associated journal. Successful submission to the journal does not depend upon participation in the conference, and nor does participation in the conference guarantee publication, but we aim that these two activities will support each other, and our participants, as they develop work for publication in the Connectist special issue Digital Futures: A Human Centred Digitization and Communication


In this issue we would like to explore how the changing role of technology in our communication experience, and understanding of, societies, economies, human relations, businesses, and environment.  We would like to question how individuals and societies can shape the future using technology, and how digital futures will change human experience. We are interested in exploring the optimism that has attached to 4IR; how technology and digital transformation can be deployed to improve the quality of communication and life in all areas. We believe the more we understand about the impact of this change on our lives, we can be the part of this change and we have the ability to manage this change. We welcome all articles exploring the human-digital technologies relationship in communication and we have two specific questions to answer:

How digital technologies will positively contribute future of human communication?

How can we deal with the negative outcomes of digital technologies on human communication?

In these subject areas:

Media and creative industries

Smart environment and smart cities

Future of work

Equitable digital future

Future of education

Understanding of new society

Consumer engagement and consumer behaviour.

Methodology:

We only accept papers that arise from primary research, and we welcome submission that embrace both traditional and emerging methods (gamification, eye tracking studies, mobile ethnography, biometric response etc.)
