Introduction:
Our communication processes have been developed from the ancient period of time,
experiencing evolvement in terms of our sharing ideas and beliefs. Human race have
experienced changes in communicative processes with the different approaches related to
cultures and gendered aspects. Therefore, in present time people use different types of verbal
and nonverbal expressive methods to communicate among each other. The processes in
communication varies in some cases like the genders have their own aspect of
communicating and thinking processes of their own. Here, this research paper will be related
to the evaluation of verbal and nonverbal communication of boys and girls who were treated
differently throughout their academic careers.
Discussion:
The ways of communication in between people have changed a lot in course of time
and the approaches in between boys and girls regarding communication has got more variety
of specific terms like language, culture and patterns of communicative systems. From the
beginning the communication based on gender has taught the boys and girls different ways of
talking and perceiving different emotions in terms of biased gendered educational systems.
Are Boys and Girls taught gender in our public school systems?
Boys and Girls after joining schools are being treated differently throughout their
academic journey, mainly based on their gender. Therefore, it can be said that the gender is
not only taught about in the biology classes only. From the beginning of academic career in
schools, boys are given more attention and provided with more academic possibilities than a
girl in the same class. These affect the possibilities of the girls in the class in expressing their
thinks and thoughts regarding any important topic related to academic development.
(Christensen, 2015).

Are Female and Male students given equal support in K-12 schools?
In a serious note, girls perform better than boys in the K-12 model schools or an
elementary academic schooling. The K-12 model school model results them a higher grade
than boys because of having less gendered education rules in the academic course sessions. In
general, most of the girls choose arts and literature subjects after the completion of high
schools and boys like to prefer maths and sciences in according to their likeable subject
(Gracia, 2015). Therefore, the grades do not affect their career perspectives, though in some
cases on the higher education Boys are less considered as a good student rather than a girl
(Kim, 2018). As reported in the last few years, there are many issues relating to the higher
studies of the students. The number of students enrolled in the graduation program of
sciences, technology, engineering and mathematics as in STEM fields has been found to
higher number of male students compared to female in the first year. Therefore, there is clear
sign of gender inequality in higher educational insitutions.
What differences a student evaluates male and female instructors?
A student in the higher education can evaluate his or her instructors with the regime
of Student Evaluations of Teachers (SET), the universities ask the students to routinely
provide feedback of their instructors about how they are teaching and providing the students
the study materials to help them grow irrespective of gender, colour, race and culture.
Though some reports do suggest that, students’ evaluation of the instructors based on to the
gender are quite natural. As in the report suggests, gender biasness do exist in terms of the
evaluation of the instructors. Though, students from the universities have neglected the idea
of biasness in the aspects of gender in the instructors’ point of view (Sutton, Bosky & Muller,
