Why Secondary Education Institutions Should be Divided by Gender Until the second part of the 20th century, most secondary education institutions were divided by gender. This method of teaching suddenly changed in the second part of the 20th century. Nowadays, the idea of dividing schools by gender is back on track. To prevent distraction by the students of the opposite sex, single sex schools are needed. By dividing the schools by gender, the teaching techniques can be focused towards the specific gender of the students. Another positive point about single-sex schools is that they will break down the gender stereotypes. Because of these arguments, I think it would be a valuable (and useful) change to divide all secondary education institutions by gender. The first argument that I will give for single-sex schools is that students wont be distracted anymore by students of the opposite sex. Research has shown that students can focus better when they are separated into different classrooms (one for males and the other for females). The research has shown that especially at the age of a high school student, a student of the opposite sex can be a distraction. To prevent distraction of somebody of the opposite sex, single-sex schools are needed. (bron/referentie?) Another argument for the single-sex schools is also a fact. Recent research has shown that the brains of boys develop differently than the brains of girls. This also means that the optimal teaching techniques differs for each gender. For example, research has shown that girls learn better in a warm classroom, while boys perform better in a cooler one. By dividing students by gender, the classroom temperature can be adapted to the gender of the students. because of this fact, single-sex school can achieve better results. (bron/referentie) Finally, the last argument that I will give is that single sex-schools will break down the gender stereotypes. For example, girls are free of the pressure to compete with boys in several male-dominated subjects such as maths and science. Boys, on the other hand, can more easily pursue traditionally "feminine" interests such as music and poetry. This argument is based on statistics: girls at single-sex school achieve better results at math and science while boys achieve better results at literature and poetry. In conclusion, single-sex schools have a lot of advantages that will improve the results of students. single sex schools will prevent distraction of a student of the opposite sex, single-sex schools can adapt their teaching techniques to the gender of the students and single-sex schools will break down the gender stereotypes. I can assure you, dividing all secondary education institutions by gender will be a valuable change. Volgens mij zijn "in-text references" nodig voor specifieke informatie. voorbeeld: "Recent studies have shown that single-sex schools will give students the oppertunity to reach more advanced scores at school. (Wider World, p68-69)" Als je dit informatie van het internet haalt, moet je ook een bibliografie schrijven. Voorbeeld in MLA style bibliografie: Waugh, David. Wider World.: Nelson Thornes, 2005. Print. of gebruik http://www.easybib.com/ Je bent niet slecht in Engels =) keep it up, and good luck Misschien kan iemand dit even dubbel nakijken, just in case Laatst gewijzigd op 09-11-2010 om 21:22. |
