This article addresses gender differences in academic performance within the
Malaysian education system. Secondary data on public examination results
over a period of five years (1996-2000) were analysed and a questionnaire was
administered on 3,000 secondary school students and 1,118 teachers. The student
questionnaire explored students’ style of learning, their study skills and feelings
toward teachers and school in general; whereas the teacher questionnaire
explored teacher perceptions towards male and female students’ learning style,and their interpretation and implementation of the curriculum. National
examination results at all levels (UPSR, PMR and SPM) in 1996-2000 shows that
girls perform better than boys across almost all school subjects. The nature of
these differences was examined and some of the underlying factors behind these
differential achievements were discussed. It has been found that girls seem to
do better on sustained tasks that require memorising unambiguous facts and
rules while boys are more responsive to open-ended tasks, which are related to
practical and realistic situations. Result of the study also shows that girls possess
positive characteristics that contribute to better academic performance
compared to boys. An analysis of the approaches towards creating a context
for achievement of both girls and boys is offered, with a focus on pedagogical
and socio-cultural strategies. |
