Increasing Students' Persistence in Computer Science through a Lightweight Scalable Intervention

PROCEEDINGS OF THE 27TH ACM CONFERENCE ON INNOVATION AND TECHNOLOGY IN COMPUTER SCIENCE EDUCATION, ITICSE 2022, VOL 1, pp. 526–532.

By: B. Akram n, S. Fisk *, S. Yoder  n, C. Hunt *, T. Price n , L. Battestilli n , T. Barnes n

author keywords: Positive Feedback; Introductory Computer Science; Persistence in Computing; Self-Assessment of Computing Ability
TL;DR: This study investigates the effect of a lightweight, scalable intervention where students received personalized, contextualized feedback from their instructors after two major assignments during the semester, and demonstrates that providing students' sense of belonging, professional role confidence, and the likelihood of stating an intention to pursue a major in computer science are improved.
