GENDER INEQUITIES MEDIA REVIEW

WEB PAGE REVIEW

The material on Gender Inequities that I found is a web

page that discusses strategies to reduce or eliminate gender

inequities in Science. It is basically a list of tactics

discussing techniques on how to help girls overcome their

anxieties in science. This web page came from the NCREL

Internet site which stands for North Central Regional

Educational Laboratory. This Internet site offers easy to

find, concise, research-based information on school

improvement.

The Gender Inequities webpage gives good information on

how to make girls feel equal when dealing with Science.

This would be a good webpage for teachers who are involved

in the science curriculum, especially those who are having

trouble getting girls more involved in the subject. This is

also a good webpage for parents to help them understand the

problems that their daughter may be having in school, and

what they can do about it. The strategies that this web

page discusses how to hold girls to high expectations in

science classes and encourage girls to take these classes,

because they are just as capable as boys.

This web page is commendable because it is very

informative, yet very simple and only takes a minute to

read. It is a good reference to have in the classroom to

help reduce Gender Bias in the Sciences. If an instructor

is having trouble getting girls involved in their science

classes, this is something they should defiantly read.

I would recommend schools to use this list in their

curriculum in the future to help educate teachers as well as

parents and students on how to reduce the Gender Bias that

is affecting many girls in their Science classes. Many

girls seem to think that in Science and Math, they just do

not add up to the boys intellectually. As false as this may

be, it is still a reoccurring problem
