Gender, Language and CMC for Education.

Yates, S. J.

Learning and Instruction, v11 n1 p21-34 Feb 2001

Reviews research into the role of gender in computer-mediated communication (CMC) interactions. Criticizes the frequent claim that CMC is free of gender-based inequalities because of the lack of face-to-face cues and emphasizes the important role of social context in providing and limiting opportunities for instructional interactions.
