Gender and technology lessons

I teach a class for K-12 teachers (inservice) on gender issues in science
education. Next week we will be discussing the topic of gender and
technology. Do any of you have any good ideas for activities that these
teachers could do to further probe this issue? The teachers are aware of
the inequities that exist in computer course-taking patterns and in use of
computers, etc. We have also discussed the relevant vignettes on the
Eisenhower Equity CD-ROM. I am looking for activities that might go beyond
the surface and really make the issue real for them.

Thanks for your assistance,
