Gender bias is considered the biggest contributor to gender stereotypes and social inequalities. To avoid this type of bias, it is necessary that future developers of algorithms be aware of its existence. This work describes an experience carried out to make Computer Science undergraduates aware of the gender biases of algorithms and the consequences they can have. The results reveal that the main objective has been raised. From the gender segregation of the data collected, previous findings are also confirmed: the need for gender analysis in science, and the greater awareness of girls of the need to address the gender gap in Computer Science studies. © 2023, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.Item type:Publication, The rise of citational justice: how scholars are making references fairer Open PDF(Nature Publishing Group, 2022)Kwon, DianaAn emerging movement aims to push researchers to pay more heed to inequities in scholarly citations.Item type:Publication, (In)citing Action to Realize an Equitable Future Open PDF(2020) ;Dworkin, Jordan ;Zurn, PerryBassett, Danielle S.Reference lists of neuroscience articles show marked gender imbalances. To mitigate this disparity, we discuss relevant ethical considerations and offer practical recommendations to scientists of all ages. We envision an equitable future by all scientists for all scientists.
