Summary
Exposes counterproductive classroom behaviors and presents measures being taken to correct the misperception that computing is a males-only domain. Professionals in education scrutinize issues including equal computer access in the classroom, attitude barriers both in class and out, and efforts to develop software and Web sites that enfranchise female users rather than reinforce gender stereotypes.
