Answer to Question 1

At least two differences should be noted:
 The males control the computers while the females serve primarily as secretaries, recording answers on the worksheets. Joan and Carol have little direct contact with the computer models; they are merely writing down what their lab partners are telling them.
 When males respond to Ms. McNaught's questions, she encourages them to elaborate on their answers. When females respond, however, she acknowledges that they are correct but then either provides a more detailed explanation herself or asks a different student to do so.

Answer to Question 2

Yes. When he provides some guidance and retrieval cues, students can successfully answer his questions and address the problem he presents.
