Any author in any environment will be limited by her own experience.
Sensitive consideration of all users is the ideal but if we wait to possibly
offend no one we'll be waiting forever.
Sensitivities to comments and the ability to apologise and to "tweak" things
as we go along is the best we can hope for.
But I guess this is a very male view.

Subject: VLEs and gender issues
All,
I'm looking into gender issues and the use & development of VLEs. I
wonder if you would know any places to look into for some leads?
What I'm interested is to know if there are any recommendations for
schools and communities to deal with this, especially in school
environments? Or if you have taken any explicit action plans in this
issue?
So far, the most interesting publication that I found is "Tech-Savvy:
Educating Girls in the New Computer Age" (2000) at
http://www.aauw.org/2000/techsavvy.html
Thanks for any additional information.
Regards,
Riina Vuorikari
