ISEN-ASTC-L is a service of the Association of Science-Technology Centers
Incorporated, a worldwide network of science museums and related institutions.
*****************************************************************************

Here are some other good resources for information about teaching
engineering to girls.  They are a little more on the research and policy
side, but there are some good program examples as well.

Science, Gender, and Afterschool (http://www.afterschool.org/sga/) -
Community of practice

Extraordinary Women Engineers (http://www.engineeringwomen.org/) - Research
about how girls think about engineering

Design Squad (http://pbskids.org/designsquad/) - If you are planning a
program in the spring, you should contact the folks at Design Squad.  They
have developed an event guide connected to the new PBS show.  They are also
working on an educators' guide.
