#CriticalDataLit joins the 2nd edition of AI Youth Ambassador Program at #UniOulu! At the workshop, participants discussed aspects connected to privilege, discrimination and social justice in datafied societies through futures thinking and theater-based techniques. The sessions opened relevant questions on data bias affecting assessment and hiring software, as well as critical reflections on diversity and power  #CriticalDataLiteracy #AI #aieducation #DataLiteracy

NEWS: We have been quiet, but not idle! In the last 12 months, we have given our database for critical data literacy tools and our glossary a thorough update.

https://www.bigdataliteracy.net/database/
We have reviewed all resources in the database, added new formats, new ways to filter the database (including thematic tags!) and added over 20 new resources.

https://www.bigdataliteracy.net/glossar/
We've also given our (German-language) glossary an entirely new design, added new categories and new entries.

And we've participated in developing this online module on #criticaldataliteracy for teacher education: https://zfl-lernen.de/online-kurs/big-data-literacy/

Detailed news here: https://www.bigdataliteracy.net/2024/04/22/update-of-our-database-glossary/

Sharing our updated database & glossary is very welcome!
So is any feedback about our resources - are they useful to you? Let us know!
