We ran the Sexism Response Workshop for a class of 92 undergraduate students, splitting the students into two groups to make the workshop manageable. The workshop was run by a theater facilitator and was based on Augusto Boal's ‘Theater of the Oppressed’ methodology. We report how the workshop was conducted, the types of roleplay situations and the responses of the students and observers, as well as written responses of some students who chose to blog about the activity the following week.","PeriodicalId":304280,"journal":{"name":"2016 Research on Equity and Sustained Participation in Engineering, Computing, and Technology (RESPECT)","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123427337","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}

Many strategies and metrics have been proposed to foster and measure such skills. The poster presents an empirical study which measures the understanding, recognition and rule construction ability of rising 3rd to 5th grade students from underrepresented communities. This poster also focuses on strategies for engaging students and reflects the importance of a coherent computer science curriculum which includes collaboration and individual activities supported by a graphical tool like Microsoft's Kodu Game Lab.","PeriodicalId":304280,"journal":{"name":"2016 Research on Equity and Sustained Participation in Engineering, Computing, and Technology (RESPECT)","volume":"52 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132577894","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}

We share our design process, lessons learned, and recommendations for designing accessible informal computing events for youth.","PeriodicalId":304280,"journal":{"name":"2016 Research on Equity and Sustained Participation in Engineering, Computing, and Technology (RESPECT)","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133484781","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}

Programming Boot Camp to retain women in IT: An experience report 留住IT女性的编程训练营:一份经验报告

Consequently, students may delay enrolling in programming courses, which interrupts progress towards their degree and decreases confidence in their ability to succeed in college and computing careers. One strategy to overcome the perceived and actual difficulties undergraduate students encounter in an introductory programming course is to participate in a summer Programming Boot Camp (PBC). PBC is a short-term, intense event focused on improving Java programming skills, providing career and professional development, and building a stronger network with faculty, peers, and industry experts. In this paper, we describe the structure and format of a weeklong PBC held at Georgia Gwinnett College (GGC) for female computing undergraduates. We report on the impacts of the program in terms of increasing confidence, improving programming skills, and encouraging student engagement.","PeriodicalId":304280,"journal":{"name":"2016 Research on Equity and Sustained Participation in Engineering, Computing, and Technology (RESPECT)","volume":"118 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122747236","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}

How CS departments are managing the enrolment boom: Troubling implications for diversity 计算机系如何管理招生热潮:对多样性的令人不安的影响

Easterbrook","doi":"10.1109/RESPECT.2016.7836180","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/RESPECT.2016.7836180","url":null,"abstract":"Enrolments in North American undergraduate computer science have been booming in recent years, and many CS departments have been struggling to meet student demand. We surveyed 78 CS professors, instructors, staff, and administrators to see how the enrolment boom has been affecting their practice; and to see how departments are responding in terms of policy. We asked participants to tell us what factors were being considered in their department's policymaking using a page of open-ended questions. Only one participant of 78 noted diversity as a concern. We then gave them a list of factors we thought could affect their department's policymaking, including diversity. After this prompt, more participants reported diversity was important (n=5). We found that policymakers are favouring solutions which are intuitive to them, rather than looking for examples from the literature, similar institutions, or the history of their own institution. Problematically, many of these favoured approaches have historically been linked to having a negative impact on demographic diversity in CS programmes. This could exacerbate the low participation of underrepresented groups in computer science, and undermine efforts to improve diversity.","PeriodicalId":304280,"journal":{"name":"2016 Research on Equity and Sustained Participation in Engineering, Computing, and Technology (RESPECT)","volume":"os-26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127693412","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}
