Congratulations to Informatics Graduate Student Meg Cramer and Informatics Faculty Member Gillian R. Hayes on having their paper,
‘Acceptable Use in the Age of Connected Youth: How Risks, Policies, and Promises of the Future Impact Student Access to Mobile Phones and Social Media in Schools’ accepted to IEEE Pervasive Computing.

Abstract: “To fully engage pervasive computing technologies and youth as a significant area of inquiry, we must ask why mobile devices and social media applications that support educational learning objectives are much less pervasive in the classroom than in other parts of youth life. First, we discuss the potential mobile devices and social media have for learning, both from an individual skills and socialization perspective. Then we turn to the development of Acceptable Use Policies, which dictate the prescribed use of mobile devices on school campuses as a response to the risks schools face in dealing with disruptive or harmful speech. We describe some perceived risks and observed problems for educators with regard to youth online that characterize the attitudes toward pervasive technologies in formal learning settings. Finally, we close with some discussion of the way forward, toward a greater understanding of the youth experience with pervasive computing technologies and greater access to these systems and applications within the formal schooling context.”
