Jag citerar checklistan:

• When your school staff describes the “ideal student,” does that description sound more like a girl than a boy?
• Do teachers take away recess as a form of punishment? What is the nature of the zero tolerance policy?
• Who is being referred to special education and what are the primary reasons?
• What percentage of class time is dedicated to lecture as opposed to more active approaches to learning? If you use a block schedule, do teachers teach differently during the block periods?
• Does your school respond to missed homework with zeroes in the gradebook or insist that the work gets done, even if it’s late?
• What percent of grades are based on compliance versus content mastery?
• To what extent are students allowed to direct their own learning and/or to incorporate their out-of-school interests?
• How might the physical environment of the classrooms and common areas be made more conducive for boys?
• What does your school do to increase students’ exposure to positive male role models?
• In what ways do teachers create personal connections with boys – especially the disengaged, angry or resistant boy?
• How might your school’s time-honored ways of doing things be getting in the way of boys’ success?

Och nu kommer slutklämmen (håll i er)

“Responding to the learning styles of boys will help a school become more effective in meeting the needs of all students – including the girls.”
