Describe gender bias and how it can affect how a student is viewed by a teacher

What will be an ideal response?


Gender bias is when a person possesses different views of female versus male competencies. Most frequently these views favor one gender over another. This may be a problem in a classroom if a teacher views one gender as being more competent in a subject area. This may lead to a teacher not giving equal chances to all students to succeed.
