26. C U S E C 2 0 1 7 T R AC Y O S B O R N @limedaring In the bigger picture…
27. C U S E C 2 0 1 7 T R AC Y O S B O R N @limedaring In the 1984-1985 academic year, women accounted for nearly 37% of all computer science undergraduate students…
28. C U S E C 2 0 1 7 T R AC Y O S B O R N @limedaring In the 1984-1985 academic year, women accounted for nearly 37% of all computer science undergraduate students… and as of 2010-2011, women made up just 17.6% of computer science students. http://www.computerscience.org/resources/women-in-computer-science/
29. C U S E C 2 0 1 7 T R AC Y O S B O R N @limedaring Furthermore, the percentage of women working in computer science-related professions has steadily declined since the 1990s, dropping from 35% to 25% in the last 15 years. http://www.computerscience.org/resources/women-in-computer-science/
30. C U S E C 2 0 1 7 T R AC Y O S B O R N @limedaring The University of California at Berkeley experienced a revolution in their introductory computer science classes after changing how they marketed the course. What used to be known as Introduction to Symbolic Programming is now called The Beauty and the Joy of Computing.
31. C U S E C 2 0 1 7 T R AC Y O S B O R N @limedaring The University of California at Berkeley experienced a revolution in their introductory computer science classes after changing how they marketed the course. What used to be known as Introduction to Symbolic Programming is now called The Beauty and the Joy of Computing. The result? For the first time in 2014, women in the class outnumbered men. http://www.computerscience.org/resources/women-in-computer-science/

35. C U S E C 2 0 1 7 T R AC Y O S B O R N @limedaring It’s like saying that there are only two kinds of people when it comes to swimming, those that can learn how to swim and those that can’t. http://jacquesmattheij.com/the-no-true-programmer-fallacy

 before acting like you are an authority.
70. C U S E C 2 0 1 7 T R AC Y O S B O R N @limedaring Level up your skills more 
 before acting like you are an authority. Also, if you are going to have a book for designers, consider showing more attractive web pages inside.

90. C U S E C 2 0 1 7 T R AC Y O S B O R N @limedaring What can we do better?

93. C U S E C 2 0 1 7 T R AC Y O S B O R N @limedaring Reject the “one true programmer” Embrace the mediocre programmer. (h/t Jacob Kaplan-Moss)
94. C U S E C 2 0 1 7 T R AC Y O S B O R N @limedaring
95. C U S E C 2 0 1 7 T R AC Y O S B O R N @limedaring Reject the “one true programmer” Embrace the mediocre programmer. (h/t Jacob Kaplan-Moss) More specificity at conferences, events, and courses when it comes to complexity of material.
96. C U S E C 2 0 1 7 T R AC Y O S B O R N @limedaring “Beginner” “Intermediate” and “Advanced”
97. C U S E C 2 0 1 7 T R AC Y O S B O R N @limedaring “Beginner” “Intermediate” and “Advanced” Beginner + Deployment Beginner + Web Apps Intermediate + Data Science
98. C U S E C 2 0 1 7 T R AC Y O S B O R N @limedaring Reject the “one true programmer” Embrace the mediocre programmer. (h/t Jacob Kaplan-Moss) More specificity at conferences, events, and courses when it comes to complexity of material. Build more tutorials and guides aimed at niches.
99. C U S E C 2 0 1 7 T R AC Y O S B O R N @limedaring Programming for engineers. Programming for artists. Programming for writers. Programming for people who want to build a startup.
100. C U S E C 2 0 1 7 T R AC Y O S B O R N @limedaring You can teach even if you feel like a “beginner”!
