Call for Papers for the LINSEC International Conference, to be heldon June 13 and 14, 2019, atthe Maison Méditerranéenne des Sciences de l’Homme in Aix-en-Provence:

The growing role of digital technologies across all spheres of society leads us not only to incorporate their contributions into the social and cultural practices we analyze, but also to examine how educational, cultural, and artistic institutions are engaging with these new phenomena. This conference aims to shed light on these themes in order to contextualize these practices—whether active, hybrid, differentiated, or collaborative—and thereby better understand the issues related to digital literacy, namely the full range of writing and reading techniques and practices, regardless of the social, educational, cultural, or artistic context in which they are exercised. Proposed papers must fall under one of thefollowing thematicareas
Theme 1: Digital Literacy and Education;
