This project will review and synthesize existing literature on factors that impact the interest, participation, retention and success of women of color in computing and technology fields. This type of project informs areas for future research and helps to identify promising practices that others can implement. The project will result in a report to help inform those who are practitioners in STEM education, STEM employers, and STEM policy makers. This project is a mixed-methods meta-synthesis that will analyze and integrate the findings from empirical research on the factors that affect the retention of women of color in technology and computing higher education and careers. Focusing on literature produced since 2000, this synthesis will address the main research question: According to the existing empirical literature, what factors affect the experiences, participation, and advancement of women of color in technology and computing from the stages of early college education through their careers? The goals of the project are to: (1) build new knowledge and understanding of the factors affecting the retention of women of color in technology and computing; (2) identify gaps in research; (3) inform leaders in the field about promising policies and practices that retain women of color in technology and computing; and (4) make methodological contributions through the testing and refinement of meta-synthesis tools and processes. This project is supported by the Education and Human Resources Core Research Program, which funds fundamental research in STEM learning and learning environments, broadening participation in STEM, and STEM workforce development.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

该项目将审查和综合现有文献的影响因素的兴趣，参与，保留和成功的有色人种妇女在计算和技术领域。 这种类型的项目为未来的研究领域提供信息，并有助于确定其他人可以实施的有希望的做法。 该项目将产生一份报告，以帮助通知那些谁是在干教育，干雇主和干政策制定者的从业者。 该项目是一个混合方法的综合集成，将分析和整合影响有色人种女性在技术和计算机高等教育和职业中保留的因素的实证研究结果。关注自2000年以来产生的文献，这种综合将解决主要的研究问题：根据现有的实证文献，什么因素影响的经验，参与，并从早期的大学教育阶段，通过他们的职业生涯中的彩色女性在技术和计算的进步？ 该项目的目标是：（1）建立新的知识和理解的影响因素的保留在技术和计算的颜色的妇女;（2）确定研究的差距;（3）告知该领域的领导人关于有前途的政策和做法，保留在技术和计算的颜色的妇女;以及（4）通过测试和改进综合集成工具和流程，在方法上做出贡献。 该项目由教育和人力资源核心研究计划支持，该计划资助STEM学习和学习环境的基础研究，扩大STEM参与，以及STEM劳动力发展。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
