自由和开源软件(FOSS)项目透明地运作,为计算机专业的学生提供了获得和实践高需求的技术和软技能的绝佳教育机会。人道主义自由和开源软件(HFOSS)项目是广泛但有意地以改善人类状况为目标的自由和开源软件项目。本文分析了五年两个学期的顶点经验的数据,在这个经验中,学生考虑了一些自由/开源/高自由/开源项目,并选择了一个参与其中。研究结果支持这样的断言,即对自己的软件开发和团队合作技能缺乏信心的女性和学生更喜欢具有人道主义目标的项目。数据分析表明,非裔美国人、黑人和西班牙裔(ABH)学生也可能对具有人道主义目标的项目表现出偏好。对课前调查数据的探索性分析进一步深入了解了性别、种族/民族、学生信心和对社区的看法如何影响项目选择,有助于确定进一步调查的重要方向。总的来说,本文提出的结果强化了这样的建议:将HFOSS,或者更一般地说,具有社会价值的计算结合起来,具有扩大计算参与的潜力。
Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) projects operate transparently, providing excellent educational opportunities for computing students to acquire and practice both technical and softer skills that are in high demand. Humanitarian Free and Open Source Software (HFOSS) projects are FOSS projects that broadly but intentionally aim to improve the human condition. This paper analyzes data from five years of a two-semester capstone experience in which students consider a number of FOSS and/or HFOSS projects and choose one to engage with. Findings support assertions that projects with humanitarian goals are preferred by both women and students with lower confidence in their software development and teamwork skills. The data analysis is suggestive that African American, Black and Hispanic (ABH) students may also show preferences for projects with humanitarian goals. An exploratory analysis of pre-course survey data adds additional insight into how gender, race/ethnicity, student confidence and perceptions of community may influence project selection, helping to identify important directions for further investigation. Collectively the results presented here reinforce suggestions that incorporating HFOSS, or more generally computing with social value, holds potential for broadening participation in computing.
