有色人种女性是美国人口的重要组成部分，但她们在计算机教育和劳动力市场中的代表性仍然不足，并且在数据收集和报告、研究以及增加计算机多样性的干预措施中常常被忽视。该研究小组将概述有色人种女性当前面临的挑战，并重点介绍开发、测试和扩展战略以改善有色人种女性在计算领域的成果的举措。该小组旨在提高观众对挑战和机遇的理解，同时鼓励观众采取行动并将新的见解和策略应用于当地情况，以改善有色人种女性的成果。该小组的目的不仅是为了强调项目，更重要的是，开始战略性地、科学地、协作地改善整个计算管道中有色人种妇女和女孩的成果。该小组的目标受众包括 K-12 计算机教育工作者、计算机教师、教育非营利组织领导者、研究人员和慈善界。
Women of color comprise a critical segment of the United States population, yet they remain underrepresented in computing education and the workforce and often overlooked in data collection and reporting, research, and interventions to increase diversity in computing. This panel of researchers will provide an overview of the current challenges facing women of color, and highlight initiatives to develop, test, and scale strategies to improve the outcomes of women of color in computing. This panel aims to increase audience understanding of the challenges and opportunities, while inspiring the audience to take action and apply emerging insights and strategies to their local contexts, in order to improve outcomes for women of color. The intention is that this panel is not merely intended to highlight programs, but more importantly, to begin to strategically, scientifically, and collaboratively improve the outcomes for women and girls of color across the computing pipeline. The intended audience for this panel include K-12 computing educators, computing faculty, education nonprofit leaders, researchers and the philanthropic community.
