Gender and education

In May the American Association of University Women released a report that describes the amazing strides girls have made in educational attainment in the last 35 years. They pointedly argue that this has not been at the expense of boys. 

USA Today reporter Richard Whitmire disagrees vehemently, and has a new blog just to explore Why Boys Fail.

Regardless of your point of view on whether there’s a boys crisis or a girls crisis or both or neither in education today, the blog is a great source of interesting links. Check the sidebar on the right for a library of editorials and reports worth checking out if you’re interested in gender and education.
