This led me to my question. I wonder what diversity is like on the other side, among the faculty who offer MOOCs? And I offer my story of how I stayed in STEM as an example of why I think it matters. My first Computer Science teacher was a woman. She watched out for me and the other one or two women in the class. I remember that she encouraged me, took time to talk to me beyond the content of the classroom… and so I stayed for two years in a classroom with over 25 14-16 year old boys. (I think this deserves a OBE).
In 2013, our courses will be held from March 4th to 8th at the Faculty Club, Leuven, Belgium, and at the Science Gallery, Dublin, Ireland, from July 15th to 19th. Registration is now open for the Leuven event.
secappdev.org is a non-profit organization that aims to broaden security awareness in the development community and advance secure software engineering practices. We run the SecAppDev series of courses.
