Abstract

Women are severely underrepresented in the field of computer science. Already in school gender differences in CS, especially in programming, are observable. To face this, we surveyed 63 computer science teachers on their experiences regarding these differences between female and male students. The results of the survey were matched with findings from recent literature. We identified that teachers have only a limited perspective on the inuences of gender on programming. Based on this results we are planning an intervention for computer science teachers.
