Who’s Learning Code? Exploring Equity in Computer Science
From Classroom to Community:
Bridging Computer Science Divides
This chart displays participation rates in elementary computer science courses for different racial and ethnic groups. In elementary school, computer science is often woven into other subjects, so data collection does not come solely from specific computer science courses but also relies on data gathered from integrated courses that involve coding or robotics-related content.
Have You Noticed?
29% of elementary students nationally are Hispanic/Latino, and only 21% are enrolled in foundational computer science courses. This under-enrollment suggests that Hispanic/Latino students are less likely to participate in these courses. Potential reasons may include cultural influences, socioeconomic challenges, or language barriers.
