A number of research studies have found differences between male and female students’ classroom participation. Some researchers link these differences to students’ gender, asserting that female students’ low participation is the result of male students’ active classroom participation. The purpose of this qualitative case study was to explore differences between students’ gender and their classroom participation and to investigate the ways through which students gender manifest itself in disadvantaging other students. Four students – both male and female – were interviewed using a semi-structured interview schedule; two classroom observations were conducted, having different classroom gender compositions. Apart from the students two teachers of the observed classes were also interviewed, for gaining a better understanding of the differences between male and female students’ classroom participation and the reasons that disadvantage a specific gender. Findings suggest and confirm that university climate presents less friendly environment to female students.
