ePIC 2013 - The 11th conference on ePortfolio and Identity

Call for papers: ePIC 2013 - The 11th conference on ePortfolio and IdentityCall for papers: ePIC 2013 - The 11th conference on ePortfolio and Identity
Following the rich discussions triggered by the presence of Mozilla Open Badges at ePIC 2012, the 11th ePortfolio and Identity Conference intends to explore further the concept of 'openness' in relation to the themes traditionally addressed by the conference. In particular, as ePortfolio and Open Badges are containers of personal data, what is their place in what some predict as the next big revolution: Open Me — open personal data?
The conference will take place on 8-10 July, 2013
Deadline for abstracts submission: 11 March

Contemporary media (digital, social and mobile) is transforming the landscape of identity, education, employment, culture, technologies and politics. The centralised, top-down, mass media model on which most of our institutions are based is facing assaults from the emerging decentralised, bottom-up, networked, agile social knowledge media. While old power centres are being challenged, new ones are appearing: they are based on the systematic collection, analysis and exploitation of the mass of data produced in our daily life. And we are busily coding our actions and thoughts for Google and Facebook to monetise them. In this context, how can we create the conditions for the emancipation of individuals towards a truly open society?
Authors are invited to address ePortfolio and identity issues in relation to:
    open ePortfolio and open badges
    open identity and open data
    open learning and open educational resources
    open assessment and open accreditation
    open employment and open business
    open architecture and open infrastructure
Key conference questions, in relation to ePortfolio and identity, may include (but are not limited to):
    How to support individual and community learning?
    How to contribute to the identity construction process?
    How to facilitate the recognition and accreditation learning?
    How to support lifelong learning, orientation and employability?
    How to support the acquisition of 21st century skills?
    How to create an ePortfolio architecture and infrastructure?
Deadline for abstracts submission: 11 March.
