This Conference built connections among Internet >researchers from across a range disciplines and from around the globe. In >October of 2001, INTERNET RESEARCH 2.0 will offer an opportunity to >reinforce and extend these connections. IR 2.0 will bring together >prominent scholars, researchers, practitioners, and students from many >disciplines and fields for a program of keynote addresses, paper >presentations, formal discussions, and informal exchanges. > >IR 2.0 will be held on the campus of the University of Minnesota, one of >the world's most technologically innovative campuses. The conference will >provide opportunities to network, learn from other researchers, hear from >leading players in Internet development, and take in the sights and sounds >of the Twin Cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul. > >The Association of Internet Researchers invites paper, presentation, and >panel proposals on topics that address social, cultural, political, >economic, and aesthetic aspects of the Internet. We welcome submissions >from any discipline, as well as work from those producing new media or >working in multimedia studies. Panel presentations which establish >connections across disciplines, institutions and/or continents are >especially encouraged. We also seek presentations which will make creative >use of Internet technologies and techniques, including (but not limited >to) digital art and e-poster sessions. > >We suggest the following as possible themes for proposals. > >* communication-based Internet studies >* digital art >* distance education and pedagogy >* e-commerce and business >* gender, sexualities, and the Internet >* human-computer interaction (HCI) >* international perspectives on the Internet >* Internet technologies >* law and the Internet, including privacy and copyright issues >* methodological issues in Internet studies >* new media and Internet journalism >* psychology and the Internet >* the "Digital Divide" >* race and cyberspace >* rhetoric and technology > >This list is not meant to be exclusive, but rather to trigger ideas and >encourage submissions from a range of disciplines. When we are able to >identify scholars from a range of disciplines pursuing shared themes, we >will work to bring these scholars together for panel sessions. > >When preparing proposals, please consider the convention's conventions: > >* Most conference sessions will be 90 minutes, with no less than the >final thirty minutes reserved for discussion. > >* The average time allotted for a paper or presentation will be 15 minutes. > >If these time constraints are not appropriate for your panel/presentation, >please highlight this in your proposal.
