E-participation

What is participation.
Role of advocates in e-participation?
Technology can disable, as a choice of systems
Professional staff resistance, technophobia,

What are the opportunities for e-participation?
People need to find a niche, and that niche needs to be enabled...
Is the cloud easier to use than artefacts?
Does everyone want to participate, are their differing characters and motivations which shade people's approaches to participation?

BARRIERS; Risk Averse approaches in institutions often lead to restrictions on the use of social technologies, which might be a debate about control

Opportunities

Increasing social interaction and opportunities

Gives people a voice - 'hierachy of discourse' is disrupted

Provides tools for what people want to do - talk to each other and share things

connect/share/communicate/inspire - and disrupt in a positive sense

Technology can provide a focus for joining different groups together

Barriers

Schools banning mobile phones - why? Seen as threat to classroom control

Maybe when a technology becomes ubiquitous, it is seen as 'bad' (like TV). 

Social control of technology - constrains how it's used.

There are dangers of the cloud - who decides, what information is collected by you.

Distinction between using and owning the space.

Barriers& opportunities

Barriers are:
Time, cost, inaccessible for people with disabilities, desire, access to services,

Opportunities:
Anonymous , manage persona, collaborative, access to service, picture sharing, reach, community, reduce isolation
