In the video clip from TED talks Ali Carr-Chellman, an associate professor of education discusses how we can use something that is popular with boys to engage them in learning; because in schools today curriculum are set towards girls achieving more than boys.
In this talk Chellman talks about why girls have a better chance at succeeding in school than boys; and how should we change our methods of teaching today to improve the boys chances of success. She states that some of the reasons why this is happening is because, there are more female teachers than male teachers so they enforce their ideas on the boys. She goes on to say that there should be more input into creating video games which is something that boys are interested in as a source of teaching.
