Boys are more likely to enroll in advanced computer science and graphics courses.
School software programs often reinforce gender bias and stereotypical gender roles. Girls consistently rate themselves significantly lower than boys on computer ability, and boys exhibit higher self-confidence and a more positive attitude about computers than do girls. Girls use computers less often outside of school. Boys enter the classroom with more prior experience with computers and other technology than girls.
