Two high school students explore the tech industry landscape | #GHC16
by Timothy Walden | Oct 20, 2016
The tech industry is growing at a rapid pace, and it is also becoming more popular with students at the high school level.
How do these young students see themselves in the industry, and what perspectives are they taking away? The GroundTruth Project and theCUBE’s “Women in Tech” Fellowship project appointed two Junior Fellows to explore these questions and other important questions regarding technology and the gender gap.
Junior Fellows Alicia Mies and Peter Maroulis talked with Rebecca Knight (@knightrm), host of theCUBE, from the SiliconANGLE Media team, during the Grace Hopper Celebration of Women in Computing about journalism and women in computing.
On the ground
It’s not often that technology conferences are frequented by high school students. However, when they do, it can lead to a variety of new perspectives. At The Grace Hopper Celebration of Women in Computing, in particular, Mies and Maroulis were able to see “a unified goal of more women in tech,” said Mies.
There are several disparities in the tech industry, but these fellows were able to see that there is also progress being made. More companies are hiring women and “everything is moving in the right direction,” according to Maroulis.
Journalism and tech
Both Mies and Maroulis were canvassing the event for journalistic purposes, and they found plenty of material to cover. However the art of print journalism itself “has a limited number of days,” said Maroulis.
Instead, they’re finding ways to engage the community with technology. They’re hoping to use online methods to reach people throughout the world in a more timely way. Journalism may be changing forms, but technology will guarantee its overall survival and propagation, according to Mies and Maroulis.
