Open Educational Materials at HIIG

We turn our research findings into creative formats: zines, card games, experiments, or toolkits, for example. Whether you teach, study, or are simply curious: you can use, adapt, and share our educational materials free of charge. Our collection keeps growing.

Zines on Fair Content Moderation

The zines show how humans and algorithms decide together on social media whether content violates rules such as hate speech.

Experiment: Face recognition

The open-source tool gives people a hands-on understanding of how facial recognition software works with the help of experiments. How powerful are such AI systems and where what are their weaknesses?

MAKE SCIENCE GO VIRAL
