Truly innovative leaders are "continually earning the right to be leaders." - @sw #TechInclusion
We're about to go on now! @coryannj, @dlazzopardi & me on #intersectionality and inclusion in tech! #Techinclusionpic.twitter.com/VOgq3RQGMW
Developing an inclusive tech pipeline. Host @marian_zizzo. Panellists: @_shonamc_, @vanessadoake, Hope Perkins, & @waynedenning on education. #Techinclusionpic.twitter.com/Gh7hzP4mfT
Minorities are very interested in STEM. But too much focus is on consumers, not on being creators. The problem is the language and how it's sold, especially to Aboriginal children who aren't made aware that there are opportunities. - @waynedenning #TechInclusion
Valuing STEM teachers is important in engaging young children in STEM education and careers. - Hope Perkins, @unimelb Melbourne School of Engineering #Indigenous Engagement. #Techinclusion
Problem: lack of trust despite good intentions. What is going to be different, make meaningful change? Many schools have had bad experiences with "do gooders... eho swan in" and don't make positive change. Make tech learning & skills more relevant. - Hope Perkins #Techinclusion
Drone technology was useful for getting Aboriginal girls interested in tech. Drone tech allowed them to explore koalas and other animals and Country. They learned maths and other engineering skills in a way that resonated with their interests. - Hope Perkins. #Techinclusion
Using positive stories & social media helps connect with Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander children. Mainstream stories leave them out and underestimate them. Need to work with parents & make tech more relatable. E.g. ranger tracking or football. @waynedenning #TechInclusion
