Do any other girls do Software Design and Development? (1 Viewer)

[gingyangel]

Just looked it up for this years SDD exam, 175 females and 1658 males... so total of 1833... Therefore 10% for 2008!! lol

wow, that's a small amount of females....

I'm a girl love the subject...wish more girls would do it!!! Unfortunately girls are not interested....By the way I have been teaching the subject since it started in 2001...Have been trying to push more girls to do it!!! But love teaching the boys..have one girl this year in Yr 11...previously no girls....Ex students have stated the subject helped them with courses they were doing at Uni...

I'm the only female in a Software Design and Development class of about 12 students.

It's no big deal, it's cool to be just one of the guys for a lesson each day.

I was more worried about being an amateur in a room full of gun programmers than a girl in a room full of boys, but I didn't turn out to be the only one with minimal programming experience anyway, so I'm having a great time with it.
