Man Up!: Why boys are falling behind in education and what you can do at your school to help stop it (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781493782116)

Male students are no longer finding the same degree of success in school that they used to experience. Why are fewer men graduating from colleges and universities? Why do boys generally seem less engaged at school? Man Up!, written by a teacher for teachers, explores the reasons behind these concerns. Through survey questions, anecdotes, observations, ideas and activities, Man Up! endeavors to get middle school boys thinking about the future and their role in it. Man Up! offers some ideas and certainly asks many questions. At last count, there are more than 250 questions in this book! The reader is encouraged to take these ideas and questions and challenge your colleagues, your administrators, your students and yourself. By asking questions, generating action, and paying closer attention to their concerns, boys just may begin to realize that we actually care and that we want them to do well. And that alone might make all the difference.
