@CDNJobar speaks to promoting data usage more than data collection. #WSTS3 #bigdata

[CSG @secgovcentre]

@RozitaDara speaks to how small data is vital. @biancawylie quotes “In our democracy we need to encompass disagreeing in good faith.” #WSTS3 #bigdata #smalldata #democracy

[CSG @secgovcentre]

@SethS_D talks A/B testing: a way to compare two versions of a single variable. Online media outlets often use this method of testing on different versions of headliners. #WSTS3 #bigdata #media

[CSG @secgovcentre]

A misconception we might have about the quality of data: It’s not about the size of the data, it’s about how newly found the data is. #WSTS3 #bigdata

[CSG @secgovcentre]

Waterloo Symposium Series 3: Important questions: What is happening in our society? What is democracy anymore? How do we translate data into knowledge? #WSTS3 #bigdata #technology
