Previous research revealed a reduced number of female students registered in computer science studies. In addition, the female students feel isolated, have reduced confidence, and underperform. This article explores differences between female and...

Instructional simulation had major difficulties in the past for offering limited possibilities in practice and learning. This article proposes a link between instructional simulation and Web 2.0 technologies. More exactly, I present the design of...

This paper focused on gender imbalance in the computer science field. Comparisons between genders are considered for high school, university and after graduation in computer science disciplines. Why are so few females in computer science? What are...

This research explored difficulties that students encountered in adapting to undergraduate computer science programs at a medium sized university in Ontario. A joint perspective research paradigms between constructivism and critical theory is a...

The purpose of this research is to understand mathematics teachers’ integration of educational technology in the secondary school mathematics curriculum. We intend to understand, explore, and propose ways of improving mathematics education through...

The overall purpose of our research was not to find new definitions for computer science culture but to see how male and female students see themselves involved in computer science practices, how they see a successful career in computers, and what...
