Boys and foreign language learning: Real boys don’t do languages

Carr, Jo; Pauwels, Anne

Abstract

The authors examine the continuing poor relationship between boys and the study of foreign languages. Framed by discussion of gender socialization, gendered curriculum practices and cultural narratives about boys and schooling, the core of the book is constructed by boys themselves.
