1 ENGAGING UNDERREPRESENTED YOUTH IN COMPUTER SCIENCE Jennifer Argüello and Tiffany Price, Kapor Center for Social Impact Dr. Alexis Martin and Frieda McAlear, Level Playing Field Institute Omoju Miller, UC Berkeley and Google Dr. Dan Garcia, UC Berkeley
2 Assumptions Our Audience Defining underrepresented Principles for teaching underrepresented youth Cultural competency and relevance Unique barriers to participation Whole child vs. colorblind strategies
3 Survey of the Room CS bachelor s degree (or higher)? 25%+ youth from underrepresented populations? Less than 2 years of CS teaching experience?
4 Session Flow Panelist presentations Partnerships Parents Pedagogy Pathways (Practice) Q & A
5 Level Playing Field Institute Mission Level Playing Field Institute is committed to eliminating the barriers faced by underrepresented people of color in science, technology, engineering and mathematics and fostering their untapped talent for the advancement of our nation.
6 Areas of focus To improve access and opportunity in STEM, LPFI: Operates STEM-Focused Education Programs 5-week, 3-summer H.S. residential program (SMASH) School year out-of-school M.S. program (SMASH:Prep) Executes Innovative Computer Science Initiatives Conducts Research on STEM Equity and Opportunity.
7 Underrepresentation in CS Nationwide, African Americans and Latinos combined account for only: 17% of all computer science Bachelor s degrees 7% of all computer science Ph.D. s 6% of computer science faculty 9% of the computing workforce nationwide Source: NSF, 2012, 2013
8 Causes of underrepresentation include: Lack of engaging /culturally relevant CS curriculum, and lack of access to rigorous CS courses Lack of diverse role models & peer networks Negative racial & gender stereotypes about ability Unwelcoming school & workplace environments
9 To engage underrepresented students, our summer and school-year CS programs include: Diverse CS role models & peers Speakers of color from tech industry CS-focused field trips LPFI s programs Community-building activities Family recognition events Addressing misconceptions about CS Youth empowerment (asset-based lens) Rigorous, culturally-relevant CS curriculum
10 Curriculum content connects to students life experiences Student-directed projects & topics Inquiry-based, social justice focus (solve community problems) High school: ECS, BJCx Online freely available curricula Middle school: Communication technologies & mobile apps App Inventor Podcasting, web design, video game programming
11 Outcomes (2014 pre to post) 94% of students increased CS assessment scores Statistically significant increase in students familiarity with programming languages Significant increase in students attitudes towards CS Percentage of students who: like computer increased from 59% to 87% see examples of CS in their everyday lives increased (69% to 86%) believe CS can be a tool to solve community issues increased (63% to 80%)
12 My computer science class had the biggest impact on me and I have learned that I have an interest in computer science.
13 I learned how to connect social justice to mobile apps.
14 Broadening CS participation: Partnership examples 1) Teacher at underresourced OUSD HS created AP CS course from ground up 100% low-income students of color Industry volunteers co-teach through TEALs (nationwide resource of volunteer CS teachers) Outside orgs for pre-ap exposure (Girls Who Code, Girl Code, Yes We Code, CodeNow) Guest speakers Coding club Start-up weekend/hackathons
15 2) OUSD CS Working Group Co-founded by OUSD and LPFI CS, Math, & Science teachers, administrators, OUSD board member, non-profit partners Survey on assets & challenges to broadening CS sent to teachers & admins Committees formed based on results, to address challenges and design policy vision
16 Extracurricular Activities Hackathons and competitions Developer Conferences Mentorship Internships Family Engagement Entrepreneurship
17 Hackathons/Competitions UY: LPFI Level the Coding Field Black Code Girls Qeyno Labs Yes We Code Hackathons HackerFund (school specific) Technovation Challenge NCWIT Aspirations in Computing
18 Developer Conferences: Grace Hopper Celebration of Women in Computing Google I/O F8 WWDC
19 Mentorship and Internships: imentor (AFSE) Mentorship Local professional organizations NSBE SHPE SWE INROADS Various Company HS Internships Microsoft Various National Laboratories
20 Family Engagement: Multi-lingual Information on what is CS Parent-Student Workshops Computer Science Fair/Open House
21 Entrepreneurship: Selling what you build Design Thinking Skills Real-world Product Development Rapid Prototyping Economic Opportunity
22 Culturally Relevant curriculum Culturally Relevant Pedagogy vs. Culturally Responsive Find ways to build upon culture of the student Bring in relevant industry conversation
23 Sense of Belonging CRITICAL Student led projects This fosters a deeper sense of belonging
24 Adding Value to Community Have student share their work with external community Let them get used to getting feedback Let them get used to adding value to larger CS community Kano World Scratch Community Github and meet ups (Where appropriate)
25 Gender Matters Gender matters even in curriculum
26 Slides and Additional Resources Slides - TBD Resource List -
27 Culturally Relevant curriculum Culturally Relevant Pedagogy ú Find ways to build upon culture of the student ú Bring in relevant industry conversation Make sure that our teaching is aligned with what best serves our students. Gladson Billings (guru of culturally relevant teaching), we should be injecting EDUCATION into CULTURE and not the other way around Engaging Underrepresented Students (1) Garcia 2014 UCB
28 Sense of Belonging CRITICAL Student-led projects foster a deep sense of it In this class, I feel I belong Engaging Underrepresented Students (2) Garcia 2014 UCB
29 Belonging I feel my ideas count Engaging Underrepresented Students (3) Garcia 2014 UCB
30 Gender Matters Gender challenges still persist ú I know how to write a computer program to solve a problem Engaging Underrepresented Students (4) Garcia 2014 UCB
31 Adding Value to Community Have student share their work with external community ú Let them get used to getting feedback ú Let them get used to adding value to larger CS community Kano World Scratch Community Github and meet ups (where appropriate) Engaging Underrepresented Students (5) Garcia 2014 UCB

34 BJC Award-winning Projects being demonstrated at CS Ed Day 2010 Let older students show younger students great examples of what can be done!
35 BFOIT Middle-School (SCI-FY) and High-School (ITLP) Summer Graduations 2-week Summer Institute in August, Monthly meetings Let them demo their (choose-your-own) final projects to friends and family!
36 CS Scholars Program follows a cohort model; these students take the same courses and are placed in the same discussion sections in our CS program. Keep a cohort together so folks never feel isolated!
37 One way to get computing into K-12 New Course: Computer Science : Principles ú Engaging, accessible, inspiring, rigorous ú Focused on the fundamental concepts of computing (Computational Thinking) ú An impetus for college curriculum reform SINGLE SOURCE OF NATIONAL LEVERAGE! csprinciples.org Engaging Underrepresented Students (12) Garcia 2014 UCB
