SOC 274: Social Computing (CS 278, SOC 174)
Today we interact with our friends and enemies, our team partners and romantic partners, and our organizations and societies, all through computational systems. How do we design these social computing systems to be effective and responsible? This course covers design patterns for social computing systems and the foundational ideas that underpin them. Students will engage with the course topic via readings, reading responses, and in-class discussions. Course available for 3-4 units; students enrolling in the 4-unit option will have the opportunity to create new computationally-mediated social environments through a group project. This group project will have weekly project work sections starting Week 2
