Physics in schools


Y is it that gals usually find physics more difficult than boys do?Is it true in all cases?Do u thk it has to do with the psychology of the 2 sexes, the way in which they thk or is it jus a belief in society?

I don't think girls find physics more or less difficult than boys do. I just think girls aren't encouraged to embrace physics and find the beauty in it. We see that happen in alot of male dominated fields, but that's starting to change. Otherwise, girls are capable of grasping the concepts just as well as boys are.

Girls have to learn a lot to reach the level of reasong initially acquired by boys...

Number of women in physics is increasing more and more. We need more Muslims doing physics and taking up the field.

Boys r the ones who reason better than gals despite the fact that gals learn more and are more painstakg. however boys so effortlessly find out such fascinatg answers at times... In my country, it seems that the number of boys takg physics at higher level exceeds that of gals. The Ministry is tryg to encourage gals to do so through activities of the International Year of Physics.I dont c how most gals stay away from Maths!

Physics is deeply associated with mathematics and since most girls stay away from mathematics they also stay from physics. Women physicist have made many contributions to our understanding of physics and we definitely need more of them.

I usually teach about 100 students every semester and in my experience it's the boys who have difficulty with physics whereas the girls the seem to handle it in a more elegant fashion. It could be the neutrino spin is reversed in Toledo which is causing this effect.
