Counter-Hegemonic Computing: Toward Computer Science Education for Value Generation and Emancipation
Eglash, Ron; Bennett, Audrey; Cooke, Laquana; Babbitt, William; Lachney, Michael – ACM Transactions on Computing Education, 2021
Students' lives, both in and out of school, are full of different forms of value. Wealthy students enjoy value in the form of financial capital; their fit to hegemonic social practices; excellent health care and so on. Low-income students, especially those from African American, Native American, and Latinx communities, often lack access to those…

Eglash, Ron; Krishnamoorthy, Mukkai; Sanchez, Jason; Woodbridge, Andrew – ACM Transactions on Computing Education, 2011
This article describes the use of fractal simulations of African design in a high school computing class. Fractal patterns--repetitions of shape at multiple scales--are a common feature in many aspects of African design. In African architecture we often see circular houses grouped in circular complexes, or rectangular houses in rectangular…
