ABSTRACT
The computing education community is growing, but there is little information about the geographic distribution of the community or collaboration between members. Our research investigates three computer science education conferences (SIGCSE Technical Symposium, ITiCSE and ICER) by analysing authorship and affiliation details for publications in the proceedings over the lifetime of the respective conferences, totalling over 4500 publications. We examine the geographic location of authors and model the scientific collaboration network of each conference. We conclude that the community is open to newcomers, and both the number of authors, and the overall level of collaboration is growing.
