“…In particular, the CPI platform is an online platform that teaches computer programming and other STEM+C skills to middle and high school students by curating relevant content that is developmentally appropriate and interesting. 21 The platform delivers individualized learning possibilities for students who have traditionally had fewer options leading to careers in computer science by delivering curated content aligned with learners' interests. The benefits of CPI are described in further detail in the sections that follow.…”

“…CPI pedagogy is based on the notion of "learn by doing." 21 As students engage with CPI, they are guided through three levels: Awareness, Cultivating Interest, and Preparation. Awareness activities are focused on engagement and exposing students to STEM+C careers and may include videos of diverse role models speaking about their career choices, and infographics about opportunities and salaries for individuals from underserved groups in STEM+C.…”

There is a growing interest in developing students' interest in computer science and computational thinking as computing has become ubiquitous in various fields. This has led to a plethora of online educational platforms offering computer science content for learning. There are several advantages and disadvantages of existing platforms. To address the current limitation of both the paid and free online learning activities, we present the Curated Pathways to Innovation (CPI), an innovative platform that utilizes machine learning techniques to curate and personalize readily available computational learning material online. Initial results suggest that students benefit from using CPI. Not only are students exposed to developmentally appropriate and personally salient computer science-related content aligned with educational standards, but they also experience a significant increase in their attitudes towards computer science activities, particularly those involving computer programming and computational thinking. In this way, CPI is highly scalable, having the potential to reach a broad audience of learners by curating content from an integrated set of educational resources and thus also orienting a future generation of students towards careers in computer science and related fields. The strengths of this approach, as well as opportunities for future platform, content, and curriculum development, are considered.

Ambientes digitais que incentivam e estimulam o engajamento das mulheres na área de Tecnologia da Informação, podem ser uma solução eficaz para enfrentar os desafios de representatividade de gênero. Diante disso, este trabalho tem como objetivo apresentar os resultados da Revisão Sistemática da Literatura sobre ambiente digital representativos para mulheres na área tecnológica, aplicando gamificação e metodologias de UX Design, a fim de promover sua inclusão e desenvolvimento. Como resultado, 8 (oito) estudos foram classificados para responder às questões da pesquisa e mostraram que ainda existem lacunas sobre a criação de ambientes digitais que incentivem a participação feminina na tecnologia, aliados à gamificação e UX Design.
