This presentation provides an overview of the similar principles and shared tenets of the UN Security Council’s WPS Agenda and those established by the collective of 193 UN Member States in the General Assembly on Women, Disarmament, Non-Proliferation, and Arms Control. The author argues that applying a gender lens to recruitment, participation, promotion, leadership inclusiveness, and education may correct the noticeable gender imbalance in disarmament, non-proliferation, and arms control, where women are underrepresented at all levels.

The Proof Is In The Pudding – Using Perceived Stress To Measure Short-Term Impact In Initiatives To Enhance Gender Balance In Computing Education, Alina Berry, Sarah Jane Delany

Academic Posters Collection

The problem of gender imbalance in computing higher education has forced academics and professionals to implement a wide range of initiatives. Many initiatives use recruitment or retention numbers as their most obvious evidence of impact. This type of evidence of impact is, however, more resource heavy to obtain, as well as often requires a longitudinal approach. There are many shorter term initiatives that use other ways to measure their success.

First, this poster presents with a review of existing evaluation measures in interventions to recruit and retain women in computing education across the board. Three main groups of evaluation come …

Listen To Her Heart: Bridging The Gap In Recognizing, Preventing, & Treating Ascvd In Women, Stephen J. Foley

Family Medicine Clerkship Student Projects

Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) is traditionally considered a male disease, yet it is the leading cause of death in women. This may be associated with the significant lack of research of ASCVD in women, leading to poor recognition, diagnosis, prevention, and treatment. The American Heart Association reports that a majority of women experience prodromal symptoms more than one month before a heart attack or stroke, and these symptoms are often underestimated. This project intends to help address the question: How can earlier detection of ASCVD risk in women reduce missed signs of acute myocardial infarction/stroke and thereby reduce preventable ASCVD …

Tangled Roots: Exploring Appalachian Feminisms, Magenta Palo

Graduate Thesis Exhibition Catalogue Gallery, 2022

Women have long been overlooked as key figures in the cultural history of Appalachia. The exhibition Tangled Roots: Exploring Appalachian Feminisms seeks to examine the ways in which women artists across the region have kept traditions alive while redefining creative practices that were once seen strictly as “women’s work.” In particular, the exhibition aims to explore how women have reimagined “craft” through skillful attention to materials, manual dexterity, and application of critical and conceptual rigor. The concept of craft is defined in this context to include all hand-made work that requires developed skills, whether they belong to traditional craft-based practices …

In Their Own Words: Forgotten Women Pilots Of Early Aviation, Fred Erisman

Purdue Studies in Aeronautics and Astronautics

Amelia Earhart’s prominence in American aviation during the 1930s obscures a crucial point: she was but one of a closely knit community of women pilots. Although the women were well known in the profession and widely publicized in the press at the time, they are largely overlooked today. Like Earhart, they wrote extensively about aviation and women’s causes, producing an absorbing record of the life of women fliers during the emergence and peak of the Golden Age of Aviation (1925–1940). Earhart and her contemporaries, however, were only the most recent in a long line of women pilots whose activities reached …

Women In Computer Science, Jorge Aguilar-Flores

As a minority in computer science, this investigation has been very personal to me because it has allowed me to learn more about some of the institutional oppressors that have been adopted over time to further marginalize minority populations and allow a certain demographic to flourish. As you may have learned from our previous discussions and …

Decreasing The Threat To Learning: The Impact Of Gender Ratio In Clinical Skills Small Groups, A. Schoenberger, Ba, Msed, H. Christensen, Phd, S. Overlam Ms

Sex and Gender Health Education Summit 2020 – Virtual Meeting

Background & Objective: Small-group learning is a popular fundamental teaching strategy in undergraduate medical education (UME). Evidence of women acting as “social vaccines” for their women peers in small groups has been described in engineering, but not in UME. We seek to better understand the impact of smallgroup gender composition on medical student learning.

Methods: Preclinical medical students were surveyed throughout their clinical skills (CS) course. Likert-scale questions measured students’ perception of their simulation encounters as challenging or threatening, and data were used to calculate a challenge-to-threat ratio (CTR). Scores >1 indicated a situation more challenging than threatening, whilesurvey.
