Description - Gender and Collaboration by Sandra Ingram

Gender issues in the male-dominated engineering industry are investigated in this focused analysis of three student engineering teams. The team-based teaching model common in engineering provides a particular microcosm to discuss gender as the collaborative skills of decision making and collective responsibility often manifest themselves differently in male and female engineers. The effects and advantages of women entering male-dominated industries emerge in this discussion of the characteristics of ineffective and effective teams and leadership styles.
