Gender and Performance in Computer Science

ACM Transactions on Computing Education, 2016
The term gender gap refers to the significant underrepresentation of females in many subjects. In Computer Science, the gender gap exists at all career levels. In this article, we study whether there is a performance gap in addition to the gender gap. To

Exposing girls to computer science: Does the all-girl model really work?

2017 IEEE Integrated STEM Education Conference (ISEC), 2017
This case study is about the introduction of computer science to girls in an all-girl environment. Due to the lack of women in technology, many efforts are being made to expose girls to computer programming at an early age. Code camp organizers are using the all-girl model to help put participants more at ease and boost their computing confidence. High
