Should girls and boys be taught separately? Laura M. (2n batx B)

Girls and boys should be taught separately

During the history a lot of people had been thinking about the idea of having different classes or even schools for girls and boys, because (I suppose), so many years ago, girls and boys studied separately. But is it necessary to apply this method? I will answer this question by discussing the arguments in favor and the points against, and finally I will give my opinion on the conclusion.

On one hand, if girls and boys were taught separately, especially if they were teenagers, because they get distracted a lot with the people from other genre, they would be more concentrated in class because they wouldn’t have any distraction like that. The behavior between girls and boys is different, so if they were separated, the teachers could apply different taps of discipline and the results in each student would be better.
But, on the other hand, that boys and girls stay together is the best option because they can develop good relationship with anyone and they will be prepared for the real world. If they were separated, when they would talk with each other they wouldn’t know what to say or how to act. Although the girls and the boys had different points of view it is not an excuse to educate them separately. They have to have the same education and discipline, because it’s more enriching that boys and girls are in the same class. If they are together, they will learn more, because their way of think is different in some points and it would be helpful for all to share their opinions. Also, this usually can make you realize your mistakes.

To sum up, I believe that it is more useful that girls and boys are teaching together because it prepares them for the future, for the communication (a foundation for life and for work) and that in this way, they can learn more because they have different points of view and to discuss each other they have to reflect more and better their opinions.
