Project

Toward Using Virtual Identities in Computer Science Learning for Broadening Participation

Imagination, Computation, and Expression Laboratory (ICE Lab)
Our research seeks to discover best practices for using avatars to enhance performance, engagement, and STEM identity development for diverse public middle and high school computer science students. As sites of our research we run workshops in which students learn computer science in fun, relevant ways, and develop self-images as computer scientists.
