Stuck in the shallow end

education, race, and computing

"[Argues that] the race gap in computer science ... is one example of the way students of color are denied a wide range of occupational and educational futures. Margolis traces the interplay of school structures (such factors as course offerings and student-to-counselor ratios) and belief systems -- including teachers' assumptions about their students and students' assumptions about themselves [to show] how inequality is reproduced in America -- and how students and teachers, given the necessary tools, can change the system"--Provided by publisher.
