Active and Passive Decisions: How Ethical Choices Are Made (and Missed) in NLP Research

While AI ethics interventions often focus on how researchers should navigate consequential choices, they may overlook a prior question: when do researchers recognize they are making a decision at all? This qualitative study examines how academic NLP teams confront “decision moments” -- junctures where latent alternati…

"I get hives when I come on here": Persisting Through Platform-Delivered Microaggressions on LinkedIn

LinkedIn is central to salaried job search and professional networking. In a career development program for adults seeking upward socioeconomic mobility through middle-wage computing work, we aimed to use LinkedIn to find and develop new social ties. However, we could not use the platform for this purpose. Through a p…

When Workers Want to Say No: A View into Critical Consciousness and Workplace Democracy in Data Work

In this paper we describe and reflect upon the development of critical consciousness and workplace democracy within an experimental workplace called DataWorks. Through DataWorks, we hire adults from communities historically minoritized in computing education and data careers, and train them in entry-level data skills…

Reimagining Meaningful Data Work through Citizen Science

Data work is often completed by crowdworkers, who are routinely dehumanized, disempowered, and sidelined. We turn to citizen science to reimagine data work, highlighting collaborative relationships between citizen science project managers and volunteers. Though citizen science and traditional crowd work entail similar…

Interrogating Data Work as a Community of Practice

We apply Lave & Wenger’s construct of a community of practice to identify and position members of the data work community of practice, focusing on members on the periphery who have received less attention – as compared to full practitioners (e.g., data scientists). Reporting on results of interviews with 19 civic work…

Reflections on Assets-Based Design: A Journey Towards A Collective of Assets-Based Thinkers

The field of Computer-Supported Cooperative Work (CSCW) has long recognized a socio-technical gap complicating the design of technologies that can sustainably meet social needs. In response, a growing body of research advocates for assets-based design, an approach that seeks to build upon what the individuals and comm…

Exploring Approaches to Data Literacy Through a Critical Race Theory Perspective

In this paper, we describe and analyze a workshop developed for a work training program called DataWorks. In this workshop, data workers chose a topic of their interest, sourced and processed data on that topic, and used that data to create presentations. Drawing from discourses of data literacy; epistemic agency and…

Cultural Clash: Exploring How Studio-Based Pedagogy Impacts Learning for Students in HCI Classrooms

A number of computing departments have adapted studio-based pedagogy for teaching Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) to help students develop creative design skills. These efforts have shown promise, however, some challenges that emerge when integrating studio-based pedagogy into computing programs have been neglected b…

Culture in Action: Unpacking Capacities to Inform Assets-Based Design

The field of Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) aims at securing a lasting impact for technology-based interventions in the context of social inequities. Increasingly, HCI scholars are proposing assets-based design as an effective approach towards this issue. Rather than starting from people's needs and deficits, this a…

User's Role in Platform Infrastructuralization: WeChat as an Exemplar

Recent years have witnessed the rise of platforms such as Facebook and Google. Gigantic in scope and becoming omnipresent, these platforms are acquiring qualities of infrastructure, which is large-scale connected systems that support people's activities invisibly. Recent scholarship has identified WeChat, the most pop…

The Parenting Actor-Network of Latino Immigrants in the United States

The field of Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) has shown a growing interest in how technology might support parenting. An area that remains underexplored is the design of technology to support parents from nondominant groups in positively impacting their children's education. Drawing on Actor-Network Theory (ANT), our…

The Work of Bilingual Parent-Education Liaisons: Assembling Information Patchworks for Immigrant Parents

In this paper, we examine the information work that bilingual parent-education liaisons perform to create connections towards assisting immigrant parents in the United States. As part of formal and informal educational institutions, liaisons operate between different social worlds—within and beyond the domain of educa…
