Co-designing for Research: Teaching for Digital Citizenship

What’s on offer?

This event is a co-design workshop with young people from Scottish secondary schools participating in the ESRC project Teaching for Digital Citizenship. The workshop aims to engage with young people around themes of digital technology in secondary schools and engage them as co-researchers on the project.

The workshop will begin with an exploration of how data impact daily life at home, school, and beyond, while also recognising the disparate impact that data have on groups. This sets the foundation for the co-design element of the workshop: together with researchers from the University of Glasgow, the group will discuss the challenges and opportunities of digital technology, while also speculatively engaging with researchers on how society might leverage digital technology differently.

What’s it about?

Participatory work with schools and young people, focusing on the application of the principles of data justice and a cross-section of philosophy, the social sciences, and critical data studies.
