Read Course outline here.
Perceived Diversity in Software Engineering: A Systematic Literature Review
Gema Rodriguez-Perez, Reza Nadri, Meiyappan Nagappan
Week 2 (May 18): No Class
No papers this week (Due to MSR 2021). There is a relevant Keynote the day before on "Decolonizing your Data. A simple guide to identifying and remediating age old biases in your data lakes" by Leslie Miley. I will try and get you access to it.
Spend time on selecting a team, coming up with ideas and deciding which paper you want to be the discussion lead for.
I will post the sign up link for the paper you want to be the discussion lead for here.
