随着时间的推移,关于计算机在社会中的作用的主导叙事不断演变,计算机教育的规范和价值观也在不断变化。在当前不断发展的计算机教育环境中,研究人员和实践者提倡确保来自所有背景的人,特别是妇女、非二进制、黑人、土著和拉丁裔人,能够公平地参与计算机领域。然而,计算机教育经历的价值被狭隘地限定在职业结果中,比如确保在计算机领域的职业生涯,而将许多重要的经验和参与该领域的方式排除在外。为了解决这一问题,我们对参与扩大计算机(BPC)项目的女性进行了反思性访谈,以了解她们对计算机的看法,以及它如何与她们在计算机学习环境中所看重的经历相一致(或不一致)。我们调查了以下研究问题:(1)参与BPC计划的女性如何描述她们对计算机的看法?(2)这些看法如何与他们所重视的项目结果一致或不一致?我们的研究结果引起了人们对以BPC工作为中心的“计算机职业”所产生的紧张关系的关注,并强调了我们研究中女性所重视的参与的结果,例如发展社区和关系,获得沟通技巧,以及扩展计算机科学家应该拥有的技能的观点。
Norms and values in computing education are constantly changing as dominant narratives about the role of computing in society evolve over time. Within the current evolving landscape of computing education, researchers and practitioners have advocated for ensuring people from all backgrounds, and particularly women, non-binary, and Black, Indigenous, and Latinx people, are able to participate equitably within the field of computing. Yet, the values of computing educational experiences are narrowly framed within career outcomes, such as securing a career in computing, leaving many important experiences and ways of participating in the field out of the picture. To address this, we conducted reflective interviews with women who participated in broadening participation in computing (BPC) programs to understand their perceptions of computing and how it aligns (or not) with what they value about their experiences in computing learning environments. We investigate the following research questions: (1) How do women who participated in BPC programs describe their perceptions of computing? (2) How do those perceptions align or misalign with the program outcomes they valued? The findings from our study call attention to tensions arising from centering “computing careers” in BPC work and highlight the outcomes of participation valued by the women in our study, such as developing communities and relationships, gaining communication skills, and expanding perspectives on skills computer scientists should possess.
