April 21st Workshop

[jialincheoh]

Are you a scholar in social sciences, arts and humanities and want to study our new age of data, code, and AI?

Do you want to use computational methods and experiments in the cloud to advance theories empirically?

Announcing an opportunity for CLA faculty and graduate students!

IronHacks is hosting a workshop on 19th April, 2023, inviting social scientists to study humans in the cloud using online experiments and advanced computational methods.

This workshop is hosted by Purdue’s Research Center for Open Digital Innovation (RCODI) and led by Dr. Sabine Brunswicker.

Join us on Friay, April 19th, 2023 at REC 132 from 11 AM to 4 PM, where we will be diving deep into the research and results of multiple IronHacks challenges and live demo to follow along.

To RSVP, simply respond to this email and let us know that you'll be there. We highly encourage bringing your personal laptop so you can try this IronHacks platform with our live guidelines.

Lunch is provided! We would also love to know if you have any dietary restrictions or accessibility needs, so we can make sure you are comfortable throughout the workshop.

Get ready to learn, network, and have some serious fun at our IronHacks Workshop!

Subject Line: Computational liberal arts (CLA) workshop on IronHacks: Studying humans in the age of code, data, and AI using computational methods and online experiments

Are you a scholar in social sciences, arts and humanities and want to study our new age of data, code, and AI?

Announcing an opportunity for CLA faculty and graduate students!

IronHacks is hosting a workshop on 21st April, 2023, inviting social scientists to study humans in the cloud using online experiments and advanced computational methods.

This workshop is hosted by Purdue’s Research Center for Open Digital Innovation (RCODI) and led by Dr. Sabine Brunswicker.

Potential Ironhacks Research Topics for CLA Colleagues:

• Social Networks
• Problem-Solving
• Cognitive Behavior
• Organizational Learning
• Individual Learning
• Artificial Intelligence
• Teams
• Human-Machine Systems
• Social Learning
• Trust
• Labor Market
• Misinformation

Benefits of Using IronHacks for Researchers: IronHacks is an experimental platform for social researchers to study emerging social phenomena in the field. The platform provides an opportunity for researchers to leverage the granular digital traces of human actions and interactions on and with digital platforms for developing and testing hypotheses related to individuals, groups, crowds, and collectives, as well as artifacts and platform architecture (Brunswicker et al., 2018) with advanced methods (Gosling and Johnson, 2010). The subjects enrolled in IronHacks are data scientists or programmers who are interested in tackling real-world problems. IronHacks employs randomized controlled experiments which have long been considered the gold standard of scientific research (Recker, 2013). IronHacks combines machine learning with large-scale digital experiments to offer completely new ways of developing and testing theory. To enable experimental research of various kinds, IronHacks has emerged as a digital platform for conducting experiments that are controlled by researchers themselves, thus enabling us to assess various treatment effects and reap digital trace data.

Purpose of Workshop for CLA Colleagues: We would like to engage scholars working in this area to collectively leverage resources and ideas to enable digital experimental research. Through presentations of empirical work and group discussions, this CLA sponsored workshop is intended to contribute a nuanced and grounded view of the opportunities in using IronHacks for implementing digital experiments. In the past, IronHacks has been used for asynchronous experiments , but synchronous experiments are also possible. We assume that actors’ actions on the platform are independent, but dependent actions are possible to implement.

Join us on Friday, April 21st, 2023 at REC 132 from 11 AM to 4 PM, where we will be diving deep into the research and results of multiple IronHacks challenges and live demo to follow along.

To RSVP, simply respond to this email and let us know that you'll be there. We highly encourage bringing your laptop so you can try this IronHacks platform with our live guidelines.

About the Organizer

Dr. Sabine Brunswicker is an internationally recognized innovation scholar and computational social scientist, bridging the fields of social sciences and information science & technology. She is a Professor for Digital Innovation, and the Founder and Director of the Research Center for Open Digital Innovation (RCODI). In her research on digital innovation, she is particularly focused on the role of digital platforms as a means to leverage distributed machine and human intelligence when solving complex problems at scale. Examples of digital innovation she studies are Open source software (OSS) communities, crowdsourcing, citizen science, blockchains, and digital manufacturing. In her work, she designs and examines the social and technical ‘features’ of digital platforms with a focus on economic, social, and ecological outcomes. Further, she uses computational techniques (e.g. agent-based modeling, network analysis) and field experiments to advance theories and models of complex socio-technical interactions. Her work has been funded by NSF, NIH, the European Commission (EC), and industry and philanthropic donors.

Research Center for Open Digital Innovation (RCODI) The Research Center for Open Digital Innovation (RCODI) strives to engage in a revolution of innovation, researching the best way digital technologies can shape the process of open innovation. Open innovation combines an organization’s own research with additional information from external sources to solve problems and develop new products or services. With leading researchers from around the world participating, the center will become a thought leader in the rapidly evolving field. Leveraging big data, sentiment analysis, crowdsourcing, open data, living laboratories and real-time experimentation, the center will focus on how technologies can change the way innovations are realized.

Please review @sbrunswi , so that @ManthanKeim can proceed with sending a test email

[sbrunswi]

I would like to edit the markdown right away. Did you fix the blog issue (hugo?)

[ManthanKeim]

about should be at the first

benefits should be at the end.

clean the writing a lot, and also order the issues

benefits - bullet points or a visualization from jasmine( reference from aarhus workshop)

RSVP button at the end and beginning (Manthan)

[jialincheoh]

Regarding manthan's issue, I removed the "about section" and replaced with "benefits of using ironhacks for researchers", is that not a good idea?  @sbrunswi , @ManthanKeim

[ManthanKeim]

Yellow color is not available in the add event, so used a solid blue color instead of red and removed the extra words in the RSVP button, da351d4 here.

[jasminebui1225]

I'm thinking of sth like this with event details attached to the image

[ManthanKeim]

yes, we can also consider any other data science/coding image if we want.

[jasminebui1225]
