Human-centered study of data science work practices

Abstract

With the rise of big data, there has been an increasing need to understand who is working in data science and how they are doing their work. HCI and CSCW researchers have begun to examine these questions. In this workshop, we invite researchers to share their observations, experiences, hypotheses, and insights, in the hopes of developing a taxonomy of work practices and open issues in the behavioral and social study of data science and data science workers.
