Susan Sentance is a British computer scientist, educator and director of the Raspberry Pi Foundation Computing Education Research Centre at the University of Cambridge.[4][5][1][6][7] Her research investigates a wide range of issues computer science education, teacher education and the professional development of those teaching computing.[8][2] In 2020 Sentance was awarded a Suffrage Science award for her work on computing education.[9][10]

Early life and education

Sentance studied artificial intelligence (AI) and information technology (IT) at the University of Edinburgh[10] where she was awarded a Master of Science degree in 1989[11] followed by a PhD in 1993 investigating intelligent computer-assisted language learning (ICALL) supervised by Helen Pain and Elisabet Engdahl.[3]

Career and research

In 2014 Sentance joined King's College London as a lecturer in computing education. Sentance served on the Royal Society computing education advisory group in 2016, with whom she investigated computer science education in the United Kingdom.[12] Sentance was involved with the evaluation of .NET Gadgeteer and the Micro Bit.[13][14]

Sentance joined the Raspberry Pi Foundation in 2018 as Chief Learning Officer where she oversees a gender disparity in computing program that seeks to improve the representation of girls in computer science classes. She has served on the board of Computing at School (CAS).[15][16] Her research has been funded by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) and Microsoft.[17] She collaborates with the National Centre for Computing Education (NCCE)[18] and joined the Department of Computer Science and Technology, University of Cambridge in 2021.[4]

With Erik Barendsen and Carsten Schulte, she edited the book Computer Science Education: Perspectives on Teaching and Learning in School.[19]
