Finds documents with exactly this word group, in exactly this word order and spelling (e.g. "employer branding").
Finds documents with both search terms (e.g. sales AND bonus).
Finds documents with one or the other search term (e.g. porsche OR volkswagen).
Finds documents with all search terms. Blank space is understood as AND (e.g. man robot production).
Finds documents with no appearance of the word behind NOT (e.g. ford NOT "harrison ford").
Finds documents where the search term is mentioned at least "n" times."n" may be any number (e.g. COUNT(gear)>8).
Finds documents with both search terms in any word order, permitting "n" words as a maximum distance between them. Best choose between 15 and 30 (e.g. NEAR(recruit, professionals, 20)).
Finds documents with the search term in word versions or composites. The asterisk * marks whether you wish them BEFORE, BEHIND, or BEFORE and BEHIND the search term (e.g. lightweight*, *lightweight, *lightweight*).
Finds documents with the search term in different spellings. "?" allows only one character (e.g. organi?ation).
Special characters are understood as AND (e.g. Miller Bros. & Sons).

Abstract

The article delves into the current state of computer science (CS) education in high schools, focusing on the experiences and motivations of students. It discusses the importance of CS education for future job markets and the need for diverse representation. The study identifies key factors influencing students' decisions to continue or discontinue CS courses, including gender differences and the role of teachers and curriculum. The research is based on a mixed-method approach, combining quantitative data from a survey of over 600 high school students with qualitative insights from their responses. The findings highlight the critical need to create more positive and inclusive learning environments to encourage continued participation in CS.
