We will have a dedicated room, so we have a creative collaborative space where we can post materials on the walls, leave work in progress on the tables, etc. We will have both a lower level course (CUSP 131) and an upper-level course (CSS 390) that meet at the same time in the same room, in order to get a greater diversity of perspectives. Our goal is that by the end of the course you will know how to hack team culture, and have generated a set of experiments to try at UW Bothell. Meets 4 to 5 days per week for 3-4 hours. To learn more about the seminar contact Daivd Socha at DSocha@uwb.edu or Sue Kraemer at SKraemer@uwb.edu.
