Data-driven behavioral interventions for sustainability (DABIS)

Contents

This seminar offers an introduction to behavioral insights that can help developers build more effective IS in the sustainability domain and beyond. It covers important psychological, social, cognitive, and emotional factors that need to be considered in state-of-the-art IS design. Participants will become familiar with concepts to “nudge” users. Participants will also discuss ethical aspects (i.e. the fine line between manipulation and honest support) and transfer the learnings to exemplary applications that can promote energy efficiency.
Furthermore, you will also become familiar with reading scientific papers, practice writing scientific reports, and learn how to better present your work in class.

 

The research seminar prepares students for their Bachelor thesis, so that they are able to answer a concrete research question in the field of digital transformation.
