Explore common data collection, management, and sharing practices in information technology and emerging technologies. Students will examine the human, social, and ethical impact of these practices and work on group projects to design data systems that are centered around broader impact and social responsibilities.
Instructor Description
Explore common data collection, management, and sharing practices in information technology and emerging technologies, such as search engines and AI systems. Students will read papers and engage in discussions about the pros and cons of established data practices and learn about the three main components of responsible data management: 1) consent and ownership, 2) privacy and anonymity, and 3) broader impact. Students will also practice how to collect data, make data-driven decisions, and design data-driven products through group projects as UX designers, researchers, and data scientists. The course will bring in interdisciplinary perspectives with guest speakers from archive science, engineering, and respponsible AI, to provide a holistic view of broader data ecosystems and infrastructures.

The course will bring in interdisciplinary perspectives with guest speakers from archive science, engineering, and responsible AI, to provide a holistic view of broader data ecosystems and infrastructures. Students will learn the pros and cons of different data collection, management, and sharing practices. Students will gain hands-on experience with designing data-driven products or systems as UX designers, researchers, and data scientists. Students will also be exposed to interdisciplinary research on important ethical considerations about data, e.g. privacy and consent.
