Informed Experiences, Designing Consent

Established in 1976, the Center for the Study of Ethics in the Profession's (CSEP) mission is to educate students as responsible professionals, to reflect on the wider implications of scientific progress, and to contribute to the shaping of technology in accordance with fundamental human values. Its research program focuses on ethics in the life sciences and ethical and societal issues of emerging technologies, with a particular focus on philosophical and ethical aspects of neuroscience. The Ethics Center is committed to multi-disciplinary and multi-institutional research, to projects that combine empirical investigation with conceptual analysis, and to projects that introduce and propagate innovations in teaching. Furthermore, the Ethics Center Library houses a unique collection of ethics codes from all over the world and a large collection of ethics education materials.More information about Illinois Tech's Ethics Center can be found atethics.iit.edu

<P>Designs, whether implicitly or explicitly, cite core values that drive their development and marketing. Efficiency and profit are two common principles that push design. </P>
<P>Informed Experiences, Designing Consent offers a space to consider centering consent as a core value of design. We invite creative individuals, researchers, ethicists, and designers, especially those with burning questions, critical theories, and insightful projects about design practices and consent, to join us for this one-day event on April 6, 2019 at Illinois Tech’s Downtown Campus (565 W. Adams). While we are talking about design and consent, we welcome people working on theoretical, reflective, and reception/audience perspectives of these concepts.</P>
<P>This symposium will use a<A TARGET="_blank" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer"> <EM>Learn, Make, Reflect</EM> Model</A> to interrogate the intersections of consent and design of interactive media and technologies. Here, we use panels, workshops, and discussion for attendees to prototype designs that center on consent and iterate on this process. We will provide simple prototyping materials for groups to collaborate on exploring the intersections of theory and practice in our maker-sessions.</P>
<P>Informed Experiences, Designing Consent is hosted by the Illinois Institute of Technology Center for the Study of Ethics in the Professions and the HASTAC Scholars fellowship program. It is organized by Michael Anthony DeAnda, Elisabeth Hildt, Kelly Laas, and Leilasadat Mirghaderi with generous sponsorship from the Coleman Foundation.</P>

<P>This model utilizes three components to combine theory and embodied practice in learning as a community.</P>
<UL>
<LI><EM>Learn</EM>: a selected panel speaks on a given topic. These presentations provide frameworks and considerations from varied perspectives.</LI>
<LI><EM>Make</EM>: maker/design breakout sessions that engage the given topic. From the frameworks proposed in presentations, all attendees collaborate on hands-on practices of designing and prototyping something drawing from the frameworks and offerings of the panel.</LI>
<LI><EM>Reflect</EM>: after the breakout sessions, all attendees return to discuss their maker experiences. Here, we offer a space for generative forms of knowledge production in which all attendees contribute from their perspectives.</LI>
