This book was released on 2015 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A gender gap in mathematics achievement has been found in many countries. Researchers are trying to find ways to reduce the gap. Single-sex schooling was then discussed, but the results varied. As well as, limited number of studies examined the role of single-sex schooling to the relationship between gender and mathematics achievement. However, math self- efficacy has been confirmed to influence students' mathematics achievement successfully. For capturing the relationship between single-sex schooling and mathematics achievement in South Korea and Hong Kong, also exploring the role of math self-efficacy to the gender difference, PISA 2012 dataset was used in the current study. Hierarchical regression models were used to address the research questions. The results suggest that single sex schooling is not related to mathematics achievement in both South Korea and Hong Kong. Also, single sex schooling does not moderate the relationship between gender and mathematics achievement in both countries. Besides, a significant gender gap in mathematics achievement was found in both countries, after taking into account relevant school level factors. Finally, math self-efficacy mediates the relationship between gender and mathematics achievement in South Korea, but not in Hong Kong.

This book was released on 2006-04-11 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE REAL WORLD OF MATHEMATICS, SCIENCE, AND TECHNOLOGY EDUCATION In this Preface, I would like to focus on what I mean by “education” and speak about the models and metaphors that are used when people talk, write, and act in the domain of education. We need to look at the assu- tions and processes that the models and metaphors implicitly and explicitly contain. I feel we should explore whether there is a specific thrust to mat- matics education in the here and now, and be very practical about it. For me education is the enhancement of knowledge and understanding, and there is a strong and unbreakable link between the two. There seems l- tle point in acquiring knowledge without understanding its meaning. Nor is it enough to gain a deep understanding of problems without gaining the appropriate knowledge to work for their solution. Thus knowledge and understanding are each necessary conditions for the process of education, but only when they are linked will the process bear fruit. Only in the b- anced interplay of knowledge and understanding can we expect to achieve genuine education.

This book was released on 2015 with total page 8 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Exploring why more boys than girls continue to study higher levels of mathematics in senior school when there appear to be no gender differences in achievement in earlier years is worthy of investigation. There are potentially many reasons why this occurs including career aspirations, interest, and attitudes. One factor explored in this study was the gender composition of classes in Years 7 to 9. Data were collected from students in a single-sex boy's school, a single-sex girl's school and a coeducational school. Data revealed differences in attitude to mathematics with girls in the single-sex school having the most positive attitudes and girls in the coeducation setting having the least positive attitudes.

Download or read book Gender in the Secondary Curriculum written by Ann Clark and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2005-07-28 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 'gender gap' in GCSE results continues to be of prime concern, and there is now a real need for knowledge about how teachers can address this gap. In this volume, a team of contributors considers the gender issues particular to each subject of the secondary curriculum. They discuss effective strategies supported by their research and practice, and offer some ways forward for teachers. The book begins with an overview of contemporary social and cultural approaches to schooling and gender, focusing particularly on the contribution of feminist scholars to the debate. It further examines key aspects of the secondary school curriculum and the implications for learners of their gendered identity. The final section moves beyond the classroom to discuss the influence of current theoretical perspectives on the complex inter-relationship between the curriculum and young peoples' gendered identities, and its implications for their future development. In discussing the character of boys' and girls' achievements in a range of school subjects, the authors seek to 'balance the books' by debating the different, if sometimes competing needs of both boys and girls.

This book was released on 2007-05-18 with total page 981 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inequality is a marked and persistent feature of education systems, both in the developed and the developing worlds. Major gaps in opportunity and in outcomes have become more critical than in the past, thanks to the knowledge economy and globalization. The pursuit of equity as a goal of public policy is examined in this book through a series of national case-studies. The book covers many different global contexts from the wealthiest to some of the poorest nations on earth. It therefore offers a broad range of different theoretical and methodological approaches, and brings together extensive international experience in equity policy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite many years of equality of choice, boys and girls continue to differ in both the subjects they study at school and later in the careers they decide to pursue. In this collection of papers by leading researchers from academic and practitioner backgrounds, the current evidence from a range of fields is reviewed. Drawing on both their own original research and that of others, the contributors consider topics as diverse as subject choice in secondary school, differences in brain functions between the sexes, the comparison of men and women in management and recruiting women to science and technology.
