As AI and data-driven systems pervade practice, there is an imperative for instructors to embed societal impact and ethics content into computing courses. In response, we present the Human-Centered Education for Learning in Information and eXplainable Computing (HELIX) framework for information science programs, organi...

As smartphones become integral to daily life, researchers have sought to identify when the use becomes problematic. Previous studies have operationalized problematic smartphone usage (PSU) from either an intention or a behavior perspective. Both risk delivering interventions not welcomed by users. We propose a novel ap...
Preliminary evidence is provided that use of purpose-built AI may be associated with positive symptom-based and utilization outcomes for those managing co-occurring mental and physical concerns.

This paper takes a critical approach to visualization of colonial regimes. Drawing on critical hermeneutics and postcolonial theory, we created interactive visu- alizations revealing the constructed nature of colonial categories and exposing the hierarchies between empires and territories. Using the Varieties of Politi...

The adaptation of a rhythm-based interface, originally designed for manual dexterity rehabilitation, for use in speech therapy is found to improve motivation and therapeutic outcomes by facilitating more interactions between verbally challenged patients and the therapist.
Based on findings, authoring environments should consider the context of scientific work aspects such as domain expertise, collaboration culture, and publication traditions, and examine ways of meaningfully integrating AI.

Smart textiles embed interactivity into everyday garments, supporting use cases like always-available sensing for medical applications or sports. Machine embroidery allows integrating functionalities into existing textiles. However, embroidering onto real-world textile goods remains challenging. Textile goods are rarel...
This work introduces a multidimensional design space of representational fidelity for didactic visualization in science&engineering, inductively derived from a 175-item corpus spanning several disciplines, modalities, and instructional aims.

As geopolitical tensions, energy crises, and energy-intensive AI infrastructure intensify concerns about demand, affordability, and resilience, communities increasingly encounter these challenges through everyday energy practices, particularly winter heating. Against this background, the doctoral expos\'e,"Designing Hu...
These findings suggest that, in this setting, LLMs function less as human co-authors and more as adaptive narrative amplifiers that reshape how agency is distributed in collaborative writing.

AI agents can generate code at a scale that’s hard for humans to review line-by-line. PDD Kit helps ensure the code is doing what the developer intended by creating formal specifications and testing against them. It converts developer intent into a Verus specification, proves AI-generated code meets it for every input, and uses tests where proofs aren't practical. Developers review intent, not every line. The post Formally verifying agent-written full-stack web apps with PDD Kit appeared first o…
