Is there a classroom battle of the sexes that girls win only if boys lose and vice versa? AAUW's Educational Foundation's report Beyond the "Gender Wars": A Conversation About Girls, Boys, and Education (2001) offers key insights presented during a Foundation symposium of scholars who study both girls' and boys' experiences in and out of school. Participants share their insights about gender identity and difference, challenge popular views of girls' and boys' behavior, and explore the meaning of equitable education for the 21st century.
