La première ébauche de programme du EuroBlog2008 Brussels Symposium vient d’être publiée. Pour rappel, cet évènement se déroulera du 13 au 15 mars dans les batiments de l’IHECS, à Bruxelles. Les thèmes proposés pour cette édition 2008 sont les suivants:
•How can academic research lead and support the ways in which practitioners embrace social media?
•How should academics approach teaching social media (both in terms of course content and pedagogy)?
•What are the societal implications of social media (democracy, accountability, privacy)?
Voici donc un premier jet du programme (qui se précisera dans les semaines à venir):
