Abstract

Results from international comparative studies on students’ performance point out that to date school subjects in Germany are divided into gender-specific domains regarding pupils’ interests, motivation, academic self-concepts and, partially, achievements. For example, mathematics, unlike languages, is still seen as a “typical boys’ subject” (cf. Bos et al. 2008; Mullis et al. 2000; OECD 2001, 2004, 2007, 2010).
