Amoudi, Ghada; Tbaishat, Dina – Education and Information Technologies, 2023
Social network analysis involves delicate and sophisticated mathematical concepts which are abstract and challenging to acquire by traditional methods. Many studies show that female students perform poorly in computer science-related courses compared to male students. To address these issues, this research investigates the impact of employing a…

Ren, Xinyue – TechTrends: Linking Research and Practice to Improve Learning, 2022
The participation and engagement of traditionally underrepresented students remained low in computer science subjects and career paths, especially women and women of color. In terms of the urgent need to achieve intellectual diversity within the computer science field, many institutions strived to broaden the participation of women and women of…

Students from underrepresented populations--females, working class, and youth from marginalized racial/ethnic groups--are less likely than their middle-class Asian and White male peers to study computer science (CS) in college. The dearth of CS undergraduates from these groups contributes to projected labor force shortages. Sources of the dilemma…

Ashcraft, Catherine; Eger, Elizabeth K.; Scott, Kimberly A. – Anthropology & Education Quarterly, 2017
Drawing from our two-year ethnography, we juxtapose the experiences of two cohorts in one culturally responsive computing program, examining how the program fostered girls' emerging identities as technosocial change agents. In presenting this in-depth and up-close exploration, we simultaneously identify conditions that both facilitated and limited…

Champion, Dionne N.; Tucker-Raymond, Eli; Millner, Amon; Gravel, Brian; Wright, Christopher G.; Likely, Rasheda; Allen-Handy, Ayana; Dandridge, Tikyna M. – Information and Learning Sciences, 2020
Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to explore the designed cultural ecology of a hip-hop and computational science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) camp and the ways in which that ecology contributed to culturally sustaining learning experiences for middle school youth. In using the principles of hip-hop as a CSP for design, the…

Ryoo, Jean J. – ACM Transactions on Computing Education, 2019
The Computer Science (CS) for All movement has taken hold of the United States and CS education is rapidly expanding across nations throughout the world. Yet, as curricula and professional development opportunities are developed, key questions remain about what "works" for engaging youth in CS education, especially those who are…

Leonard, Hayley C.; Sentance, Sue – International Journal of Computer Science Education in Schools, 2021
The underrepresentation of certain groups in computing has led to increasing efforts to develop computing curricula that is responsive and relevant to a more diverse group of learners. The current paper used a Quick Scoping Review methodology to identify research that has implemented and evaluated culturally responsive and relevant K-12 computing…

Pon-Barry, Heather; Packard, Becky Wai-Ling; St. John, Audrey – Computer Science Education, 2017
A dilemma within computer science departments is developing sustainable ways to expand capacity within introductory computer science courses while remaining committed to inclusive practices. Training near-peer mentors for peer code review is one solution. This paper describes the preparation of near-peer mentors for their role, with a focus on…

Garrett, Frances; Price, Matt; Strazds, Laila; Walker, Dawn – Canadian Journal of Learning and Technology, 2019
This report introduces a two-week workshop on web coding and environmental sustainability at a school for girls in Northeastern India. Our discussion of this teaching project reviews issues that shaped the project's development, outlines resources required for implementation, and summarizes the workshop's curriculum. High-speed Internet will soon…

Genoways, Sharon K. – ProQuest LLC, 2017
STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) education creates critical thinkers, increases science literacy, and enables the next generation of innovators, which leads to new products and processes that sustain our economy (Hossain & Robinson, 2012). We have been hearing the warnings for several years, that there simply are not enough…

Dahya, Negin; Jenson, Jennifer; Fong, Katrina – Review of Education, Pedagogy & Cultural Studies, 2017
Few studies compare educational programming designed on principles of inclusive pedagogy and feminist practice for both girls and boys. Broadly defined, inclusive pedagogy refers to theory and practice in education that is adaptable and responsive to the intersections of difference (class, race, culture, gender, sexuality, ability) and aims to…

Effects of Teaching Critical Thinking to Saudi Female University Students Using a Stand-Alone Course
Al Ghamdi, Amani K. Hamdan; Deraney, Philline M. – International Education Studies, 2013
Teaching critical thinking, an educational goal widely discussed in the last 30 years (Halpern, 1993), is an essential element of professional and higher education as it promotes reasoned judgments under "conditions of uncertainty," a hallmark of professionalism (Levine, 2010; Shulman, 2005; Perry, 1970). In this study, the researchers…

Vekiri, Ioanna – Computers & Education, 2013
In this study, which was situated in the context of information science instruction, data were collected twice using student self-reports to examine the effects of pedagogical practices on changes in boys' and girls' expectancy and value beliefs about computing. Participants were 326 7th-grade students, enrolled in three middle schools that were…

Van Name, Barry – Tech Directions, 2012
There is a battlefield where no quarter is given, no mercy shown, but not a single drop of blood is spilled. It is an arena that witnesses the bringing together of high-tech design and manufacture with the outpouring of brute force, under the remotely accessed command of some of today's brightest students. This is the world of battling robots, or…

Carbonaro, Mike; Szafron, Duane; Cutumisu, Maria; Schaeffer, Jonathan – Computers & Education, 2010
Enrollment in Computing Science university programs is at a dangerously low level. A major reason for this is the general lack of interest in Computing Science by females. In this paper, we discuss our experience with using a computer game construction environment as a vehicle to encourage female participation in Computing Science. Experiments…
