Abstract | Teachers are responsible for inclusive teaching about gender and addressing gender bias through teaching practices. In this Unit Professor Jayne Osgood supports early career teachers to examine ideas about gender in childhood. The unit starts with background information about gender, followed by a description of ways in which restrictive ideas and practices concerning gender in school have come about and how, by engaging in critical reflection on (often unacknowledged) personal prejudices, ideas about gender in childhood can be reappraised. Finally, some practical approaches to pursue more inclusive practices to achieve improved gender equity in primary school are discussed. |
