ICS 131: Social Analysis of Computerization
Professor Bill Tomlinson
Winter 2005
![Page 2: ICS 131: Social Analysis of Computerization Professor Bill Tomlinson Winter 2005](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032313/56649e735503460f94b725c9/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
Key Ideas
• Technical content operates in a
non-technical context.
• Social context is central to technology.
![Page 3: ICS 131: Social Analysis of Computerization Professor Bill Tomlinson Winter 2005](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032313/56649e735503460f94b725c9/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Not as Precise
• But arguably more important.
• Not helpful, responsible or necessary to dismiss it.
![Page 4: ICS 131: Social Analysis of Computerization Professor Bill Tomlinson Winter 2005](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032313/56649e735503460f94b725c9/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Opportunity
• Understanding and working with the social/non-technical context can make your work better.
![Page 5: ICS 131: Social Analysis of Computerization Professor Bill Tomlinson Winter 2005](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032313/56649e735503460f94b725c9/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
This Course
• Should give you a chance to recognize situations where social/non-technical issues arise.
• Should help you see all sides of these issues.
• Should help you use this understanding to make better work.

100 Statements that I believe in:Computers (C.) can help people
be more productive.C. can help people stay in touch
with each other.The way in which C’s help
people stay in touch changes the form of their relationships.
An OS changes the way in which people expect to use a c.
Software specifies the ways in which people can use c.
Software can be used in ways not intended by the coder.
The process of adoption of technology can change how a
piece of technology integrates w/ society.
Software can enable people to break the law.
Software can prevent people from doing certain things that
break the law.Software can prevent people
from doing things that are not against the law.
Software enables faster and more fluid interactions (exchange of
info).Certain laws were designed for
slower and more viscous kinds of interactions.
People are willing to form social relationships with computer
systems.Social are willing to form social
relationships with each other through computing systems.People could be interested
in/benefit from characters that form relationships with each
other.The rise in computing systems in service industry changes role of humans to that of consultants.
Computing can change the way people learn content in
classrooms.Computing can change the way people learn content outside of
classrooms.Computers make it possible for people to invade each others’
privacy in new ways.Computers create new data that
people might want to keep private.
People present themselves differently in computationally
mediated settings.Computers can be used to help people share information about
many content domains (e.g. ecology).
Computers can be used as a tool for environmental stewardship.Computers can be used as a tool
for environmental education.Computer games and the internet
are
