"SIGCHI Research Ethics Town Hall";
Talk: ACM CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems, Glasgow; 2019-05-04 - 2019-05-09; in: "Proceedings of the 2019 CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems", ACM (ed.); ACM New York, NY, USA, (2019), ISBN: 978-1-4503-5970-2; 1 - 6.

An ongoing challenge within the diverse HCI and social computing research communities is understanding research ethics in the face of evolving technology and methods. Building upon successful town hall meetings at CHI 2018, GROUP 2018 and CSCW 2018, this panel will be structured to facilitate audience discussion and to collect input about current challenges and processes. It will be led by members of the ACM SIGCHI Research Ethics Committee. We will pose open questions and invite audience discussion of practices centered on recent "hot topic" issues. For this year's town hall, the primary focus will be on paths to balancing the often-competing regulatory frameworks under which we operate (some of which having recently undergone significant revisions) with our community's efforts to reveal ethical challenges posed by new interactive technologies and new contexts of use. We will engage the audience in discussions on whether there is a non-colonial role for ethics education within the broad HCI community, how that may capture the cultural and disciplinary differences that are woven into CHI's fabric, and how research ethical issues should be handled in SIGCHI paper submission and review process.
