If the number of culturally and technologically proficient computer scientist, engineers or interface designers are to grow, if we are to level the playing field in computing education we will need to introduce more culturally meaningful computing education. Effective programming instruction should utilize the learner's cultural experience as an index of their prior knowledge to create a foundation for understanding. The goal of this paper is to discuss the design of a research endeavor that will create a foundation for long term and adaptive solutions to adult learners' barriers to participation in computing education and open windows of opportunity that have not existed before.
