# Ethical Issues and Best Practices in Data and Analytics

**June 8 2024 8:30 AM full-day course (in-person)**

In this workshop we discuss ethical issues in data and analytics. Our class spends 20-30 minutes each on a series of issues, alerting students to the existence of these issues and how to identify them. In the course we will devote a half day to data issues such as privacy and data ownership, and then turn our attention to analytics issues such as p-hacking, sources of bias, and responding to algorithm failure. Our course teaches a practical approach for examining ethical issues in data and analytics. We will present concrete examples of both good and bad practices. At the conclusion, course attendees will be equipped to be more aware of potential issues, and will also be better prepared if and when potential issues arise.
