Purpose: Research shows that postsecondary students are largely unaware of the impact of algorithms on their everyday lives. Also, most noncomputer science students are not being taught about algorithms as part of the regular curriculum. This exploratory, qualitative study aims to explore subject-matter experts' insights and perceptions of the…

Purpose: Artificial intelligence (AI) has become increasingly important and influential in reading and writing. The influx of social media digital spaces, like TikTok, has also shifted the ways multimodal composition takes place alongside AI. This study aims to argue that within spaces like TikTok, human composers must attend to the ways they…

Prediction algorithms are used across public policy domains to aid in the identification of at-risk individuals and guide service provision or resource allocation. While growing research has investigated concerns of algorithmic bias, much less research has compared algorithmically-driven targeting to the counterfactual: human prediction. We…

As big data algorithm usage becomes more ubiquitous, it will become critical for all young people, particularly those from historically marginalized populations, to have a deep understanding of data science that empowers them to enact change in their local communities and globally. In this study, we explore the concept of critical machine…

This study developed a school-based AI curriculum suitable for senior high school students, with the primary objective of enhancing their mastery of knowledge and proficiency in AI, as well as their computational thinking abilities. The curriculum was designed with an awareness of the practical challenges encountered by the subject school in their…

As part of a broader information literacy agenda, academic libraries are interested in advancing algorithmic literacy. Folk theories of algorithmic decision-making systems, such as recommender systems, can provide insights into designing and delivering enhanced algorithmic literacy initiatives. Users of the Spotify music recommendation systems…
