It is equally valuable to examine potential motivations for thesepapers to simply mention Asian American students and what goal(s) these quick mentions serve.It is interesting to see that quite a few of these papers often address concerns of other minoritystudents, such as Latinx students or African American students, while at the same time equatingAsian students with white students. This again plays into the model minority myth, whichwrongly places Asians as the “standard” for what minorities “should” strive for [7] [8] [9][10]. At least 18 papers include language in their abstracts which equate Asian and whitestudents, thus contradicting the claims in other papers which cite Asian Americans as a minoritygroup. While

implementingpedagogical strategies for differentiation, instructors can provide students with the support theyneed to succeed in introductory programming courses. While these practices are not novel, wenoted during our workshop that these strategies are effective in improving student engagementand learning outcomes. By adapting these practices to resource-constrained institutions, we canhelp realize a broader and inclusive computing community of learners.References [1] Y. Qian and J.
