*Love Data Week is Back!*

We’re excited to announce that we’ll once again be participating in
International Love Data Week, organized by Inter-university Consortium for
Political and Social Research (ICPSR), February 13-17, 2023. While we have
several things lined up for you, we’re most excited to welcome Sarah Lamdan
from CUNY School of Law on 2/15 to talk about how data cartels collect and
commodify researchers’ academic data. Register for her talk, *For Love or
Money? What Researchers Should Know about Academic Data Cartels*
<https://colorado.libcal.com/calendar/events/datacartels> while there’s
space!



Want more data fun? You can read Ms. Lamdan’s book, *Data Cartels: The
Companies That Control and Monopolize Our Information*, before her talk for
free through the CU Library
<https://libraries.colorado.edu/record=b12839121~S3>. Or join us for *Love
the Way Your Data Move*, *Introduction to GPU Acceleration*, or any of the
other data workshops we’re hosting that week (keep your eye on
https://www.colorado.edu/crdds/love-data-week for updates and more
information). You can also visit ICPSR’s events page
<https://www.icpsr.umich.edu/web/ICPSR/cms/4544?utm_source=all&utm_medium=all&utm_campaign=LDW23&utm_id=LDW23&utm_content=InternationalEventsActivities+Listing>
for programs hosted by universities from around the world. #LoveData23






*From our Friends*

Designing Writing Prompts that Defy A.I. Text Generators
<https://calendar.colorado.edu/event/AItextgenerators#.Y9AlC-zMJhG>

With Dr. Andrea Feldman, Teaching Professor of Distinction, Program for
Writing and Rhetoric and Dr. Rolf Norgaard, Teaching Professor Distinction,
Program for Writing and Rhetoric, CU Boulder. In an era of ChatGPT and A.I.
text generators, how can we harness these tools without undermining student
learning? Using a text generator with concrete examples, the session will
demonstrate how to design writing prompts that require students to use
rhetorical strategies in ways that defy A.I. text generation. Given this
new environment, Teaching Professors of Distinction Andrea Feldman and Rolf
Norgaard will join us to discuss how to navigate writing in the academy.
