One of the largest geographical areas and groups of IS scholars in the AIS that is not currently covered by an AIS Chapter is Canada and Canadians respectively. A proposal to establish a Chapter covering this Region 1 group is being prepared and input on its formation is being sought from potential members. The Canadian Chapter of the Association for Information Systems (CANAIS) will be a Chapter of the Association for Information Systems (AIS) serving Canada and Canadians. The purpose of the Chapter will be to promote the exchange of ideas, experiences, and knowledge among scholars and professionals in Canada – and Canadian scholars and professionals employed in other countries – engaged in the development, management, and use of information systems and technology. The various activities of the CANAIS will be to promote the exchange of professional communications among scholars and professionals responsible for education, design, implementation, and management of information systems in both private and public organizations. The proposed activities of the Chapter include: · Providing a locally-focused forum for those concerned with all aspects of information systems; · Providing an opportunity for the exchange of ideas concerning the management of information systems with member counterparts; · Conducting locally-focused programs and conferences for the benefit of members; and · Providing a means for critical examination of the problems and opportunities associated with information systems in Canada. As part of the development of the proposal, we are seeking current AIS members who either are working in Canada or are Canadians abroad to be a founding member of CANAIS or to serve on the Executive Committee or the Advisory Board for the Chapter. In addition, we are seeking input from potential members on its future activities and development in order to refine its value proposition to members. Please contact either Elaine Mosconi ([email protected]) or Jim Denford ([email protected]) by 15 January 2024 if you are interested in being a founding member of CANAIS, serving it in an executive or advisory capacity, or providing advice and guidance on its activities and value proposition.

➡️ 26. Doktorierenden Seminar in Kassel ⬅️ Von 13. bis 15. September 2023 fand das 26. Doktorierendenseminar zu den Themen IT, Service, Innovation und Collaboration (#WISIC) in den Räumlichkeiten der Universität Kassel statt. Das Seminar hat zum Ziel, den Austausch der beteiligten Lehrstühle der University of Kassel, University of St.Gallen und Universität Osnabrück zu fördern und neue Impulse für die jeweiligen Dissertationsprojekte zu generieren. An dem Workshop nahmen insgesamt 19 Doktorandinnen und Doktoranden teil und stellten ihre Forschungsthemen in unterschiedlichen Formaten vor. Die Auswahl des Präsentationsformats erfolgte entsprechend dem individuellen Promotionsfortschritt und Status. Durch intensive Diskussionen mit anderen Doktorierenden sowie Professoren und Post-Docs konnten die Teilnehmenden wertvolles Feedback und neue Ideen für ihre Dissertationsprojekte gewinnen und diese vorantreiben. Ein weiteres Highlight neben den Vorträgen war die Keynote von Sabine Matook (The University of Queensland) mit dem Titel "Social Media's Stockholm Syndrome: Are we hold hostage to our technology?". Darin diskutierte sie die Hass-Liebe Beziehung, die bei der Nutzung von Sozialen Medien entsteht, welchen Einfluss das Zeitempfinden dabei hat und welchen Einfluss der Algorithmus des Sozialen Mediums auf die Zeitwahrnehmung des Nutzers hat. Um diesen Vortrag und die anderen Präsentationen in entspannter Atmosphäre zu diskutieren und sich auszutauschen, fand nach den Vorträgen ein gemeinsames Abendessen statt. Ein Dankeschön an alle Beteiligten, die dieses WISIC zu einem produktiven und konstruktiven Doktorierendenseminar gemacht haben! 🙌💡 #WISIC2023 #Doktorierenden #Researchprogress

Since 2020, over 2,000 UQ Business School students have learned low-code with Mendix as part of the Business Information Systems course run by Associate Professor Sabine Matook During this time, students have helped deliver applications for a number of not-for-profit organizations, including Variety - the Children's Charity of Queensland, Brisbane Living Heritage, and most recently, a local indigenous organization #Sharoma. This has not only helped give back to the local community and worthy organizations but also provided enriched learning experiences and opportunities to the students whilst enhancing their employability with in-demand skills. We're grateful for the support and collaboration with UQ and Professor Matook. We can't wait to see what the students build in the future! https://spkl.io/60424YCyA
