As people increasingly innovate outside of formal R&D departments, individuals take on the responsibility of attracting, managing, and protecting social, financial, human, and information capital. With internet technology playing a central role in how individuals work together to produce something that they could not produce alone, it is necessary to understand how technologies are shaping the innovation process from start to finish. We bring together human-computer interaction researchers and industry leaders who have worked with people and platforms designed to support collective innovation across diverse domains. We will discuss the current and future research on the role of platforms in collective innovation, including topics in socialcomputing, crowdsourcing, peer production, online communities, gig economy, & online marketplaces.

In this paper, I show the under heard voices of those whose primary media is radio, the proliferation of large trend analysis over fine-grained exploratory tools for large scale media data, and the absence of exploratory tools for hyper local media like local radio. In response, I present RadioSilenced, a web based tool that enables the semi-serendipitous (not algorithmically curated) exploration and display of talk radio call-in data to encourage a deeper understanding of the 10 percent of US communities whose primary news consumption is radio, in a whole-system view but sample-by-sample exploration closer to ethnographic observation than a more reductive, big data analysis. To my knowledge, large scale analysis of talk radio, one of the oldest forms of media, has rarely been attempted.

Studying abroad and adjusting to a new environment can be very stressful for non-native English-speaking international students due to challenges of language and culture. Previous research shows that computer-mediated communication (CMC) tools have the potential to help newcomers adjust to new environments. However, it is not clear what the role of communication tools is in newcomer international students' adaptation to the US. We conducted 17 semi-structured interviews with international students from China, Korea, and Japan to understand their adjustment challenges and how they use CMC tools to address them. We found that international students use CMC tools for finding reliable information, building new social networks, and providing an alternative channel for engaging in the US classroom. Based on these findings, we propose design implications for tools to better support international students' adjustment to the US.
The testing of Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) has become increasingly important as DNNs are widely adopted by safety critical systems. While many test adequacy criteria have been suggested, automated test input generatio...

Of all the countries that belong to OCDE, the Latin American countries have the highest levels of inequality. Chile is among them, with scores similar to Bolivia and Guatemala [10]. Also, the number of women living in poverty is higher than that of men [4]. Women’s economic context is essential for their families, as 90% of single-parent families are supported by women [12]. One way of achieving economic development may be choosing a career in technology, as tech jobs are among the highest-paid in the country [9]. Also, they are flexible, allowing women to balance work and family, and have been proven to promote social mobility and country economic growth [2, 7]. However, there is a well-known gender gap in technology; for example, only 24% of computer science students are women in Chile [9]. To inspire women to have a computer science career, interventions should be undertaken while they are girls, by addressing stereotypes that influence their attitude towards technology [6]. These stereotypes are influenced by the context in which girls grow [5]; in particular their socio-economic context [3]. Therefore, it may be essential to understand the context of girls, and their thoughts towards tech stereotypes, to create better computer science education interventions. We conducted a preliminary interview study with sixth grade girls, since at this age, stereotypes can still be challenged [1, 11], while the opportunities to challenge stereotypes decrease from the eighth grade on [8]. The research question of this study is whether there are different stereotypes regarding technology among girls with different socio-economical levels. It has been hypothesized that there will be different stereotypes among these girls. Twelve interviews were done: 6 with girls from low vulnerability contexts, and 6 with girls from high vulnerability contexts. The interview data were transcribed and analyzed using grounded theory under Charmaz’s perspective. The results from this preliminary

The US maternal mortality is double that of the UK and Canada and still rising. This is a public health crisis, and draws our attention to systemic issues with US health care, as maternal mortality is a core statistic used to indicate health care quality. Responding to the increasing number of women dying during one of the most common experiences with the medical system will require organizing a diverse group of stakeholders over a long period of time. Due to the unevenly distributed nature of the crisis, with Black women 243% more likely to die in childbirth or from childbirth-related causes will also require us to incorporate underrepresented voices into the current system. To examine these issues, we conducted interviews with public health experts working to address maternal mortality. We found that articulation work practices in public health limit the ability of experts to initiate contact with the very stakeholders they need to build relationships with to address the rise in maternal mortality.

In this paper, we propose the designs for two apps that benefit pediatric patients with asthma. We discuss the current state of the field through results from a survey of published apps related to asthma. We observed several key gaps that were unfilled and use these results to derive a set of requirements for a new app design. We describe two different designs that meet these requirements. The apps are designed to collect health metrics and educate kids aged 7 - 12 years through gameplay in two different contexts, at home and in hospital Emergency Departments (ED).
