ListView Height="100" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Margin="27,98,0,0" Name="listView1" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="320">
        <ListView.View>
            <GridView>
                <GridViewColumn Width="160" Header="Name"></GridViewColumn>
                <GridViewColumn Width="160" Header="Age"></GridViewColumn>

            </GridView>
        </ListView.View>
    </ListView>

Answer 1

A couple of things:

1. Set the ListView.ItemsSource equal to the collection of Student objects.
2. Set the DisplayMemberBinding property of the GridViewColumn. (An alternative is to set the CellTemplate property).

Applying these two to your sample XAML:

<ListView Height="100" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Margin="27,98,0,0" Name="listView1" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="320" ItemsSource="{Binding StudentCollection}">
            <ListView.View>
                <GridView>
                    <GridViewColumn Width="160" Header="Name" DisplayMemberBinding="{Binding Name}"></GridViewColumn>
                    <GridViewColumn Width="160" Header="Age" DisplayMemeberBinding="{Binding Age}"></GridViewColumn>

                </GridView>
            </ListView.View>
        </ListView>
