re: Query re readings for course, "Gender, Information
     Technology, and Transnational Cultures" (McLaughlin, Lisa M. Dr.)

Two good edited volumes on the topic:

Women, Gender, and Technology...eds. Mary Frank Fox, Deborah G. Johnson, and
Sue V. Rosser, 2006, University of Illinois Press
Gender & Technology....eds. Nina E. Lerman, Ruth Oldenziel, Arwen P. Mohun,
2003,The Johns Hopkins University Press

Good luck, sounds like a great class.
