Lyon, Louise Ann; Schatz, Colin; Toyama, Yukie; Torres, David – Community College Journal of Research and Practice, 2022
As open-access institutions serving diverse student populations, community colleges are perfect settings for broadening participation in computing efforts in higher education. The very nature of open access, however, places students with a wide variety of previous experience in the same introductory computer science classroom, intimidating the…

David Van Nguyen; Cecilia Rios-Aguilar; S. Michael Gaddis – Community College Journal of Research and Practice, 2024
Research suggests that community college alumni may be underrepresented within PhD programs. As such, we implemented and evaluated the Community College to PhD (CC2PhD) Scholars Program at the University of California, Los Angeles. CC2PhD was a 7-month undergraduate research and PhD preparation program for community college sophomores in the…
