To Richard Reeves – men/boys/women/girls – via Ezra Klein podcast-replay
To Richard Reeves. This morning, I listened to an Ezra Klein podcast-replay with your insights into gender. Very thought-provoking; particularly as we have “opposite” family compositions as we have three daughters! A question: as you highlight the recent trends in gender in school, did you find any research which controlled for (or at least considered?) the tremendous changes in education, pedagogy, assessment/grading, curriculum, etc., which rapidly emerged during the same period as the “flip” from boys leading the achievement gap to girls leading the achievement gap?
