Gender and the curriculum

This week, we are to review the first assignement and begin research.The purpouse of this first assignment is to create a critical summary. I have selected to do reasearch about “Gender and the curriculum”. I believe that both genders are not treated the same as they should be treated the same way others treat them it shouldnt matter if you are a girl or a boy you should be treated equally. They should be treated equally in varoius types of the curriculum. Gender inequality it happens more in PE. In the curriculum they dont really talk about gender, in one of my classes i’m taking we watch a video and the little childern were talking about gender but what caught my eye in the video was a little boy who yelled out non bionairy and to me it surprised me beacuse you would think that a little kindergarten would not know what non bionary was.

The Next steps that i will be taking are

  • Why are men and women not treated the same way in the curriculum?
  • Why is gender important to teach in the curriculum?
  • Do others have the same beliefts as others about gender and the curriculum?
