Algorithmic Literacy: A Compass to Successfully Navigate the Algorithm-Driven World?

Determined by algorithms, i.e., a set of rules to be followed in calculations, computers have altered how we tackle and organize various activities across many domains. Initially applied to simple tasks premised on human control, today's algorithmic advances have taken over management and mimic human intelligence processes. Since algorithms permeate nearly every sphere of human life, the public must be equipped with the necessary tools, skills, and knowledge to use them comfortably, innovatively, responsibly, effectively, and ethically.
