In this work-in-progress paper, we examine how the campaign to end the guardianship law in Saudi Arabia is being discussed and debated on social media. Through a content analysis of tweets, we first identify those with either a positive or negative sentiment towards ending the law and then we identify topical themes across these sentiment categories. We found polarizing responses with individuals either calling for the end of the law or those opposing its end on religious or moral grounds. This analysis provides a basis for building a model to automatically code tweets to increase the accuracy of Arabic text prediction. This will allow us to answer new questions about the dataset and inform the design of ICTs.

The concepts of "work" and "workplace" have shifted. Although the distributed office provides major benefits in terms of flexibility and mobility, the connection and sense of community that would develop through copresence and visual awareness are often lost. To address these gaps, many interventions have been designed but most solutions are still plagued with issues of reciprocity, aesthetic, interaction, privacy and scalability. We have developed a system, Visualink, that aims to connect distributed teams thanks to interactive video projections, visually breaking down the physical wall between spaces. Our system affords reciprocity to provide a symmetrical interaction and lessen the perception of surveillance, and employs image processing techniques to improve the privacy of its users.

People's lived experiences provide intuitions about their health. Can they transform these personal intuitions into scientific theories that inform both science and their lives? My research introduces socialcomputing architectures and system principles for people to brainstorm and test causal scientific theories. These ideas are instantiated in the Gut Instinct system (*** ). 344 voluntary online participants from 27 countries created 399 personally-relevant questions about the human microbiome, 75 (19%) of which microbiome experts found potentially scientifically novel. To test their theories, end users design structurally-sound experiments, improve them via community reviews, and run them with other participants. Controlled experiments show that participants create better hypotheses and experimental designs when they have access to procedural training. My research illustrates a novel way to tackle complex, creative tasks online by building expertise in online volunteer communities.

As people increasingly work different jobs, the responsibility of building long-term career satisfaction and stability increasingly falls more on the workers rather than individual employers. With technologies playing a central role in how people choose and access employment opportunities, it is necessary to understand how online technologies are shaping career development. We bring together leading human-computer interaction researchers, industry members, and community organizers, who have worked with systems and people across the socio-economic spectrum during the career development process. We will discuss research on the role of online technologies in career development, including but not limited to topics in crowd work, social media sites, and freelance work sites.

We demonstrate Wiki'ike, a system that helps exploration of Knowledge Graphs (KGs). Wiki'ike takes advantage of location and temporal information for easy exploration of KGs. We present how Wiki'ike can be used in a classroom to help teachers motivate students and communicate knowledge efficiently. In our demonstration, we show two scenarios where Wiki'ike can be used in a classroom for teaching history and geography. In the two scenarios, Wiki'ike helps inspire students curiosity and communicate knowledge in various perspectives.

Communities focused on creating and sharing fanworks have existed since before the internet, but have thrived in the presence of online platforms. From young people learning literacy skills through writing fanfiction about their favorite media to complex infrastructural work in fans creating their own platforms to longstanding social norms that promote inclusivity, these communities showcase many core interests of CSCW-however, there has been little research focused on fan creation and communities within socialcomputing and HCI. This panel brings together scholars who have conducted research related to online fandom communities to discuss their experiences, the challenges they have faced, and the vast opportunity for more work in this area from a range of perspectives.

Dementia is one of the most devastating conditions affecting the lives of older populations and their families. Preparing families and potential caregivers for the stressful journey of care demands fostering the understanding and empathy for those living with dementia. Existing simulations of the dementia symptoms focus on analogue simulations of sensory deterioration. Our virtual reality system immerses the participant in a casual interactive semi-scripted scenario with a live inter-actor. Through the changing virtual environment and interactions with their virtual partner, the participant experiences a simulation of the effects of memory loss and time disorientation. Through their unscripted improvised response, they are free to explore different reactions and understand potential emotions that may occur in those living with dementia. The immersed participant and the audience also observe the effect of these changes on participant-caregiver interactions.
