What I am observing is girls at least at the middle school age are a lot more focused than the boys. I think that is why they may be ahead. Does this shift some as they move into high school and college? Not sure. I guess what I am saying is don't take my original post as me advocating girls are better than boys or that we should heavily push more girls into computer programming while excluding boys. It is simply what I am seeing in multiple classes/workshops that I have taught. I think we should make it welcoming for girls but not at the cost of excluding boys. Same goes for making it welcoming for boys without excluding the girls. That is a challenging balance to find. Coming from a mom who has a boy and a girl ;)
