dc.description.abstract
This paper presents two innovative extensions of the classic Human Sorting Network (HSN) activity from the CS Unplugged program. First, we describe the implementation of a large-scale HSN with 50 input nodes, realized with high school students in Vienna, Austria. We detail the logistical challenges and solutions for creating an HSN of this magnitude, including location selection, network layout, and participant coordination. Second, we report on using parallel 6-input HSNs, which introduce a competitive element and enhance engagement. This parallel setup allows for races between teams and can be adapted for various age groups and knowledge levels. Both extensions aim to increase the educational impact and enjoyment of the HSN activity. We provide comprehensive insights into our experiences, enabling other educators and researchers to replicate or further develop these HSN variants.
