You have reached the Official Website of Jonathan Bishop. To all intents and purposes, I am an information technology polymath, which I enact through professional activities as a researcher, social entrepreneur, and jurist. I make it my purpose to seek out new ways to make society fairer through application of knowledge in the fields of information technology, the arts, law and sciences.
Some things that are worth knowing about me are:
- My seminal research paper, ‘Increasing participation in online communities‘ has been rank in the Top 25 of Science Direct papers in computer science in 2007, one of the Top 8 Brilliant Posts about Online Communities by FeverBee, and one of the Top 20 most cited papers of all time in the Computers in Human Behaviour journal.
- My seminal piece of e-learning technology for people with autism, PARLE, reached national finals, including the New Statesman New Media Awards 2004 and the Bright Sparks E-Learning Awards of the same year. My LLM degree, on which I specialised in e-learning law in the EU put me in the Top 5% of law graduates in 2007.
- My seminal social change project, The Emotivate Project, led to Fellowship of the Royal Society for the encouragement of arts, manufactures and commerce.
