Title: 9th Educational Data Mining in Computer Science Education (CSEDM) Workshop
There is a growing community of researchers at the intersection- tion of data mining, AI, and computing education research. The objective of the CSEDM workshop is to facilitate a dis- Discussion among this research community, with a focus on how data mining can be uniquely applied in computing ed- ucation research. For example, what new techniques are needed to analyze program code and CS log data? How do results from CS education inform our analysis of this data? The workshop is meant to be an interdisciplinary event at the intersection of EDM and Computing Education Research. Researchers, faculty, and students are encouraged to share their AI- and data-driven approaches, methodological- gies, and experiences where data transforms how students learn Computer Science (CS) skills. This full-day workshop will feature paper presentations and discussions to promote collaboration.  more » « less

    The future of AI will be determined in part by how its developers are educated. Thus, how computer science (CS) education incorporates instruction in various aspects of AI will have a substantial impact on AI's evolution. Understanding how and what CS educators think about AI education is, therefore, an important piece of the landscape in anticipating -- and shaping -- the future of AI. However, little is known about how educators perceive the role of AI education in CS education, and there is no consensus yet regarding what AI topics should be taught to all students. This paper helps to fill that gap by presenting a qualitative analysis of data collected from high school CS instructors, higher education CS faculty, and those working in the tech industry as they reflected on their priorities for high school CS instruction and on anticipated changes in high school, college, and workplace CS. We conclude with recommendations for the CS education research community around AI in K-12, particularly at the high school level.

    Educational Data Mining in Computer Science Education (CSEDM) is an interdisciplinary research community that combines discipline-based computing education research (CER) with educational data-mining (EDM)  to advance knowledge in ways that go beyond what either research community could do on its own. The JEDM Special Issue on CSEDM received a total of 12 submissions. Each submission was reviewed by at least three reviewers, who brought expertise from both the EDM and CER communities, as well as one of special issue editors. Ultimately, three papers were accepted, for an acceptance rate of 25%.   These three papers cover a variety of important topics in CSEDM research. Edwards et al. discuss the challenges of collecting, sharing and analyzing programming data, and contribute two high-quality CS datasets. Gitinabard et al. contribute new approaches for analyzing data from pairs of students working on programs together, and show how such data can inform classroom instruction. Finally, Zhang et al. contribute a novel model for predicting students' programming performance based on their past performance. Together, these papers showcase the complexities of data, analytics and modeling in the domain of CS, and contribute to our understanding of how students learn in CS classrooms.

    Opportunities for training CS K-12 pre-service and in-service teachers, research in CS Education, and career pathways for PhDs/EdDs in CS education are happening, but often in an uncoordinated way. We advocate that now is the right time for CS and Education to collaborate on developing new joint degree programs in Computer Science Education and to explore joint faculty appointments. High undergraduate enrollment in computing programs and the increasing interest in CS courses from non-majors represent a unique opportunity for starting successful programs. As more of CS undergraduates are undergraduate TAs and see teaching and learning from a non-learner perspective, their interest in education has also increased. The growing interest in CS education, including the need for effecting CS teaching at both K-12 and the undergraduate level, provide interesting job opportunities for CS education researchers. As CS departments develop new undergraduate degree programs and scale class sizes, research on questions like How do we teach effectively computing to different audiences? How can we assess CS learning? What are culturally responsive pedagogies? is important. To answer many of these and related questions, CS departments should be actively engaged in CS Education research, from training graduate students in interdisciplinary programs to research programs. This BOF will provide a platform for the discussion on what such graduate programs – from certificate to a PhD – can and should look like, what challenges exist to creating them, and how students with different backgrounds should get trained in the relevant foundations of CS and Education.

    Background: There has been a dearth of research on intersectional identities in STEM, including the fields of computing and engineering. In computing education research, much work has been done on broadening participation, but there has been little investigation into how the field of computer science (CS) presents opportunities for students with strong intersectional identities. This study explores the strengths and connections among the unique identities and the symbiotic relationships that elementary Latina students hold in CS identity attainment. Purpose: The aim of this article is to better understand how predominantly low-income, multilingual Latina students experience identity development through the lens of diverse group membership. We examine how young Latinas, through their participation in a yearlong culturally and linguistically responsive CS curriculum, leverage their intersecting identities to rewrite the formula of what a computer scientist is and can be, leaving space to include and invite other strong identities as well. Research Design: An explanatory sequential mixed-methods design was used that analyzed data from predominantly low-income, multilingual Latinas in upper elementary grades, including pre- and post-CS identity surveys (N = 50) delivered before and after implementation of the curriculum, and eight individual semi-structured student interviews. Findings: We found that Latina students developed significantly stronger identification with the field of CS from the beginning to the end of the school year with regard to their experiences with CS, perception of themselves as computer scientists, family support for CS and school, and friend support for CS and school. Interviews revealed that perception of their CS ability greatly influenced identification with CS and that girls’ self-perceptions stemmed from their school, cultural, and home learning environments. Conclusion: Our results highlight the wealth of resources that Latinas bring to the classroom through their home- and community-based assets, which are characterized by intersecting group membership. Students did not report on the intersection between language and CS identity development, which warrants further investigation.
