Sad to see this new report which tells us that the situation with #WomenInSTEM #womenintech is not getting better. Diversity is key to innovation. We must redouble our efforts and never stop. @reshmasaujani @pauldaugh @hadiphttps://twitter.com/codeorg/status/950786438659948544 …

Oh boy! Ok Hadi now we have talked about this before and excuse me for dipping my nose in this conversation here but Reshma is correct. Not to take away anything from the work that http://Code.org  has done but a LOT of the growth in this period

cont'd is in fact to the work done in afterschool programs such as @BlackGirlsCode, @GirlsWhoCode, @technovation and others---not just the work of http://Code.org  in schools with teachers.

I'd REALLY like to see some unbiased research done in this area because although introducing CS in schools is very important to reaching girls, those classrooms are still in most cases overly male and certainly not diverse.

Girls are also STILL marginalized in many AP CS classrooms which I know from first hand experience with my own daughter in her mostly male AP CS class here in Oakland.
