Funded Activity Summary

Girls and Information Communication Technology (ICT) Career Pathways: Tackling the Upper Middle School 'Turn Off'. This project aims to develop strategic responses to factors associated with girls forming such negative perceptions of Information Communication Technology during their upper middle school years that they overwhelmingly reject Information Communication Technology as an option for advanced study and future careers. This project will contribute towards Australia's National Research Priority 3 of building and transforming frontier technologies to maximize creative, technological capability by collaboratively developing a strategic model for responding to factors identified as 'turning girls off Information Communication Technology'.
