CSCI 391 - Diversity and Equity in Computer Science

HC NSMA

2 credits
In this seminar, we will discuss current computer science education research on ways in which the discipline can be made to be more welcoming to all students (especially traditionally under-served populations such as non-male and non-white/Asian students), and ways in which the pedagogical burden can be improved so that those who do not have substantial prior experience with computers can learn optimally. Students will be expected to read, critique, and present on current research in computer science education. Field trip(s) required.

Prerequisites: CSCI 150.
