James, 2012, p.60). In particular, this research project will look at gender differences in school, specifically the courses high school girls take versus the ones boys take. It will also look at the differences in career choices from girls and boys. The research project will examine the role gender plays and how significant it is. The final theory that will be explored is socialisation. Socialisation is the process by which children are taught and learn, to meet the expectations of and fit into a given society (AL. James& A. James, 2012, p.120). This theory will look at the role of parents and the media in a high school student’s future career. Specifically, what roles and values a child’s parents gives them to identify with (AL. James & A. James, 2012, p.120). Furthermore, one will discover the influence of any of these on a high school student’s future
