Until recently, it was believed that male-female differences in math and science were caused by Biology. In other words, girls' and boys' brains are different, so they are better suited for different things. The notion is that boys have superior spatial abilities, making them better suited for certain mathematical manipulations. Girls, on the other hand, are supposed to be better at language and writing. Evidence shows that boys do excel in math, and girls appear to do better in verbal-related skills.
More recently, researchers have focused on the influence of the social environment on children's math and science achievement. Very early on, boys are given the chance to tinker with toys or objects (for example, building blocks, Legos, racing cars, and simple machines) that involve many of the principles inherent in math and science. Girls often lack these experiences, so they enter math and science classrooms feeling insecure about their abilities. Girls then begin to believe they cannot do math and science as well as boys. This belief is consistent with a stereotype in our culture that defines math and science as male domains. That is, males are better suited for math and science, and math and science are more useful to males than to females. Also, personality traits attributed to mathematicians and scientists are associated more with males. Mathematicians and scientists are often thought to be competitive, achievement-oriented, and not very social.
no
With Microsoft Excel, you can solve math problems (basic and scientific) and use and create graphs. If you have Word, than you should have Excel.
You can say, "There are 23 boys in the math class." Alternatively, you could say, "In the math class, there are 23 boys." Both statements clearly convey the number of boys present in the class.
I excel.
yes you can do math in excel, it is very easy.
People don't realize that math can be both a "girl thing" and "boy thing". Some people think boys are better at math because teachers don't pay attention to girls in math. Nothing is a "girl thing" or a "boy thing", boys and girls do tend to be better at different things, but that doesn't mean that that thing is a "girl thing" or "boy thing". Girls can do better at math that boys, and boys can do better at math than girls, but that doesn't mean that all boys are better at math that all girls.
Well technically boys are supposed to do better at math because they have more logical brains but it doesn't mean girls will always do worse than boys.
For me the math functions and totaling columns of numbers
Math may not be the issue here.
Excel is for numerical analysis and manipulation, so mathematics is critical to it. Excel also follows the rules of mathematics, so it is important that people have some basic knowledge of mathematics when using it.
Well I think there equal. Because when I was at Math Counts, I saw a equal amount of boys and girls. So I think that boys are better at math then girls is baised.
Lots and lots of study and learning. -Unless you excel at math, forget it.
