Shortchanging Girls and Boys.
Bailey, Susan McGee
Educational Leadership, v53 n8 p75-79 May 1996
The principal author of the 1992 study "How Schools Shortchange Girls" argues that too many proposed remedies are simplistic formulations based on the assumption that gender equity is "for girls only." Opportunities will widen for all students if educators acknowledge schooling's gender bias, review their own practices, and learn from all-girl environments. (MLH)
