GENDER, SOCIAL MEDIA, DIGITAL COMUNICATION AND SCREEN CULTURE SONIA MARIA MELCHIORRE	First Semester	8	ANGL-01/C		Learning objectives The primary objective is to enable students to communicate and analyze complex concepts in English in an academic and professional context, focusing on: • Terminological Mastery: Acquire and accurately use specific vocabulary related to (1) AI and Ethics, (2) Gender Studies, and (3) Digital Media. • Academic Speaking and Writing: Develop the ability to formulate complex arguments, both in debates and critical essays, using a formal and cohesive register. • Critical Comprehension: Improve the ability to read, summarize, and critically evaluate academic texts (articles, reports) and multimedia content in English. Content-Specific Language Learning Objectives The language learning objectives are structured according to the course topics, enabling students to: 1. Gender, Social Media, and Screen Culture • Describe and Analyze: Use appropriate terminology to discuss platform design, user engagement, online identity construction, and algorithmic curation. • Discuss Critically: Support debates on body objectification, influencer culture, and gender stereotypes in media. 2. Ethics, Harassment, and Moderation • Explain and Evaluate: Master the vocabulary to address online harassment, cyberbullying, trolling, and hate speech. • Compare and Contrast: Use linguistic frameworks to compare content moderation mechanisms and assess their impact on gender equity. 3. AI, Linguistic Bias, and Cognitive Bias • Explain Technical Processes: Acquire the language to describe the functioning of Large Linguistic Models (LLM) and Natural Language Processing (NLP), including concepts such as textual data corpus and biased word associations. • Analyze Psychological Concepts: Use vocabulary to define and discuss cognitive schemas, mental shortcuts, and confirmation bias. • Formulate Solutions: Propose and discuss, in formal language, problems related to the gender gap in software development and suggest strategies for bias prevention in design. Teacher's Profile courseProgram The requested course, GENDER, SOCIAL MEDIA, DIGITAL COMMUNICATION AND SCREEN CULTURE, is designed to explore the intersection of digital life, societal norms, and Artificial Intelligence (AI), with a crucial focus on preventing gender bias. Here is a proposed structure and content for the course, highlighting the linguistic and cognitive aspects related to AI and bias prevention. Gender and Social Media: Analysis of platform design, user engagement, and the construction of online identities. Topics include the objectification of bodies, "influencer culture," and the formation of marginalized digital communities. Screen Culture and Representation: Critical examination of gender stereotypes in media, video games, and streaming content. Focus on the impact of algorithmic content curation on reinforcing or challenging existing norms. Digital Communication Ethics: Study of online harassment (cyberbullying, trolling), hate speech, and the mechanisms platforms use for content moderation, assessing their impact on gender equity. Linguistic Bias in Datasets: The Problem of Corpus: Analyzing how the vast textual data used to train Large Language Models (LLMs) and other Natural Language Processing (NLP) systems reflects historical and societal gender stereotypes. For instance, how word associations (e.g., "nurse" with "she," "engineer" with "he") lead to biased outcomes in applications like translation services or CV screening. Cognitive Schemas and Language: Exploration of the psychological concept of schemas (mental shortcuts) and how they manifest in language. Students learn how AI, by imitating human language, inadvertently learns and amplifies these biased cognitive shortcuts. Cognitive Bias in Design and Use: Programmer's Cognitive Bias: Study of how the lack of diversity in programming teams (a major gender gap in software development) leads to blind spots in system design. Focus on how human cognitive biases (e.g., confirmation bias) influence data collection and model testing. Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) and Gender: Analysis of how gendered voice assistants (e.g., frequently defaulted to female voices) reinforce stereotypes of women as helpful or subservient. Evaluation of user perception and trust in AI outputs based on perceived gender. Bias Linguistico nei Dataset: examMode The following elements are included in the final assessment: Project conception to be carried out during the weeks of the course Ongoing presentations of the chosen project Final project presentation with an oral presentazion Final grammar test at B1+/B2 level books Farci, Manolo e Scarcelli, Cosimo Marco (a cura di).

• Formulate Solutions: Propose and discuss, in formal language, problems related to the gender gap in software development and suggest strategies for bias prevention in design.

Teacher's Profile

courseProgram

The requested course, GENDER, SOCIAL MEDIA, DIGITAL COMMUNICATION AND SCREEN CULTURE, is designed to explore the intersection of digital life, societal norms, and Artificial Intelligence (AI), with a crucial focus on preventing gender bias.

Here is a proposed structure and content for the course, highlighting the linguistic and cognitive aspects related to AI and bias prevention.
Gender and Social Media: Analysis of platform design, user engagement, and the construction of online identities. Topics include the objectification of bodies, "influencer culture," and the formation of marginalized digital communities.

Screen Culture and Representation: Critical examination of gender stereotypes in media, video games, and streaming content. Focus on the impact of algorithmic content curation on reinforcing or challenging existing norms.

Digital Communication Ethics: Study of online harassment (cyberbullying, trolling), hate speech, and the mechanisms platforms use for content moderation, assessing their impact on gender equity.

Linguistic Bias in Datasets:

The Problem of Corpus: Analyzing how the vast textual data used to train Large Language Models (LLMs) and other Natural Language Processing (NLP) systems reflects historical and societal gender stereotypes. For instance, how word associations (e.g., "nurse" with "she," "engineer" with "he") lead to biased outcomes in applications like translation services or CV screening.

Cognitive Schemas and Language: Exploration of the psychological concept of schemas (mental shortcuts) and how they manifest in language. Students learn how AI, by imitating human language, inadvertently learns and amplifies these biased cognitive shortcuts.

Cognitive Bias in Design and Use:

Programmer's Cognitive Bias: Study of how the lack of diversity in programming teams (a major gender gap in software development) leads to blind spots in system design. Focus on how human cognitive biases (e.g., confirmation bias) influence data collection and model testing.

Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) and Gender: Analysis of how gendered voice assistants (e.g., frequently defaulted to female voices) reinforce stereotypes of women as helpful or subservient. Evaluation of user perception and trust in AI outputs based on perceived gender.
