Gender Stereotypes and Education

- Repeated exposure to these stereotypes can shape individual preferences and career paths.

Roles and Stereotypes
- Gender stereotypes are sets of ideas, opinions, or images used to understand men's and women's behavior.
- These stereotypes define roles based on sex and set social expectations for men and women, potentially leading to inequality and discrimination.
- Gender stereotypes affect subject choices at school and societal expectations regarding roles and professions.
Sex and Gender
- Gender refers to socially constructed characteristics of people, including norms, behaviors, and relationships. It varies across societies and time periods..
- Gender is intertwined with, but distinct from, biological sex.
- Gender identity relates to a person's internal experience of gender (which might or might not match biological sex).
- Gender inequalities are often interconnected with other forms of social discrimination. Intersectionality is a framework that considers these intertwined issues.
Gender Socialization
- Societies establish links between each biological sex and a gender identity.
- Educational institutions including peers and the media actively transmit societal expectations and gender roles.
- Gender performativity, a concept proposed by Judith Butler, refers to the way people act to conform to social expectations of their gender and is a social performance.
Gender and Education
- Historically, education systems have reproduced patriarchal structures, limiting the education accessible to individuals in subordinate roles.
- Even modern education systems may perpetuate gender inequalities through differentiated subject selections, enrollment patterns, or opportunities.
- Inequality in education can influence future career paths and economic opportunities.
- Recent research shows that the male/female participation and completion rates are getting smaller.
Types of Female Schooling
- Schools can employ segregated, mixed, or co-educational models.
Coeducation Definition
- Coeducation is the educational method based on gender equality, aiming to eliminate power imbalances, and recognize the contributions of both men and women in varied settings.
Addressing Gender Stereotypes in Education
- Strategies for promoting gender equality in education are crucial to eliminate gender stereotypes which may affect students' choices regarding subjects and later life decisions.
Teacher Bias in Education
- Data analyses reveal biases in teacher behavior, affecting student performance, gender enrollment, and career choices.
Intersectionality Continued
- Intersectionality is a framework that explores how different aspects of a person's identity (e.g., gender, race, class) interact to create unique experiences of discrimination and privilege..
- Aspects like sexual orientation, physical abilities, or socioeconomic status can influence and intersect with gender to create complex situations of privilege and marginalization.
