According to advocates of coeducation, without classmates of the opposite sex, students have social issues that may impact adolescent development.

Some studies show that in classes that are separated by gender, male and female students work and learn on

781-399: A single-sex setting could be less prepared, nervous, or uneasy. However, some argue that at certain ages, students may be more distracted by the opposite sex in a coeducational setting, but others point to this being based on an assumption that all students are heterosexual.

Some professors simply ignored
