论文摘要

随着广泛的数据收集和强大的算法越来越多地塑造了儿童在世界上的经历,他们询问计算算法的能力变得至关重要。越来越多的作品试图阐明一组“文学”,以描述儿童可以用来理解,审问和批评塑造他们生活的算法系统的知识工具。不幸的是,由于许多算法是看不见的,因此只有少数儿童发展了批评这些系统所需的文字。设计师如何支持关键算法的文学发展?根据我们设计两个数据编程系统的经验,我们提出了我们认为的四个设计原则,可以帮助儿童发展文学,使他们不仅了解算法的工作原理,而且可以批评和质疑他们。

As pervasive data collection and powerful algorithms increasingly shape children's experience of the world and each other, their ability to interrogate computational algorithms has become crucially important. A growing body of work has attempted to articulate a set of "literacies" to describe the intellectual tools that children can use to understand, interrogate, and critique the algorithmic systems that shape their lives. Unfortunately, because many algorithms are invisible, only a small number of children develop the literacies required to critique these systems. How might designers support the development of critical algorithmic literacies? Based on our experience designing two data programming systems, we present four design principles that we argue can help children develop literacies that allow them to understand not only how algorithms work, but also to critique and question them.
