I agree with the two posters above. If women aren't maintaining their GPA's, some random presentation isn't going to fix that. If women are right on the bubble (i.e. your requirement is a 3.0 and they are above a 2.5), they may need just a little nudging in terms of the things Kevin has suggested, and they may need some carrot/stick incentives to come into play. A workshop for this group may be effective, but I'd start by asking them what they are having trouble with.
If women are really doing poorly, you (and ideally an advisor, as well) would be wise to chat with them one-on-one to try to find out what is going on. Women who seriously under-perform may need a referral to campus counseling, an academic advisor, or something like that.
Also, something that worked in my chapter was to pair up girls to go to class. I had an 8am class I hated attending, but when my 8am buddy came by my room (I have no idea if you have a chapter house) to announce it was time to get to class, I was more likely to go than if left to my own devices. We weren't even in the same class, just walking to the same general area of campus.
