Epistemic culture<\/span><\/h2>\n

The study of informatics and analytics offers opportunities to explore on our shared epistemic culture.\n<\/p>\n

Karin Cestina[1]<\/a><\/sup> says of an epistemic culture:\n<\/p>\n

\nEveryone knows what science is about: it is about knowledge, the \u2018objective\u2019 and perhaps \u2018true\u2019 representation of the world as it really is. The problem is that no one is quite sure how scientists and other experts arrive at this knowledge. The notion of epistemic culture is designed to capture these interiorised processes of knowledge creation. It refers to those sets of practices, arrangements and mechanisms bound together by necessity, affinity and historical coincidence which, in a given area of professional expertise, make up how we know what we know. Epistemic cultures are cultures of creating and warranting knowledge.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\nShe adds that “the focus in an epistemic culture approach is on the construction of the machineries<\/b> of knowledge construction” [2]<\/a><\/sup> (our emphasis).\n<\/p>\n

In this topic, there are three examples of the ethical issues raised by sport informatics and analytics: philosophy; socio-cultural; and pegadagogy.\n<\/p>\n
