几十年来,男女学生在坚持学习物理方面的差异一直是物理教育工作者关注的一个话题。总的来说,虽然女生的成绩与男生一样好或比男生好,1但在坚持性方面仍然落后很多。2由于大多数女物理学家报告说,她们在高中时就被物理学所吸引,并决定进一步学习物理学,3根据国际妇女参与物理学研究,高中也是女性开始选择退出的比率比男性高得多的阶段,这是有问题的。虽然在高中学习一年物理的学生中有一半是女性,但女性比男性更不可能参加第二次或高级安置(AP)物理课程。4此外,在大学中参加第一次物理课程的女性的百分比通常在30%和40%之间下降福尔斯。
The disparity in persistence between males and females studying physics has been a topic of concern to physics educators for decades. Overall, while female students perform as well as or better than male students,1 they continue to lag considerably in terms of persistence. The most significant drop in females studying physics occurs between high school and college.2 Since most female physicists report that they became attracted to physics and decided to study it further while in high school, according to the International Study of Women in Physics,3 it is problematic that high school is also the stage at which females begin to opt out at much higher rates than males. Although half of the students taking one year of physics in high school are female, females are less likely than males to take a second or Advanced Placement (AP) physics course.4 In addition, the percentage of females taking the first physics course in college usually falls between 30% and 40%.1 In other words, although you may see gender pa...
