Uusi, avoin luentosarja digitalisaation tutkimuksesta ihmistieteissä

Tutkijoille on tarjolla avoimia luentoja digitalisaation tutkimuksesta touko- ja kesäkuussa 2021.

Miten tutkijan omaksumat opit ja hyveet toimivat digiyhteiskunnassa? Mitä täytyy ajatella uusiksi ja toteuttaa toisin? Mitattavat minät, tulkitsevat tutkijat -luentosarjassa eri tieteenalojen asiantuntijat esittelevät viimeisintä digiyhteiskuntaan kohdistuvaa yhteiskuntatieteellistä, humanistista ja kasvatustieteellistä tutkimusta erityisesti innovatiivisista teoreettisista ja metodologisista näkökulmista käsin.

Luentosarjalla käsitellään tuoreita, monitieteellisiä ja tieteidenvälisiä tutkimusnäkökulmia ja -menetelmiä, joilla tutkijat ovat tarttuneet elämän ja tutkimuksen digitalisoitumiseen. Avoimet luennot on suunnattu erityisesti yhteiskuntatieteellisten, humanististen ja kasvatustieteiden alojen tutkijoille. Puhujina on digimaailmaa, datafikaatiota ja algoritmejä ihmistieteellisestä näkökulmasta tarkastelevia alansa asiantuntijoita ympäri Suomen.

Kaikille avoimen ja maksuttoman luentosarjan järjestää Itä-Suomen yliopiston DigiSociety-tutkimusyhteisö.

ITK-tutkijatapaaminen siirtynyt syksyyn 2021

FinEd-verkoston artikkelityöpajan kanssa yhteistyössä toteutettava ITK-tutkijatapaaminen on siirtynyt syksyyn 2021. Lisätietoa tapahtuman nettisivuilla.

ITK-tutkijatapaaminen eli Doctoral Consortium tarjoaa väitöstutkijoille mahdollisuuden esitellä tutkimustyötään turvallisessa, ystävällisessä ja kannustavassa ympäristössä. ITK-tutkijatapaamisella on neljä tavoitetta:

  • Tarjota aika ja paikka, jossa tohtorikoulutettavat voivat esitellä tutkimustaan ​​ja tavata muita väitöstutkijoita.
  • Tarjota kokeneempien tutkijoiden ja muiden tohtorikoulutettavien palautetta ja näkökulmia väitöstutkijoille.
  • Tukea tutkijoiden kansallista verkostoitumista ja yhteistyötä institutionaalisten rajojen yli.
  • Tarjota foorumi mahdollisten tulevien tutkijakollegoiden tapaamiseksi.
