Models of education, Coeducation, Single-sex educationAbstract
The physical, neurological, cognitive and social development of boys and girls is different. Coeducation argues that the coexistence between boys and girls enriches them, while single-sex education maintains that homogeneous groups by gender respect differences in development and favor personal growth. Differences in development are reflected in different ways of learning that can be exploited in classrooms of students of the same sex; there are researches that show how single-sex education results in better learning in subjects such as mathematics, English, art and language. Differentiated education is not a model that discriminates against any of the sexes, it is a model that promotes justice by helping not to treat equality those who have different needs.
