Any case here's your study. At the very least you finally presented something substantial.
http://s000.tinyupload.com/?file_id=06628375786568734672> Boys who perform equally as well as girls on subject-area tests are graded less favorably by their teachers, but this less favorable treatment essentially vanishes when noncognitive skills are taken into account. For some specifications there is evidence of a grade “bonus” for boys with test scores and behavior like their girl counterparts. Our paper shines a light on the teacher’s role in assessing academic achievement. If, as the data suggest, young girls display a more developed “attitude toward learning” and teachers (consciously or subconsciously) reward these attitudes by giving girls higher marks than warranted by their test scores.So the skew seems not to be towards the gender, but towards the attitude of the gender. Boys who have the right attitude in class still get graded equally, sometimes even better. That's the gist of it
