Abstract

Education plays a major role in the way that each individual ‘s life unfolds. Several factors affect the type and quality of education that one gets. It is a choice for every person to get him or herself educated. Taking into consideration the day to day world education is must for everyone no matter which class, sect, society, colour they belong to . One major situation that affects the way people learn is having the opposite sex in the same learning environment. For some students it’s a hindrance and for other it doesn’t matter, but more often what we find in our society is that presence of opposite sex students in same classroom is a kind of hindrance, because of introvert nature of most students. Mostly what we find is that males over speak females and feel it necessary to overpower the females. Although there is a high rate of competition in classrooms, single sex institutions have a smaller number, that means that these institutions are not found everywhere, but what has been found is that students perform well in these institutions. Because males speak more than females, the girls are often scared to express what they think about issues.
