Publications

At the bottom of this page is the pre-print of an article I co-authored in Computer Science Education with Yihong Cheng, “Maintaining pluralism when embedding computational thinking in required science and engineering classes with young adolescents“.

Also, in the spirit of my dissertation defense being “public”, I have uploaded my slideshow and an audio recording of the defense. The manuscript should be available soon on ProQuest.

Three other articles are available free of charge, at their respective sites:
