Tartalmi leírás:
The IT sector has been rapidly growing; in fact, a high number of jobs are expected toremain unfilled, which makes it our common interest to attract more students to this field. The strikingscarcity of women in the IT sector offers an obvious solution: if more women could be involved, thelabor shortage in IT could be fixed. The low number of women in IT has strong ties with ITeducation; therefore, the role and responsibility of teachers is immense. If we want to have moreworkforce and more competent professionals in the IT sector, educators need to create a morehospitable environment for girls and women in (both secondary and tertiary) education. The presentstudy aims to show why it is key to introduce the gender aspect into IT education, both globally andspecifically in Hungary. The primary goal of the article, thus, is to call attention to the repercussions ofentrenched gender stereotypes in education, while also offering specific methods that can make IT-related classes more inclusive.
