Technological Futures: Gendered Visions of Learning?
Leathwood, Carole
Research in Post-Compulsory Education, v4 n1 p5-22 1999
Analysis of discourses on communications and information technology in education reveals the notable omission of explicit reference to gender, despite existing research and theory. This view of technology also draws on masculinist ways of learning and student autonomy. These discourses narrow the opportunities offered by technological development. (SK)
