Unequal Pathways
Young children are generally enthusiastic about digital technology, yet participation in early computer science pathways remains unequal. Because U.S. children often learn computing outside of school, field-specific knowledge within families may play a greater role than socioeconomic status (SES) in reproducing inequality. The authors evaluate support for the social reproduction and occupational inheritance models by examining middle school stude…
Connecting Spaces
Informed by evidence that computing attitudes may be uniquely constructed in informal contexts and that the early teens are a key period for academic decision-making, we investigate lines of practice that connect computing skills, attitudes, and videogames. We compare the relationship between computer skill, computer efficacy, and activities associated with gaming using a data set of 3,868 children in middle school. The time that children spend g…
Gender Differences in Academic Efficacy across STEM Fields
Cultural processes can reduce self-selection into math and science fields, but it remains unclear how confidence in computer science develops, where women are currently the least represented in STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics). Few studies evaluate both computer skills and self-assessments of skill. In this paper, we evaluate gender differences in efficacy across three STEM fields using a data set of middle schoolers, a pa…
