Cultural resilience: The production of rural community heritage, digital archives and the role of volunteers. (2015)
Journal Article
Beel, D. E., Wallace, C. D., Webster, G., Nguyen, H., Tait, E., Macleod, M., & Mellish, C. (2017). Cultural resilience: The production of rural community heritage, digital archives and the role of volunteers. Journal of Rural Studies, 54, 459-468. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jrurstud.2015.05.002

The following paper addresses a lacuna in the literature relating to the concept of resilience. To date, cultural activity in relation to resilient communities has been given little attention and this paper will highlight how the lens of community he...

Youth e-mental health in Scotland (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Pennington, D. (2015, October). Youth e-mental health in Scotland. Paper presented at BCS Health Informatics Scotland Conference, Edinburgh

One in ten UK youth have mental health issues (Watson & Douglas, 2012), and girls may be at higher risk than boys (Levin, Currie, & Muldoon, 2009). Predictors of mental health issues and emotional distress have been identified in area youth, such as... Read More about Youth e-mental health in Scotland.

We explore the interaction between digital games and human values. HCI as a field is increasingly focused on the importance of engaging with broader discussions around human values. Games are an ideal medium for reflecting on social, ethical and poli... Read More about Interdisciplinary Reflections on Games and Human Values.

Women in ICT: exploring professional Identity on an executive masters program (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Smith, S., Smith, C. F., & Varey, A. (2015, October). Women in ICT: exploring professional Identity on an executive masters program. Paper presented at 6th Annual Conference on Computer Science Education: Innovation and Technology (CSEIT 2015), Singapore

Despite years of purposeful activity there is still a shortfall in the numbers of women enrolling onto computing courses in the UK and elsewhere, while many who join the profession then leave. This ‘leaky-pipeline’ phenomenon is a concern for employe... Read More about Women in ICT: exploring professional Identity on an executive masters program.
