[Air-L] Trust Games - Annotation Tasks

[Shulman, Stu]

Trust Games

I am looking for collaborators to help prepare a free educational online
game suitable for secondary and collegiate classrooms focused on whether
content is trustworthy or not. Please contact me if you want to be a part
of this effort. It might operate something like the "Which Face is Real"
application, but might be used instead for identifying and discussing
untrustworthy accounts on Twitter as a gamified learning module for classes
this fall. I have most of the pieces ready, but I am not an expert in
games. I'd like to form an ad hoc team and have this operational for
September and October of 2024. My goal is to offer an IRB-compliant game
platform that generates usable research results and better informed student
discussions in advance of the U.S. election in November.

Annotation Tasks

I have a new set of annotation tasks related to planning for the game
development. I need motivated undergraduates willing to label batches of
Tweets under conditions that test core features of gamification in
labeling, starting with speed and accuracy. In addition to getting paid
more for being the fastest/most accurate labelers, students will see some
remarkable datasets that have historical significance. If you know Jr. or
Sr. undergraduates in the US or Canada with a >3.9 GPA, tell them to send
me a resume.

Thanks AoIR!
