Digitalization for a Better Tomorrow: Perspective of an Is Scholar


Speaker


Abstract

In this general talk, I will discuss digitalization and its impacts using the example of digital classrooms in schools. I will highlight the utopian and dystopian narratives on digitalization and argue that both narratives are incomplete, polarizing, and not particularly helpful. Indeed, Information Systems scholars may be in a unique position to offer a balanced perspective and positively influence digitalisation's role in organizations and society. To conclude the presentation, I will offer some implications for research and practice.
