David Millard Email & Phone Number

I have been lucky enough to be involved in Hypertext and Web research for over fifteen years, firstly in the area of Open, Adaptive and Contextual hypermedia and more recently in the areas of Social Media, Linked Data, UX Design, Narrative Systems, and the emerging discipline of Web Science, particularly the impact of Digital Literacy on education and learning. I am interested in the ways that people use information systems in-the-wild, and how we can use emergent social, organisational and semantic structures to help them make sense of their world.I am a founding member of the Web and Internet Science (WAIS) research group, and am Associate Director of Research for the University’s Centre for Innovation in Technology and Education (CITE), which aims to create 21st century learning tools for University staff and students and develop a more digitally literate university community. I also sit on the steering group for the Web Science Doctoral Training Centre (DTC), and am a member of the University’s cross-faculty Digital Economy Group.In my spare time I am the Head of UCAS Admissions for the School of Electronics and Computer Science, and for fun I bask in the reflected glory of my brilliant research students and talented developers.Specialties: web science, narrative systems, user experience design, human computer interaction, e-learning, m-learning, digital literacy, social media, information modelling, research strategy, project management, computer science pedagogy
