Supporting and Increasing Girls Studying Computing
Presented by
Michelle Chomiak
Are you striving to make computing classrooms more inclusive and diverse?
This presentation delves into practical strategies to support and encourage more girls to pursue studies in computing.
Drawing on the latest findings from international research, we’ll explore actionable recommendations that educators can implement to foster inclusivity and challenge stereotypes. We will also use local WACE exam data to examine gender participation in computing subjects in WA.
By blending global insights with local context, this session equips you with evidence-based approaches to inspire change and support the next generation of female computing professionals
