Message from AICCSA\u272022 General Chairs

With great pleasure we welcome the delegates of the 19th IEEE Conference on Computer Systems and Applications (AICCSA\u272022) that will be held on the campus of Zayed University in Abu-Dhabi, United Arab Emirates (UAE) from December 5 to 7, 2022. The essence of AICCSA in computer systems research remains strong, healthy, and vibrant, with an acceptance rate of 42%. AICCSA\u272022 IEEE proceedings will publish the accepted authors\u27 works on Xplore following the conference. AICCSA uses a double-blind review process whereby each submission undergoes a rigorous review process. The breadth of topics in the submitted papers reflects the scope of areas in which computer systems evolve

Chair Support, Faculty Entrepreneurship, and the Teaching of Statistical Reasoning to Journalism Undergraduates in the United States

Statistical reasoning is not the same as doing calculations. Instead, it involves cognitive skills such as the ability to think critically and systematically with data, skills important for everyday news work and essential for the era of data journalism. Twin surveys of the chairs of undergraduate journalism programs in the United States, conducted 11 years apart, revealed that those who perceived benefits from statistical reasoning instruction were more likely to reward entrepreneurship (faculty attempts to integrate this instruction into their classes), but with slow gains over time in the fairly small number of such faculty. Being consistent with university goals in statistical reasoning instruction appeared to motivate chairs’ reward decisions in both waves. Increasingly, they took into account what they saw as the general value of statistical reasoning for their students and the competitive edge it could give them in the journalism job market. Perceived constraints to teaching this content had no apparent overall impact on reward decisions
