| summary |
This paper discusses the ongoing lack of gender equity in architecture - specifically the shortfall of women in design technology - and presents a robotics workshop in the United States as a case study and method to challenge this inequality. The goals of this paper are to 1.) define a research agenda for documenting and understanding gender equity in design technology and 2.) to offer evidence-based strategies from STEM education and this architecture case study for improving the representation of women in this field. |
