Did you know that computer programming in the 1950s and 1960s was considered administrative work, and therefore best suited for women? Hacking the Gender Gap is an interactive workshop in which we explore the gender ratio in tech fields, unpack the associations our culture has created between gender and technical ability, and share experiences of gender and technology. This workshop has been presented to a number of audiences of different genders and technical ability, and always results in a stimulating and illuminating discussion.
