Game of Words: View vs. Counter View 2.29




Single Sex schools are better for education
View

Few educators are formally trained to use gender-specific teaching techniques. However, it’s no secret that experienced teachers usually understand gender differences and are adept at accommodating a variety of learning styles within their mixed-gender classrooms.In terms of the compounding influence of being in a single-sex school over time, there appears to be no value add in numeracy achievement and even a decline in reading achievement over time in single-sex schools compared to co-educational schools.Boys in coeducational settings are less likely to take courses in the arts or tackle advanced academic subjects. Boys tend to soften their competitive edge and become more collaborative in a single-sex setting and rule dialogs and gathering based learning.Girls often are less shy in a single-sex environment, which means they often take more risks. They become more positively competitive and would take up community oriented and talk based subjects. Specific teaching strategies can be adapted to accomplish specific goals.Single sex schools make it comfortable to adjust to varied learning conditions.These schools have been very advantageous to young ladies and young men.

Counterview:
We have spent several generations advancing the equality of the sexes. Much progress has been made.With that in mind coeducation which is based on that laudable theme of equality seems like the right way to go. That's why most private and public schools use the coeducation model. Most of the time that works well. Experts feel that mixed schools prepares the children towards the real world of men and women, a place where no segregation is found.They learn to get together with eachother in all aspects of job and profession.These schools provide an experience to get along with different people from varied cultures, races,ages and backgounds.It teaches them to accept and respect the differences.Single sex schools instigates gender stereotyping and gender inequality. They get to mingle with eachother and understand their ways of thinking.
