Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of gender-based strategies and same-sex grouping in a high
school social studies classroom. Prior to implementing my action research in class, I researched gender-based strategies and
same-sex grouping. After reading the research, I decided to do an action research project by grouping genders together and
trying various strategies in my classroom. The data that I collected during my action research project was field notes/teacher
observations, a student survey, and a comparison of students grades before and after the project. The results of the study
concluded that the gender-based strategies and same-sex grouping had both positive and negative effects in my classroom.
