Creating a wiki about Computer Engineering History through its women

Abstract

This document describes an activity developed with students of the Computer Engineering Degree. Among the objectives of this experience are: collaborative work, autonomous learning and awareness of the lack of visibility of women in the history of computer science. To this end, students have built a wiki in groups on the History of Computer Science with a focus on women who have excelled in it. As the results obtained show, there is a general lack of knowledge about the role of women in the History of Computer Science among the students of the Computer Engineering Degree. The activity developed has not only made the students aware of this problem, but has also provided them with an autonomous and collaborative approach to acquire the knowledge and competences established in the subject.
