Girls and engineering

Because Emily is a girl, I am going to look for a special spatial orientation class for her when she's a high schooler. There have been tests that show that the kind of spatial orientation that boys seem to have and girls (in general) don't, can be *taught*. If it is taught, girls score just as well in engineering, drafting, all those other freshman engineering classes. If it isn't taught, they don't.
