Advancing Research in Information Technologies, Learning, and Performance OSRA is a Special Interest Group (SIG) of the Association of Information Systems. SIG-OSRA promotes research and application of information and communication technology to support work processes, improve employee performance, and enhance overall organizational effectiveness in direct support of goals and strategies.
OSRA invites the participation of researchers and other professionals with an interest in integrating information and communication technologies in the workplace. Areas of interest include end-user innovation, business process redesign, project management, security, technology training and support, work group technologies, knowledge management, social media in the workplace, and technology adoption, assimilation and use. Interests span a broad range of technology and applications. Research related to curriculum issues, service learning, and other pedagogical topics—including teaching cases—is also of interest. The special interest group is open to all types of research. SIG-OSRA also supports a model curriculum for end-user information systems and a long-standing peer-refereed journal, the Information Technology, Learning, and Performance Journal (ITLPJ.)
AMCIS 2018 SIG OSRA Track "Organizational Transformation & Information Systems" Call for Mini-Tracks Track Chairs AMCIS 2018 "Digital Disruption" We invite the submission of minitrack proposals to AMCIS 2018, which will be held on August 16-18, 2018 in New Orleans, LA. The conference provides many opportunities for participation, collaboration, and dialogue related to the conference theme, Digital Disruption. Digital disruption is the powerful transformation that drives how businesses create value with new digital technologies. Digital disruption transforms all industries, and manifests itself through a variety of digital tools, services, and artifacts. It fuels more rapid and ongoing innovation in businesses. We look forward to gathering with you in New Orleans to exchange knowledge. Track Description By adopting, adapting, or developing Information Systems (IS), organizations and their IS continually undergo a considerable transformation often referred to as “digital transformation”. As a result, information systems, business models, business processes, and end-user workplaces are perpetually analyzed, rethought, and changed. Nowadays, many systems in organizations are already interconnected to form inter-organizational IS, contributing to a complex IS landscape in current organizations. This renews the importance of analyzing the interplay between IS and organizations from socio-technical and end-user perspectives and the implications of changing IS for end-users and customers, who are increasingly technologically savvy and immersed in this digital transformation. Potential topics of mini-tracks could relate to (not exhaustive):
Journal Fast Track for High Quality Papers High quality and relevant papers from this track will be selected for fast-tracked development towards Internet Research (http://www.emeraldinsight.com/loi/intr). Selected papers will need to expand in content and length in line with the requirements for standard research articles published in the journal. Although the track co-chairs are committed to guiding the selected papers towards final publication, further reviews may be needed before final publication decision can be made. Minitrack Submissions Minitrack proposals need to be submitted online via AMCIS’s submission system between September 20th and October 18th 2017. A submission guide has been posted here: http://amcis2018.aisnet.org/submissions/timeline/.
