Cinderella Or Cyberella?
Cinderella or Cyberella: what is the future for women in the knowledge society? Cyberella is fluent in the uses of technology, comfortable using and designing computer technology, and working in virtual spaces. Cinderella works in the basement of the knowledge society with little opportunity to reap its benefits. Promoting women’s empowerment through ICTs is one of the critical development challenges of the 21st century. Nancy Hafkin and Sophia Huyer, acknowledged as leading scholars on gender and information technology, have assembled a stellar group of authors for this collection. Each essay in the collection depicts ways in ICTs provide opportunities for women to improve their incomes, gain awareness of their rights, and improve their own and their families’ well-being. Illustrative case studies from Africa, Asia and Latin America, show the global possibilities for women’s empowerment through ICTs. Other Contributors: Sonia N. Jorge, Shafika Isaacs, Shoba Arun, Richard Heeks, Sharon Morgan, Maria Garrido, Raul Roman, and Vikas Nath.

OU Women
OU Women is the first book to look at the liberating effect that studying with the OU can have on its graduates. It charts the inspiring stories of fourteen women who empowered themselves and radically changed the course of their lives. The women whose stories make up this book were in their twenties, thirties and forties when they decided to take charge of their lives and write a new future for themselves. They had one thing in common: they felt bored and frustrated, stagnating in jobs that didn't fulfill them, or trapped at home, limited by a lack of education. They beat the odds, finding the courage to take that first foundation course at the Open University. Misha was a receptionist -- she is now a management consultant. Shirleen was a housewife -- she is now working as an actuary. Teresa has swapped a career as a piano teacher for that of a cytogeneticist. The OU gave these women a second chance, irrespective of their previous education, locale or class.
