About
Marguerite Doman is a dedicated educator and researcher in computer science education, with a primary focus on broadening participation in computing through informal learning environments. Her most significant contribution lies in the design and implementation of non-residential summer computing camps for 4th through 12th grade students, a model she has refined since 2004 at Georgia Tech. Her seminal work, "How to Plan and Run Summer Computing Camps," details a financially self-sustaining and highly effective approach that integrates engaging, hands-on activities like CS Unplugged to make computing accessible and fun. While her citation count is modest, the real impact of her work is measured in the thousands of young students inspired to explore computing, many from underrepresented groups. Doman’s practical, scalable camp framework has been adopted by other institutions, making her a key figure in the movement to democratize computer science education and build a more diverse pipeline of future technologists.
