April 23, 2022, 8:00am-1:00pm PDT (UTC-7)
All workshop activities will be held remotely via Zoom and/or other platforms for synchronous and asynchronous communication
We will use the first hour of the workshop to introduce our purpose, review logistics, and get to know fellow workshop participants. We will then hold a facilitated panel discussion composed of authors and contributors who produced the new book, Human-Centered Data Science: An Introduction, which will be released by MIT Press in February 2022 (authors include the organizers of this workshop).
We will form small group virtual breakout rooms of 3-4 people in which each person provides a synopsis of their position paper that is no longer than 5 minutes, and the group discusses common themes and contrasting positions, resonance and dissonances between the papers in their group.
The last part of the day will consist of a large-group discussion. We will share highlights from the breakout room conversations and follow interesting threads of thought. We will chart areas for future work and research, distilling the ideas shared to begin development on either a cluster of papers for a special issue proposal, or a collaborative research grant proposal.
