Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1985, the Handbook for Achieving Gender Equity Through Education quickly established itself as the essential reference work concerning gender equity in education. This new, expanded edition provides a 20-year retrospective of the field, one that has the great advantage of documenting U.S. national data on the gains and losses in the efforts to advance gender equality through policies such as Title IX, the landmark federal law prohibiting sex discrimination in education, equity programs and research. Key features include: Expertise – Like its predecessor, over 200 expert authors and reviewers provide accurate, consensus, research-based information on the nature of gender equity challenges and what is needed to meet them at all levels of education. Content Area Focus – The analysis of gender equity within specific curriculum areas has been expanded from 6 to 10 chapters including mathematics, science, and engineering. Global/Diversity Focus – Global gender equity is addressed in a separate chapter as well as in numerous other chapters. The expanded section on gender equity strategies for diverse populations contains seven chapters on African Americans, Latina/os, Asian and Pacific Island Americans, American Indians, gifted students, students with disabilities, and lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender students. Action Oriented – All chapters contain practical recommendations for making education activities and outcomes more gender equitable. A final chapter consolidates individual chapter recommendations for educators, policymakers, and researchers to achieve gender equity in and through education. New Material – Expanded from 25 to 31 chapters, this new edition includes: *more emphasis on male gender equity and on sexuality issues; *special within population gender equity challenges (race, ability and disability, etc); *coeducation and single sex education; *increased use of rigorous research strategies such as meta-analysis showing more sex similarities and fewer sex differences and of evaluations of implementation programs; *technology and gender equity is now treated in three chapters; *women’s and gender studies; *communication skills relating to English, bilingual, and foreign language learning; and *history and implementation of Title IX and other federal and state policies. Since there is so much misleading information about gender equity and education, this Handbook will be essential for anyone who wants accurate, research-based information on controversial gender equity issues—journalists, policy makers, teachers, Title IX coordinators, equity trainers, women’s and gender study faculty, students, and parents.

This book was released on 2024-01-10 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Education is a potent tool that has the ability to influence both people and societies. We can build a more just and inclusive society where everyone is respected and given the same chances to succeed through education. Gender equality is a key component of this vision because it guarantees that everyone has access to the same rights, opportunities, and resources regardless of their gender identity. In order to better understand the transformative role that teacher education plays in advancing gender equality, "Unveiling the Power of Teacher Education: Promoting Gender Equality in Education" has been created. This book explores a variety of aspects of gender perspectives in teacher education and offers suggestions for educators, decision-makers, and other stakeholders in the field of education. The journey starts with exploring the meaning of sex and gender, realising that these concepts are separate but connected. We build a solid foundation for meaningful conversation and action in support of gender equality by comprehending the complexities of gender-related concepts and terminology. The historical context of gender in education provides insight into both the challenges that have persisted over time and the advancements that have been made. We recognise the key figures and turning points in gender-inclusive education, honouring the people and movements that paved the way for improvement. This historical perspective inspires us to carry out the unfinished business because it serves as a reminder that we stand on the shoulders of those who have fought for equality. In-depth examination of gender perspectives in teacher education is done to show how they have changed over time. The methods and techniques used in teacher preparation programmes have evolved along with our understanding of gender. Given that teachers are at the forefront of influencing society, we understand the significance of incorporating gender perspectives into teacher training programmes. We enable them to be change agents by giving them the knowledge, abilities, and attitudes to oppose gender norms and biases. The importance of gender-inclusive pedagogy, which calls for incorporating gender perspectives across subjects, is emphasised in the book. Recognising the impact of learning resources and materials on students' perceptions and attitudes, we investigate strategies for promoting gender equality in them. In addition, we explore the critical task of developing welcoming, safe, and inclusive learning environments where each student is treated with respect and is given encouragement. Another major theme of this book is how gender education can empower students. We recognise the significance of promoting healthy gender identities and self-expression, addressing the pervasive problem of bullying and harassment based on gender, and assisting marginalised gender identities. In our work with LGBTQ+ students and families, we take into account the particular difficulties they might encounter and offer suggestions for fostering an accepting and affirming environment. We work to promote the rights and welfare of transgender and non-binary students in order to build a culture where everyone is accepted for who they are. Through this book, I want to show readers how teacher education can help create a future that is more equitable and brighter while also inspiring and empowering them to be change agents. As we discover the transformative power of teacher education and its potential to create a world where all people, regardless of their gender, can thrive and fulfil their true potential, let us set out on this journey towards gender equality in education.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents ideas on education, gender and intersectionality through a transdisciplinary frame by crossing disciplinary and methodological borders. Exploring the diversity of educational settings ranging from early childhood to adult education, it brings together scholars from various disciplines to discuss, deconstruct and problematize gender and education in relation to several themes in a comparative, intersectional, local, national, regional and international perspective. Each chapter approaches the topic in an intersectional and/or transnational manner and creates powerful gendered educational knowledge. Questions addressed in the book include: What are the challenges or barriers to gender-equal education? How can we understand the gaps between formal policies and educational practices? The chapters in the book illustrate how gender and education are relevant and needed concepts within the field of transdisciplinary research. The authors hail from a range of countries, such as Croatia, Indonesia, Turkey, UK, as well as the Nordic region, and they critically examine gender and education at all levels and in diverse sectors, and with varied lenses, such as neoliberalism in education, and the inclusion of newcomers and refugees. The work also critically investigates programs and pedagogical approaches, culture and values, knowledge and identity in teacher education. The book further addresses criticisms of Western and Anglophone bias around “white feminism” and the norm of white, male and heterosexual privilege.
