This lecture covers:
• Advancing human values through integrative computing and changing practice
• Examples of computational ecosystems built over the last decade that transform how we plan, coordinate, connect, learn, and innovate
• Recent efforts to support human practices and human experiences computationally
• Thoughts on why we need computational ecosystems, especially if we intend to not only meet our consequentialist aims but to deepen our engagement in intrinsically valuable human activities
