Description:
Princeton University professor, Maria Klawe, explores how girls and women differ from boys and men in their uses of, and attitudes towards, computers and computing. From playing computer games to pursuing computing careers, the participation of females in the computer sciences tends to be very low compared to that of males. Klawe discusses research findings on this issue and initiatives designed to increase the participation of females in computing.
