Dear list members,

While examining differences between women and men participation in Web-based
instruction, I found that women posted more than men. In face-to-face
instruction, I found the opposite, well-documented observation: men talked
much more than women. I wonder if someone here know of researches that dealt
with women preference for written communication (as opposed to other
communications, e.g., face-to-face conversation, video-conferencing etc.).

Many thanks,

Dr. Avner Caspi
