rdw-41702 This video was a quality presentation that can keep the viewers attention. The format of multiple speakers and settings was insightful. The historical content that is presented was very surprising. I am in the male dominate automotive repair field and observe biases similar to these as far as women being automotive technicians. This video showed areas that our society can improve with positive impact.
biancardh This film helped explain the gap in the coding industry that I was unaware of. Coding is such an important part in the world today and will benefit from an increase in knowledge and pursuance from both male and females. I feel women have the opportunity in this field but can be presented with bias and challenges while on the job. With experiencing this, it can affect the number of women present in the field. I hope the word of computer science gets out more and even more women can reconsider this career that had declined with female workers in the past.
ydmo This documentary is very empowering and makes you think about the opportunities women have. Women have amazing opportunities in the world and being a coder can open up even more doors to the future. Many of the women in the film aren't heard of as much as the men and if these women were to speak up more and make themselves noticeable in such careers, it can spike the interest of other women to join the work force and be involved in the coding world. really gets you thinking at to what other things women are actually part of and the rest of the world has no idea.
cb-02850 This film should be mandatory viewing at the earliest possible moment in junior high education. It should also be critiqued and critically written about at the high school level. Upon entry into a college setting that should be one of the first mandatory classes for freshman entering into the collegiate setting. This may seem excessive but I believe it to be one of the more important issues for developing young people. The idea of teaching young people appropriate behaviors is not new. But the idea that such a promising job field, which is critical to all developing nations, can be corrupted and brought low simply by lowbrow, idiot behavior is simply to important to ignore.
