Mentoring Roles in an Afterschool STEM Mentoring Program: An Investigation of Why Mentors Enact Different Roles
PublicationsThe purposes of this study were to describe the roles mentors enacted as part of an afterschool STEM program and how those roles varied across three sites and to explain those differences. Design: We used a comparative case study design. We collected data primarily from interviews with program mentors and observations of the sessions. Findings: We found the mentors played four roles, depending on the school site: teachers, friends, support, and role models. Mentors interpreted cues from the environment in light of their own identities, which ultimately led them to construct a plausible
Black Women Speak: Examining Power, Privilege, and Identity in CS Education
PublicationsDespite the increasing number of women receiving bachelor’s degrees in computing (i.e., Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Information Technology, etc.), a closer look reveals that the percentage of Black women in computing has significantly dropped in recent years, highlighting the underrepresentation of Black women and its negative impact on broadening participation in the field of computing. The literature reveals that several K-16 interventions have been designed to increase the representation of Black women and girls in computing. Despite these best efforts, the needle seems to have
Restorying a Black girl’s future: Using womanist storytelling methodologies to reimagine dominant narratives in computing education
PublicationsBackground: Scholarship demonstrates that Black girls’ capacities to imagine possible futures in comput- ing are constrained by narratives of white masculinity and misogynoir embedded within computing. Building on race critical code studies and identity-as-narrative theories, we examine restorying through Black woma- nist storytelling methodologies for integrating Black girls’ intersectional identities when designing and reim- agining their computing futures. We ask: How might womanist storytelling methods support one Black girl in restorying possible computing futures? Methods: We present a
