WORKSHOP OVERVIEW

The SIGOPEN Developmental Workshop at ICIS 2015 is intended to support researchers investigating:

– The Peer Production of Knowledge Goods (e.g. open source software, hardware, content and design; the collaborative economy and the sharing society; etc.),
– Collective Intelligence, Action and Resources (e.g. open innovation; the wisdom/wealth/power of crowds; social media in extreme events; citizen science; volunteer computing; crowdsourcing/funding; etc.),
– Open Science and Education (e.g. open data/access; publishing and data management conflicts; open teaching and learning; micro-scholarship; open peer-review; etc.),
– And other related topics.

The workshop includes both formal presentations and small group work mentored by internationally respected researchers. The SIGOPEN workshop is amenable to new ideas, and is open to all interested scholars and professionals who are researching in the area of openness as broadly conceived above. The unique and collegial character of the workshop ensures constructive, helpful, and high-quality feedback. The goal is to help move the work forward to publication in other venues.
