  • Arts-Integrated Science Engagement for Middle School Girls
    It got me back to science and now I want to be a plant scientist: Arts-integrated science engagement for middle school girls Sheron L. Mark, Ph.D., Geena M. Constantin, M.A.T., M.Ed., Terri L. Tinnell, M.A.T., & Olivia Alexander, M.Ed Corresponding Author: Sheron Mark, Ph.D. Department of Elementary, Middle, and Secondary Teacher Education, College of Education and Human Development, University of Louisville, Louisville, KY 40292. Email: [email protected] Phone: (502) 852 - 1362 Key Words arts integration; middle school females; science interest; science career development Abstract While middle school is a critical phase for science career development for all students (Maltese & Tai, 2009), this stage presents considerations for females in science, in particular. During middle school, the decline in science interest is greater for females than males and, for most students, the level of science interest developed during this middle school stage will persist throughout their lifetime, thereby influencing science career interests and attainment (Todd & Zvoch, 2017). This study aimed to stimulate and sustain middle school female students' interest in science study and careers by transforming opportunities for their participation in classroom science in ways that better appealed to and supported female science students. Research has shown that collaborative and active engagement with peers, hands-on and tangible modes of engagement, significant real-world connections, and choice have been effective in supporting middle school female students in science. Arts-integration has been explored as a cohesive framework that could potentially incorporate each of these characteristics into a science learning environment for five middle school female students.

  • Subtle and Not-So-Subtle Messages of Non-Inclusion
    2017 ASEE Zone II Conference Subtle and Not-So-Subtle Messages of Non-Inclusion Claire McCullough, Svetlana Chesser and Bart Weathington University of Tennessee at Chattanooga Abstract Numbers involved in the gender gap in computer science are substantial and growing. The gender gap has been slowly decreasing in most STEM fields, with several showing significant gains, leading some to believe that time will solve the problem. However, the percentage of degrees awarded to women in computer science peaked in 1986, and has been significantly decreasing ever since.1 Many studies have been performed, and many hypotheses formed to try to explain why this is so. One hypothesized reason is that subtle, and not-so-subtle, messages convey to women in computer professions that these are “men’s fields;” another, that cyberbullying affects women disproportionately. Both may cause women to leave computer professions. This paper gives examples of messages of non-inclusion, discusses preliminary results of an on-going study on cyberbullying, and invites discussion of what those both in, and outside, the computer professions can do to address the climate for women. Keywords Gender Gap, Diversity, Under-represented groups. Introduction While many studies have been performed, and many hypotheses have been formed to try to explain why fewer women pursue careers in computer fields, the magnitude of gender disparity has continued to increase. Not only are proportionately fewer women going into computer fields than into other STEM fields in the United States, according to the New York Times, 56% of the women who go into technology, 47% of the women who go into science, and 39% of the women who go into engineering wind up leaving these professions.2 The two possible reasons discussed in this paper, messages of non-inclusion and cyberbullying, have the potential to affect women both before selecting a profession and afterwards.

  • 4 Research on Gender in Relation to the Computer, and Pedagogy and Programming in School
    University of Bergen Department of Linguistic, Literary and Aesthetic Studies DIKULT350 Master’s Thesis in Digital Culture Fall 2017 Programming in School An insight to the Norwegian programming pilot and the inclusion/exclusion of girls in computer programming education Fay Pedersen Tveranger 2 Sammendrag Pilotprosjektet i programmering som ble igangsatt høsten 2016, og inkluderte i starten 146 norske skoler. Det nye prosjektet har blant annet ledet til debatter om temaer som lærerkompetanse, inkludering av jenter og prosjektets egentlige relevans. En intensjon med dette prosjektet er å ta et dypdykk i programmerings piloten for å undersøke hva elever og lærere tenker om prosjektet, og programmering som et fag i den norske skolen. En annen intensjon er å eksaminere jenters posisjon i forbindelse med pilotprosjektet, og programmering og databruk. Studien fokuserer på å knytte pilotprosjektet og inkludering av jenter opp mot historiske kontekster og teori innen innføring av programmering i skolesystemet og kjønnede posisjoner innen databruk, og er en kvalitativ studie med deltakere involvert i programmeringspiloten. Resultatene viser til en positiv holdning fra både lærere og elever i forbindelse med implementering av programmering i undervisningen. I kontekst til ulikheter i kjønnsfordeling, viser studien til at det ikke tyder på at elevene har noen betydelig formening om at biologisk kjønn er en direkte årsak til ujevn kjønnsfordeling, mens det heller er individuelle interesser som ofte er det som danner grunnlaget for at programmering ikke blir valgt av jenter. i Acknowledgements I would like to express sincere gratitude to all the supportive and insightful people that have participated in the development of this project.

Abstract Social innovation is not new, but it is increasingly being called on to provide solutions to some of the world’s most pressing social and economic problems. Despite awareness about its importance, research in the field of social innovation is often vague, and there are competing definitions and understandings of the concept. There is also very little research that attempts to connect the field of social innovation with the fields of gender studies, women’s studies, feminist research, or men and masculinity studies.

This paper serves to discover the reasons for the imbalance of genders in Software Engineering and other STEM related fields. Bringing Women into Software Engineering Hassan Pournaghshband and Laura Johnson Kennesaw State University Kennesaw, Georgia USA ABSTRACT The gap between male and female participation in STEM related fields within the United States continues to widen. More specifically, women are a minority in Software Engineering careers and studies. This paper serves to discover the reasons for the imbalance of genders in Software Engineering and STEM related field and the primary reasons that young girls avoid technical subjects. This paper will serve as an exploration of the organizations designed to bring more women into technical positions and the successful women of Software Engineering careers. This paper also provides answer for two vital questions: What programs and techniques have successfully brought more women into STEM fields such as software engineering? Who are some of the women who have benefited from careers in software engineering? 1. INTRODUCTION The importance of students mastering skills in critical problem solving has become evident, yet the interest in the crucial STEM field, a necessary “tool for success,” has been decreasing.
