Defining & Identifying A Discourse Community

The goals of a Computer Science Majors are to be able to apply problem solving skills to formalize general problem statements into precise algorithmic solutions. In this discourse community these scientists need to demonstrate an understanding of the interplay between theory and practice.

In the field of Computer Science there are many different types of genres, but a best way to explain a type of genres would be comments in the code. Writing these comments within the programs can help in identifying what is happening at that part of the code and also helps the programmes acknowledge what type of programming language is being used as each language is unique on its own. 

Lexis is defined as key works of the discoures community.

• Binary: 0's and 1's

• int: Interger

• str: String

• bool: True/False

• var: Variable

There are many ways to communicate in a Computer Science Discourse Community.

• Github

• Discord

• Microsoft Teams

• SourseForge

• LanchPad

• Google Cloud Platform

The participatory mechanisms in the women in STEM discourse community are:

• mutual engagement

• Shared repertoire

• Collaboration

• Shared values

• Feedback

• Socialization

• Women in STEM face unique challenges and hardships 

• Addressing issues like bias, work-life balance, and mentorship is crucial for gender equality in STEM 

• Promoting gender equality is essential to building a diverse and inclusive STEM community.
