Last night I read another article and began reading my new book. The article was titled New Image of Computing. The study was published by the WGBH Educational Foundation and the Association for Computing Machinery. In this study, researchers looked at the attitudes of students toward careers in computing. One of the things they found was that Hispanic and African American males were very interested in these fields, however they do not see this interest translate into academia or the workplace. I found this to be very interesting. There was indeed a difference in the attitudes with respect to gender. The question was asked why the enthusiasm does not translate? Perhaps that is a way to look at this question. What is the difference? What happens to young Black and Hispanic males after high school that results in their absence in the computing fields in academia or the workplace? I also began reading The Information Society and the Black Community by John T. Barber and Alice A. Trait. The best thing about this book is that it provides me with a wealth of references as well as introduced a theoretical framework.
