Abstract | ||
|---|---|---|
AbstractActivity Theory, based on the work of Vygotsky and colleagues, has developed into a contemporary social theory for studying work and social activity. In the last 20years it has become internationalised and accepted in the Organisation, Management, Human Computer Interaction, Social-Psychology and Education fields; yet traditionally its use in IS has remained limited. In recent years there has been growing interest in its use in Information Systems IS research. This Special Issue aims to act as a compendium of outstanding research, focusing on the use, development and contribution of Activity Theory in IS research. It also aims to stimulate discourse and advance the use of Activity Theory in IS research. |
