About

Andrea Forte

Andrea Forte, PhD, is Head of Drexel University’s Department of Information Science in the College of Computing and Informatics. She began her research career at Georgia Institute of Technology, where she earned her doctorate in Human-Centered Computing researching novel social and collaborative computing technologies, and investigated new approaches to broadening participation in computing. Forte was recognized in 2021 as a distinguished member of the Association for Computing Machinery for her outstanding scientific contributions to the field of computing. She received the NSF Career award in 2012 and has published a series of award-winning papers. She was elected chair of the Steering Committee for the SIGCHI Computer-Supported Cooperative Work community in 2020 and also serves on the Steering Committee of the Consortium for the Science of Sociotechnical Systems.

Forte’s scholarship has focused on understanding wide-ranging features of online life, including how people collaborate and share information as well as the threats and risks associated with doing so. Her research group develops new tools and theoretical understandings that can help build better, safer, and more beneficial online experiences.

Forte is passionate about aligning her research and leadership activities to create more equitable and fulfilling futures for students and colleagues in the academic community.

Research areas: Human-Computer Interaction and User Experience (HCI/UX), Computer-Supported Cooperative Work (CSCW), Social Computing, Privacy, Education

Projects

Threat Intelligence for Targets of Coordinated Harassment

In this NSF-funded project (2020-2024), we use a comprehensive set of technical and human-centered methods to advance our understanding of coordinated harassment threats and mitigation techniques.

with Rachel Greenstadt (PI) and Damon McCoy at New York University (co-PI), Jordyn Young and Kejsi Take (PhD students).

Measuring the Value of Anonymity Online

theanonymityproject.org

In this NSF-funded project (2017-2021), we are looking at why and how people seek anonymity online, why and how internet infrastructure supports it, and finding ways to assess the value of anonymous online participation.

with Rachel Greenstadt at NYU (PI), Mako Hill at University of Washington (co-PI), Kaylea Champion, Bao Chao Tran Phi (PhD students)

past teammembers: Nora McDonald (PhD student), Erica Racine (PhD student), Stephanie Bankes, Joseph Zhang

Algorithms and Data Privacy Styles

In this NSF-funded project (2018-2021), we are working to identify different approaches to managing personal data in a data-driven society.

with Eric Baumer at Lehigh University (PI), Houda El Mimouni, Erica Racine, and Patrick Skeba (PhD students).

Designing an Information Savvy Society

In this NSF CAREER award-funded project (2013-2018), my student collaborators and I studied how people share and create information and judge its value and creibility in a variety of contexts.

past teammembers: Heather Willever-Farr and Nazanin Andalibi (PhD students), Gabrielle Frost, Minh Le, and Tim Moesgen (undergraduate researchers).

openHTML

openhtml.org

In this NSF-supported design-based research project (2011-2012; 2013-2018), our team investigated the impact of beginning web development experiences on learners' understandings of Web technologies, infrastructure, and computational concepts.

past teammembers: Brian Dorn, University of Nebraska at Omaha; Erin Knight and Doug Belshaw, Mozilla Foundation; Michael Wagner, Drexel (Co-PIs); Tom Park (post doc) and Meen Chul Kim (PhD student).

past teammembers: Susan Wiedenbeck (Co-PI), Swathi Jagannath (masters student), Ankur Saxena, Sukrit Chhabra, and Brian Lee (undergraduate researchers)

ExCITe Center

drexel.edu/excite

Drexel has established a multi-institutional center to spearhead research and re-invent education at the nexus of science, technology, and the arts: the Expressive and Creative Interaction Technologies (ExCITe) Center, led by Drexel University with several regional partners.

Youth and Social Search

youthonline.ischool.drexel.edu/

From 2011-2014, this IMLS-funded project team investigated the social search habits of high school students, with emphasis on how youth interact on social network sites to ask and answer questions of their peers and others.

past teammembers: Denise Agosto (PI), Rachel Magee, Michelle Purcell, Robin Naughton, Michael Dickard (PhD students)

School and Public Library Social Media Practice and Policy, Co-PI

With IMLS support from 2011-2014, we conducted a national survey of public and school libraries about their use of and policies on social technologies to support library services to youth.

past teammembers: Denise Agosto (PI), Rachel Magee (PhD student), and Michelle Purcell (PhD student).

past teammembers: Robin Naughton (graduated PhD Student), Michael Dickard (PhD student)
