by, for, and about women in science, technology, engineering, & math

I’m spending a few days at my parents’ microfarm this week, so just a few links before I go back outside to play with chickens in this beautiful weather:

• The NIH has released some free “Women are Scientists” videos profiling successful female scientists

• A Skepchick reader blogs about his experience seeing a young woman gain interest and skills in science thanks in part to strong female role models in the lab

• The ACM posts about intelligent tutoring systems that could change their strategies based on a student’s mood

• A discussion at Geek Feminism on whether hiring based on applicants’ previous open-source experience is inherently, if inadvertently, sexist

As always — if you’ve read something interesting lately, link it in the comments or create your own post! (If you’re read something cool offline, book reviews are welcome too…)
