This paper will make a case for implementing an interest-based framework for creating engineering design challenges within Classroom Makerspaces as a means to improve the inclusion of women and underrepresented minorities in K-12 engineering and design learning. © American...

Curriculum is not enough: The educational theory and research foundation of the Exploring Computer Science professional development model.

Goode J, Margolis J, Chapman G.
UIID-AD: 4466
2014;493-498. doi: 10.1145/2538862.2538948.

In recent years, the computer science education community has shown strong commitment to broadening participation in computing in K-12 classrooms. Educational research highlights the critical role of professional development in supporting teachers to attract and effectively teach underrepresented students...

Formal research experiences for first year students: A key to greater diversity in computing?.

Stout JG, Tamer NB, Alvarado CJ.
UIID-AD: 4874
2018;693-698. doi: 10.1145/3159450.3159472.

Underrepresented students in computing (women and non-White/non-Asian men) are known to feel a weaker sense of belonging than majority students (Asian/White men). This difference is important because a low sense of belonging can lead to disengagement and attrition in...
