Bio/Research

Joanna Goode is an academic expert in STEM, and equity, access and inclusion in education. At the University of Oregon, she is a professor in the College of Education and the Director of the Oregon Educational Science Laboratory. Her research examines how K-12 and higher education educational policies and practices have created systemic racial inequities in terms of institutional encouragement, distribution of resources, and learning opportunities that are culturally relevant and support students’ learning about computer science. Based upon research findings detailed in “Stuck in the Shallow End: Education, Race, & Computing,” along with her experience as an urban high school teacher, Goode co-created the equity-focused Exploring Computer Science high school course, a prominent, evidence-based curriculum and professional development that reaches tens of thousands of students across the United States and Puerto Rico each year. Goode has provided expert testimony and briefings to federal and state legislative committees, has directed numerous National Science Foundation-sponsored research projects focused on broadening participation in computing, and is a committee member on the National Academy of Science’s “The Role of Authentic STEM Learning Experiences in Developing Interest and Competencies for Technology and Computing”.
