Both teachers and students move through educational systems that have both direct and indirect effects on equity, quality, and implementation. Prior research has shown that there is a gap in enthusiasm and perception of importance of CS education between teachers and school leadership [2]. Additionally, many CS education studies have reported teacher attrition after professional development due to institutional barriers [3,4]. The recent report released by Google [2] mentions implementation 34 times and highlights the barriers faced by teachers and students when the systems are not aligned with the goals of individuals. In this poster we present data from 63 district teams participating in CSforALL SCRIPT workshops [1]. During the workshops, teams were asked to self-assess against a rubric signposting the growth toward high-quality CS education implementation and set goals for themselves to increase rigorous CS education instruction and equitable participation of students. This paper analyzes a subset of the 1023 goals collected by CSforALL to date [5], specifically focused on the goals related to landscaping, or district identification of resources and needs. This data corpus is comprised of 98 goals set by 38 school districts. Analysis takes a mixed methods approach, sharing quantitative data about the focus of the goals, as well as a qualitative analysis of how leadership teams sought to gain information about their own implementation.","PeriodicalId":174454,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 2019 ACM Conference on International Computing Education Research","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-07-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128286459","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Mentors in the workplace are crucial in such cooperative programmes as they scaffold appropriate development activities for students. A workplace mentor in this situation is important not only for the development of detailed technical knowledge, but also in the development of software engineering skills that are almost never in fact taught in higher education, e.g. navigating large, neglected code bases. Consequently, workplace mentors are a key component of any high-quality education programme delivered in partnership with industry. However, higher education institutions and enterprises not only need to appreciate the importance of mentors in such schemes, but also ensure such staff are supported to use their experience to increase their skill as a mentor. Mentors need the space and support to reflect on their own practice, develop skills and attain new knowledge. In this sense, the challenge is not dissimilar to that faced by computing science school teachers that need to continually consider their own practice as well as have the time to consider emerging programming languages and frameworks. Many of the structures and existing research on how to support computing science school teachers could be adapted to support these workplace mentors, e.g. support groups. In this poster, we present initial research and models for mentoring mentors in cooperative software engineering programmes. The aim is to share initial work, receive feedback and to connect with potential collaborators.","PeriodicalId":174454,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 2019 ACM Conference on International Computing Education Research","volume":"44 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-07-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127925220","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The researchers identified several influences contributing to a gender gap in computing education and they called these influences the doors, walls and windows of the computing clubhouse. In order to determine whether or not a gender gap exists in Ontario high school CS, this research analyzes enrollment figures provided by the province and concludes that during the 2017-2018 school year, females made up only 26.6% of students enrolled in the grade 10 course, 20.4% of students enrolled in the grade 11 courses, and 15.7% of the students enrolled in the grade 12 courses. Enrollment numbers from 2009 to 2017 revealed a similar pattern. The research also explores the impact that a gender gap may have on economic and educational opportunities for underrepresented groups in Ontario and identifies scalable solutions and frameworks [2] that may help dismantle the doors, walls, and windows of high school CS education in Ontario. This research is timely considering that the Ontario Ministry of Education recently announced a strategy to revise high school CS curriculum [3] while Canada's federal government announced an additional $60 million of funding to support the CanCode K-12 coding initiative [4]. Research seeking to provide insight into existing gender gaps in CS education and potential frameworks that may help improve diversity and inclusivity in CS curriculum and policy initiatives is critical considering the potential impact and missed opportunities that result from a CS student population and workforce lacking in diversity.","PeriodicalId":174454,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 2019 ACM Conference on International Computing Education Research","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-07-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127183427","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Much of the research towards this end has focused on supporting learning in science, engineering, and mathematics (or STEM). However, a trend towards computing in non-STEM disciplines is growing, yet the research base is more limited. We add to this emerging area of research by investigating the potential for integrating computing and literacy education. This paper reports the results of a six-week intervention during an after-school program in a British primary school. We describe the development of a curriculum unit and report on the first iterative cycle in a design-based research project. Our analysis shows that integrating programming and literacy activities supported novice learners in areas of computing such as algorithm design and program execution through a combination of short problem-based tasks and longer project-based activities. Likewise, programming supported learners in creating digital stories by visualizing narrative structure though some caveats were found. We discuss the results of this study and implications for future work in this area.","PeriodicalId":174454,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 2019 ACM Conference on International Computing Education Research","volume":"427 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-07-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116698356","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
