82 Step 8: Prep for Inclusivity “We need to ask students which are the problems they want to solve and we, educators, have to make sure we create the spaces for them do it.” - Rafranz Davis, Executive Director of Professional and Digital Learning for Lufkin ISD GO TO STEP:
83 Step 8: Prep for Inclusivity DIVERSITY Another crucial consideration for your program is how to foster a culture of inclusivity for all genders and ethnicities. Since the 1950s, maker toys like robotics kits and remote-control cars have been traditionally marketed toward boys. Be intentional about providing counterexamples to help your students understand that anyone can be a maker, scientist, engineer or technologist. Here are a few ways you can support diversity and inclusivity in your program: • • • • Choose gender-neutral activities. Particularly for younger learners, selecting activities that don’t easily fall into “for boys” or “for girls” categories will encourage full engagement from participants of both genders. Include women and people of color as mentors or speakers in your program whenever possible. Be intentional in your choice of activities. Share stories of diverse makers from a variety of backgrounds. People you might feature include: • • • • • • • • • • • • • Mae Jemision, the first African-American woman in space Marissa Mayer, President & CEO of Yahoo Ime Archibong, Manager of Strategic Partnerships at Facebook Reshma Saujani, Founder of Girls Who Code Luis Von Ahn, CEO & Co-Founder of Duolingo Megan Smith, Chief Technology Officer of the United States Timothy Campos, Chief Information Officer at Facebook Carolina Huaranca, Entrepreneur in Residence @KaporCSI Malik Ducard, Director of Content Partnerships at Youtube Ann Wojcicki, Co-Founder & CEO of 23andMe Lixia Zhang, Profession of Computer Science at UCLA Erica Joy Baker, Senior Engineer at Slack Cynthia Breazeal, Co-Director of the Center for Future Storytelling at MIT DIVERSITY DOES NOT HAPPEN BY ACCIDENT http://autode.sk/ NotByAccident BRIDGING THE GAP BETWEEN GIRLS AND STEM http://autode.sk/ GirlsAndSTEM MAKING INCLUSIVITY Meaningful Making, page 50 http://autode.sk/ MakingInclusivity COMPUTER SCIENCE WOMEN’S NETWORK https://www.cs.purdue. edu/cswn/ GO TO STEP:
