Net Resources for Girls

From: Tracy Marks
Subject: For girls on the Net: Links!
To: NETTRAIN@LISTSERV.ACSU.BUFFALO.EDU

(Cross-posted to the Ed-Tech list, in response to a discussion of girls' resistance to technology...thought this list might be useful to Nettrainers teaching in the public schools - or raising their own daughters!....

Since I seem to be taking on an identity of "Link Lady" in several places on the Net, I thought I'd provide several dozen links that could be helpful in attracting girls in the 8-17 range to the Net and computers. I've been collecting these for awhile, but haven't checked them all out, so they are not recommendations...rather opportunities for exploration...
