Summary:

"This book highlights the issues, perspectives, and challenges faced in P-16 environments (i.e. gender and racial imbalances of students in CS classes; population of growing CS teachers who are predominantly white and male; what and who are the high-school gate keepers of CS courses; teacher preparation or lack of faculty expertise; professional development programs; and college admission criteria for CS programs) while exploring the challenges and policies that are created to limit access, and thus, reinforce systems of power and privilege"-- Provided by publisher.
