S3xE12: Socially Responsible Computing UTA Program
How do you infuse a class to engage students with socially responsible computing? Kathi Fisler from Brown University discusses Brown’s undergraduate teaching assistant (UTA) program, where they hired UTAs to specifically focus on finding ways to do just that in the classes they were embedded in. In this episode, we talk about the program, how she teaches socially responsible computing in her intro computer science (CS) classes, and how her goal is to get students to ask the right questions. While she also lets go of needing to know the answers or even how to answer the questions.
