Sex-related defferences in mathematics achievement, spatial visualization, and affective factors
TL;DR: In this article, a study of 589 female and 644 male, predominantly white, 9th-12th grade students enrolled in mathematics courses from four schools, controlling for mathematics background and general ability (Quick Word Test); relationships to mathematics achievement and to sex-related differences in mathematics achievement, of spatial visualization (Differential Aptitude Test), eight attitudes measured by the Fennema-Sherman Mathematics Attitudes Scales, a measure of Mathematics Activities outside of school, and number of mathematics related courses and Space Related Courses taken.

Christine Howe,Manzoorul Abedin +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a review of classroom dialogue in primary and secondary classrooms is presented, with a succinct picture of what is currently known and where future research might profitably be directed, concluding that much more is known about how classroom dialogue is organized than whether certain modes of organization are more beneficial than others.

Promoting girls' interest and achievement in physics classes for beginners
TL;DR: In this paper, an intervention project aimed at giving girls a better chance in science was carried out focusing on the initial courses of physics in secondary level I (grade 7) and three aspects of innovation were involved: development of new teaching units and materials based on empirical results on the specific interests and experiences of girls; development of strategies to check ones' own (teacher's) classroom behavior; and, alternating single sex with co-educational teaching vs. co-equivalent teaching only.
