Towards a Unified Framework for Responsible Social Computing Undergraduate and Graduate Education

Published: 13 November 2024 Publication History

Abstract

Social computing education is gaining traction across computer science and information science disciplines, yet lacks a standardized pedagogical framework for topics to teach, as well as strategies for engaging students. This workshop aims to convene experts in CSCW to develop a cohesive framework for undergraduate and graduate social computing courses. Emphasizing ethical and cultural considerations, the workshop will explore core topics spanning sociological, psychological, technical, and design aspects of social computing. Through interactive sessions, attendees will collaboratively shape a curricular framework that is responsive to diverse country contexts and ethical imperatives. At the conclusion of the workshop, we anticipate we will publish a framework for topics and pedagogical approaches to social computing, as well as a repository of existing courses.
