Why Do Girls and Boys Learn Differently?
1 Do you believe that only boys do well in science?Does it seem to you that girls have better vocabularies than boys?If your answers are"yes",you may be right,according to an article in Current Science.While it is important to read things with an open mind,here are some of the article's findings.
2 On average,males score higher on tests that measure mathematical reasoning,mechanical ability,and problem-solving skills.Females,on the other hand ,do better on tests measuring vocabulary,spelling,and memory.
3 Usually,too,baby girls talk at an earlier age than boys do.Scientists think there is a physical reason for this.They believe that nerves in the left side of the brain develop faster in girls than in boys.It is this side of the brain that strongly influences a person's ability to use words,to spell,and to remember.
4 According to the article,by the time they start school,little girls have an advantage that boys do not have:girls are physically more ready to remember facts,to spell,to spell,and to read.These,of course,are skills that are very important as children first begin school.
5 What,then,is happening with boys during their years before starting school?Some people say that society is teaching them to be more forceful than girls.A forceful person is said to be unafraid of questioning others,and to be an independent thinker.
6 What produces such force in little boys?It has long been assumed that it is the result of chemistry in the male body.Scientists today,however,believe that there are other,outside,factors too.They say such force is learned from parents.
7 A team of researchers discovered that there are strong differences between how boys and girls are raised:while daughters in their study were often kept close to their parents,sons were encour-aged to move on their own and to develop independence.
8 As a result,it is easy to understand why little girls often perform school tasks better than boys,especially if the task requires sitting still,obeying orders,and accepting the teacher's ideas.A girl may do very well in school,while a boy the same age may bring home lower marks.Why,then,do so few girls become great scientists?
9 While boys are taught in society to be more forceful,and to solve problems themselves,girls,on the other hand,are not encouraged to be this way.Girls,therefore,are often limited to getting high marks in school for remembering what the teacher has told them,instead of being allowed to question without fear like boys.
10 In today's world,most people believe that this situation is wrong,and that there is a solution:if men and women were both encouraged to learn and to solve problems in the same ways,more room would be available in society for new ideas from everyone.
