Abstract

The longstanding underrepresentation and attrition of minoritized racial and ethnic groups and women in computing courses, majors, and careers continues to plague researchers, educators, and policymakers alike. Informed by Sue and colleague’s microaggression framework and Rowe's microaffirmation framework, this study theorizes identity-related factors that undermine and support efforts to increase the representation and meaningful participation of minoritized racial and ethnic groups and women in computing education. We conclude with implications for teaching practices to advance equity, inclusion, and justice in computing education.

Keyphrases: STEM equity, computing education, microaffirmations, microaggressions, unconscious bias
