Abstract

Moving K-16 teaching and learning online, an almost global response to COVID-19 pandemic, raises concerns around offering equitable learning opportunities for all. The move online can amplify already existing disparities in student participation where minoritized student populations rarely feel belonging and able to participate. Most of what we know about equity-oriented learning opportunities and pedagogies has been conducted within physical learning spaces. In this symposium, we bring together five studies that have analyzed different facets of this transition from physical into online computing education across a variety of settings, exploring ways of supporting teachers and learners in K-16 computing settings when teaching online.
