Abstract

The study presented in this paper explores characteristics of creativity and the question whether creativity forms a possible pathway into the field of Computer Science (CS). For this purpose, we analyze computing experiences of students majoring in CS and Bioinformatics. The study is part of two research projects exploring creativity in CS Education and students' pathways to CS. Copyright 2008 ACM.
