*Track Description*



This track focuses on advancing research and application of information and
communication technologies in the end-user environment to support work
processes, improve employee performance, and enhance overall organizational
effectiveness in direct support of goals and strategies.



We invite research papers on topics related to integrating information and
communication technologies in the workplace including end-user innovation,
business process management, project management, technology training and
support, industry specific applications, collaborative and work group
technologies, knowledge management as an end-user technology, and
technology adoption, assimilation and use.  Papers related to curriculum
issues, service learning, and other pedagogical topics—including teaching
cases—are also invited.



The track is open to all types of research. Best papers from the
mini-tracks will be considered for submission to the Information
Technology, Learning, and Performance Journal (ITLPJ).



Contributions may deal with, but are not limited to, the following topics:



·         End-user adoption of Web 2.0 and virtual technologies (with a
focus on social media and collaborative value creation in the work place)

·         End-users and business process management/transformation

·         End-user initiated customization of ICTs

·         End-user innovation

·         End-user training, support, and knowledge management in

·         Understanding and managing end-user IS innovations in complex
organizational networks and ecosystems

·         Integrating and engaging end-users beyond organization boundaries
(with a focus on crowdsourcing and open innovation)

·         Integrating technology into the workplace (with a focus on
managing “bring your own device,” “bring your own software,” integrating
mobile devices, organizational routines, work processes, and improving
process and employee performance)





*Minitrack Chairs*



Minitrack chairs will be responsible for a) promoting their minitrack to
