NDLI: Awareness seeds for more gender diversity in computer science education

Content Provider	ACM Digital Library
Author	Köppe, Christian Bartilla, Anne
Abstract	Computer Science is still not a very diverse field, it is mainly male-dominated. The picture in Computer Science Education is not much better. In the Netherlands, only 4-5% of the CS students are female. We believe that one of the first steps required for changing this situation is to create a higher level of awareness of this status quo and its implications. In this paper we propose five patterns that help lecturers to create such awareness as a first step towards a more gender-diverse student population.
