Estelle Clements is a Media scholar known for her work on Digital Civics. She created the first definition, critical underpinning, and pedagogical model for this concept. In 2010 she actualised her pedagogical model, launching the first digital civics pedagogy project.[1][2]
Ideas and Contributions
[edit]Digital Civics
[edit]Identifying digital civics as “a new conception of civics, a civics altered at its very core by the significant changes taking place in our world as a result of digital convergence and technological advancement”[3], Clements argues that digital civics must ground itself in an appropriate philosophical foundation.[1] She advocates strongly for the adoption of Luciano Floridi’s conception of the philosophy of information, and drew from his philosophy to formulate the first definition, critical underpinning, and pedagogical model for digital civics.[4] Her conceptual underpinning identifies four pillars: philosophy, history, ethics, and civic structures.[5] and she has also formulated a framework based on this for use in digital civics initiatives and projects, including policy.[3] Clements’ work on digital civics has been forwarded in research efforts for countering digital extremism in educational contexts[6], and environmentalism[7]. Clements herself has argued digital civics utility to combat issues of data privacy[8][9][10].
Clements credits her interest in digital civics and its pedagogy to her own student experiences at Morinville Community High School, and Acadia University, as both schools pioneered experimental, technologically mediated, education projects in the late 1990s.[1]
Digital Civics Pedagogy
[edit]In 2010, Clements formulated and launched the first digital civics pedagogy project.[1][2][11] The project ran as part of Dublin City Library's One city One book initative, through Dublin’s UNESCO city of Literature Office.[1][2] Utilising social media platforms, a host of experts and academics from around the world took part in a month long historical re-enactment with subjects geared around teaching different aspects of civic life in the digital age[12]. Clements drew heavily on Luciano Floridi’s discussions of ontological continuity in the digital age to formulate a transmediated educational experience that used digital tools and technologies concurrently with offline world events.[1][4]
Shadow Footprints
[edit]Building on the idea of Digital Footprints, and the work of David Garcia on Shadow Profiles[13], Clements published with a colleague, exploring the notion of Shadow Footprints.[10] The work uses her digital civics framework to argue that scientific data provision opens the opportunity for later surveillant use of this data, including of persons who had actively sought to keep their data private.[14]
Artistic Interests
[edit]Clements has written, produced and directed a number of Spectacle and Promenade theatre performances, most notably Bram Stoker’s Wedding, an historical re-enactment at St. Anne’s church in Dublin.[15][16][17][18] The production was part of Dublin City Libraries One City One Book project contributing to its successful bid for UNESCO city of Literature designate status.
In 2010, she worked with the newly formed UNESCO city of literature Dublin Office on Oscar Wilde’s Picture of Dorian Gray, formulating a number of productions linked to her doctoral studies.[1] She was also in 'Portrait of a Zombie'.[19]
