While teaching students to code is a valuable skill, we need to consider the equity implications of such instruction. Computer programming is a highly stereotyped activity, and as such can negatively impact a student’s sense of chemistry identity. This is likely to be especially acute for students from historically excluded groups. Recommendations for coding instruction that will support a student’s sense of chemistry identity are given. These include using pedagogies that encourage student interaction (Live Coding, spending class time for introductory instruction), differentiating by prior knowledge, and knowing how computer scientists talk about coding. By using pedagogies that increase student’s chemistry identity during programming instruction, we can help all of our students see that they belong in our field.
