8 January 2009
The British Library Conference Centre, London
http://patternlanguagenetwork.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Groups.DigitalIdentities/
We use the term ‘digital identity’ to refer to the online representation of an individual within a community, as adopted by that individual and projected by others. An individual may have multiple digital identities in multiple communities.
Eduserv has recently funded three projects on digital identity as a result of our 2008 grants call. This workshop will help the projects gather case-studies about the ways in which digital identity is currently manifest in UK higher education. This invitiation-only event is aimed at people who have an interest in the issues around digital identity in higher education including employers, HR staff, careers guidance staff, standards experts, students and academics.
