There are many different theories about why women seem to avoid technological careers. One such theory is that women are discouraged fi-om these careers in early grade school. It is thought that women leave high school feeling that they are incapable of participating in difficult math and science careers. This is a problem society needs to address. Many people believe the education system needs to be reformed. Some think segregated classes would be the answer. Since boys and girls learn differently, they believe the best way to
