Characterization of collaborative practices with a gender focus in programming courses: case study - university of San Buenaventura

Published: 25 September 2017 Publication History

Abstract

Some studies suggest that women learn differently than men [1]. Some teaching mechanisms work more effectively with men and others with women, and this has nothing to do with our brain biology. Biologically our brains are exactly the same [2]. The difference is based on the strategies used to teach us; culturally we have been educated differently, we used different toys in our childhood and we are treated differently.
