Abstract

This Session for Interaction and Engagement seeks to facilitate a productive discussion around iConference2015 about the various challenges that the recent revelations of mass suspicionless surveillance by the National Security Agency (NSA) pose for the iSchool community and how we might respond individually and collectively. The session will be conducted in three main phases: an initial brainstorming exercise that will refine a draft Statement outlining the possible set of responses; a conversational engagement phase during the conference in which session participants will individually discuss selected aspects of the draft Statement with conference attendees; and a wrap up session that will refine the Statement in light of the feedback generated during the conference. In preparation for the conference, a provisional draft of the Statement will be circulated for comment. Follow-up after the conference will consist of finalizing the Statement, publicizing it for wider community endorsement and facilitating concrete actions. Follow @NSAiSchool on Twitter.
