Humanizing Computer Science Education: Addressing Critical Issues for K–12 Teaching and Learning
Sun, April 11, 4:10 to 5:40pm EDT (4:10 to 5:40pm EDT), Division C, Division C - Section 1e: Engineering and Computer Science Structured Poster SessionSession Type: Structured Poster Session
Abstract
Due to the scarcity of Black and Brown people in computing, efforts have been made to broaden participation through providing inclusive CS learning opportunities to minoritized youth. However, if we do not address the issues of white supremacy and the role it plays in the exclusion of minoritized groups from computing, we risk perpetuating the same systems of oppression in our CS learning activities and dehumanizing our students. In this poster session, scholars discuss (1) theoretical perspectives that center the humanization and critical consciousness development of learners, educators, and researchers as well as (2) design opportunities for creating rigorous and relevant learning opportunities highlighting the ways CS can be used as a tool for critical reflection and social transformation.
