' Classroom Strategies Should Recognise That Men And Women Use Language Differently By Deborah Tannen
The second text that is not hard to understand is “Teachers' Classroom Strategies Should Recognize that Men and Women Use Language Differently” by Tannen, Deborah. I had to zoom in and really focus on part I was reading to not get confused or mixed up, but Tannen’s points are really clear and straight forwards. Throughout the article she talks about how boys are different than girls, and that boys tend to be more involved in activities than girls. That in order to change that, teachers need to start making everyone get involved equally and they need to know how to approach them because they are not the same. Tannen gives examples of her own experiments and she states her evaluations. That’s why it was really easy to understand her message.
When I didn’t understood something, I went back and re-read it. I also tried to look for keywords that helped me understand what the author is saying.
