Group Projects May Attract Women
Dear friends of women in science,
On NPR, Laura Santhanam discussed a new study published March 18, 2015 in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences with lead author Nilanjana Dasgupta, entitled "Female Peers in Small Work Groups Enhance Women's Motivation, Verbal Participation, and Career Aspirations in Engineering."
As we've discussed, engineering continues to be a field underpopulated by women in spite of efforts by many. According to Santhanam's discussion, the study shows that small group composition is important in whether or not small group work is effective for women. When women make up the majority of a group, they are likely to "worry less, feel confident and also to speak up and actively contribute to solve the problem at hand," the lead author told Santhanam. She thought that the composition of such groups to be especially important in the first year of studies when attrition is highest.
Santhanam further quoted Dasgupta who said, "A negative stereotype is like a virus that gets in your mind. When a young female engineering student encounters female figures who defy gender stereotypes, female peers and scientists and engineers are social vaccines."
Does this idea ring true to you, readers? What have you seen of small group work with varying ratios of men and women?
cheers,
Laura

No statistical evidence, but I have been observing the behavior of my math students as they work in groups. When a group is comprised primarily of women, I often see women who are otherwise non-participants working together to solve problems. On the other hand, I also have some men in my class who are exceptionally support of women in their groups and select them to be the spokesperson. I'd be curious to find the source of the behavior, and if it is different in the remedial classes I often teach.

Hi Kelli,
Interesting idea. Yes, I recall Uri Treisman's studies of math students at UCB. Those groups were all one ethnicity I think, while the ones in engineering in this study did not have to be all women to work. The ones with a majority of women worked too. But the underlying idea of cooperating with those like you is certainly similar.
cheers,
Laura
Hey Laura--
Remember that man who observed math students at Berkeley way back when? Triesman I think his name was? He said the same thing. Make small groups of just the minority students and they did very well. I believe he said at the time that the Chinese students did this and succeeded so he tried it with his black Calculus students and they succeeded too. He said they felt they shouldn't need help or study partners, so he didn't give them the option not to be in a group, if I recall correctly. I suspect this study is on in-class group work but I see no reason why it's not comparable.
Kelli
