Stakeholder - Learning Design

This dataset 'Stakeholder - Learning Design’ is a component of a Doctor of Philosophy conducted by
candidate Alexander Hayes (3919493) titled 'The Socioethical Implications of Body
Worn Computers: An Ethnographic Study'. This research was conducted in the Faculty
of Engineering and Information Systems, School of Computing and Information
Technology (SCIT) at the University of Wollongong with research strength Innovation in
Business & Social Research under Principal Supervisor Professor Katina Michael
(University of Wollongong) and Associate Supervisor Dr Teemu Leinonen (Aalto
University Finland). This thesis explores the socio-ethical implications of body worn
computers (BWC) using an ethnographic approach. Furthermore, a subset, body worn
cameras (BWCs), combines data with value added constancy through Location Based
Services (LBS) over wireless network connections. The aim of this investigation was to
engage global leaders from trans-disciplinary stakeholder groups in semi-structured
interviews, conversations and events, situating a review of the social impact and ethical implications of BWCs. A critical discourse analysis using a Foucauldian
approach reveals power relations, which are then infused through narrative with
unique intercultural perspectives, differentiating ‘location’ from ‘place’. The author of
this study has subsequently identified through Grounded Theory that BWCs are causal
agencies for disconnect from proper culture which can be addressed through the
application of Ngikalikarra, a unique framework for empathetic understanding of place
and community engagement. The full thesis can be accessed at
