| dc.description.abstract | During the recent decades, the link between students' academic outcomes and the type of the school they attend has been at the centre of much attention throughout the world; on account of the growing body of evidence that suggests a positive influence of single sex instruction on students' educational outcomes in comparison with coeducation's. So far there has been little agreement within the scientific community about the suitability of coeducation as an excellent substitute to single sex schooling, as well as its competence to address students' different needs. Accordingly, our study sought to confirm previous findings and contribute additional evidence that ascertain the effectiveness of single gender schools in enhancing students' academic outcomes; likewise to shed a contemporary light on the issue of mixed gender education together with its impact on students in Algeria. For this reason, a quantitative approach was used to survey teachers' perspectives concerning the effects of both types of schooling on the educational outcomes of students via questionnaires; which were basically administered to teachers of two middle schools in Medea. The findings hence, indicated that there was a strong and positive relationship between same gender education and the promotion of females' academic outcomes in particular (p = .015); equally displayed the determent effects of mixed gender education on students of both sexes. This study should be therefore of value to practitioners wishing to investigate such a topic. | ar |
