Such experiments have been conducted due to the poor performance of girls in subjects related to computer science. According to statistics only 17 percent of British women have higher education in specialties related to computers. High school students, which were 12 - 13 years old, were attended in the experiment for 64 days. Their task was to create a simple 3d game.
Girls’ results exceeded results of boys by almost two times. The scientists also noted that representatives of girls have tried to create more complex scenarios as opposed to boys.
OK, they can do it better, but may be they do not want to do games in real life or someone creates restrictions to them? The scientists have not answered these questions yet. So the next time when girls join your team, please do not hurry to blame her, you should give her the opportunity to show themselves, perhaps your team's success will depend exactly on them ;)
MyTeamVoice support the position of equality of opportunity in self-realization and we are ardent opponent of stereotypes - the team results are the most important thing.
Use every opportunity to become the first! (Within the law of course).
