What are the advantages and disadvantage of Co-Education in college?

[Muhammad Shoaib]

Co education is a better system of education already very much common in the western world but now it is being adopted by almost all countries of the world. This system has many pros and cons based on the way it is being adopted, implemented and utilized in the education institution like schools, college and universities.
When boys and girls are educated together, there is a stronger sense of competition. The boys often want to do better than the girls and the girls want to show the boys that they are equally as smart. The competition is usually friendly and gives students more motivation to work toward goals. When boys and girls are educated together, there is no need for two separate schools and the costs can be combined. Fewer teachers need to be paid to education children together.
As for the disadvantages, opposite sexes always have mutual attraction. The students are passing through a crucial period of their life. They are likely to be sexually attacted. It may affect their learning efforts. There may be one or two elements which would engage in eve teasing, and some acts of false bravado which they see in films. But anti-social and irresposible elements are present everywhere. Untoward incidents in co-educational institutions could be avoided with better administration.

One of the leading disadvantages of co-education is lack of concentration. As we all know that opposite sex attracts each other so they lose temperament and momentum to their studies. It has also been seen in co-educational institutions that sexual harassment is causing students.

 

[Adebayonle7]

Great explanations and highlights. Although the advantages are much more than the disadvantages. It is important for both sexes to learn different unique attributes pertaining to their sex. The boys also provides protection in a way to the girls and the girls feel safer being around boys than with fellow girls but this isn't the same for boys. Although distraction is inevitable but this system is better.

 

[Snazzy001]

Well, everything that has disadvantage also has disadvantage.
It is advantageous that both sex will compete evenly and that boosts gender equality which most people look foward to seeing.
But it is a disadvantage also when the both sex engage in immorality while they all relate in the various institution.

You can make a living writing. Yes, it's possible to support yourself by writing full-time. And you don't have to be famous or lucky to do it. I've done it for the past six years and have coached thousands of others through the same process, seeing many of them succeed.

As it is with most things in life,we cannot overemphasised the important of coeducation while looking at the demerit of coeducation.
The issue males will eventually face later on in life on how to properly relate and interact with the opposite sex will be eliminated.It will build their self confidence as well.

Nice explanation. But the idea of co-education as you have explained it has not yet got here and so I won't be able to say anything about it at present

 

[Ralphjoe]

The system of co-education is actually the modern and most effective way of education in the world currently and the system of segregating the different sexes in the classroom is not a good way of education.

 

[Erik4150]

Yes there are disadvantages attached to co education but the the advantages by far outweighs the disadvantages and whatever worry you may have.

The co education system has it's advantages as well as disadvantages. One of the advantages as mentioned by the poster is the coexistence between the opposite sex and development of social and moral values. One of the disadvantages is the risk and spread of gender list among the middle aged students.
