Gender awareness ; Gender sensitization
Gender sensitivity encompasses the ability (skills, knowledge, and attitudes) to acknowledge and make existing gender differences, issues, and inequalities visible (UNIFEM 2007 ). This capacity is reflected through an awareness applied to everyday life situations, policies, projects, institutions, and a variety of contexts. It includes an understanding of how gender roles have been socially constructed, and how those social constructions often presuppose the existence of inequalities or unfair distribution of opportunities (UNIFEM 2007 ). Gender sensitivity incorporates a cross-cultural analysis to raise awareness of obstacles for gender equality and focuses on how inequalities take place on the grounds of gender. It can also be read as a part within an awareness spectrum, ranging from gender negative to gender transformative (Christodoulou 2005 ; Zobnina 2009 ). Within this spectrum, gender sensitivity lies in the middle, between...

A gender-responsive classroom needs a gender-sensitive teacher. This entails informing teachers to gender issues and reshaping their practices to reject gender stereotypes. In an attempt to address this concern, this study examined the pedagogical practices and teaching effectiveness of the faculty members in one state university in Batangas Province, Philippines. By employing the correlational type of descriptive research with a modified questionnaire and secondary data, this study found out that the faculty members highly integrate gender in delivery of the subject matter, organization of the learning experience, design of didactics strategies and selection of the learning evaluation. Further, this study also revealed that majority of the respondents obtained a very satisfactory rating on performance evaluation for teaching effectiveness. Significantly, there exists a relationship between the respondents’ gender sensitive pedagogical practices and their teaching effectiveness. Con...

A Comparative Framework of Gender Sensitive Factors affecting Gender Sensitivity in Schools of Delhi
Dr. Bushra Sumaiya
Gender sensitisation is spreading the wings of awareness and altering the behaviour of the individuals towards the gender. It is a revolutionary tool that can create gender awareness by eradicating the stereotypical thinking and orthodox practice of the society. Education is a weapon through which the perception and attitude can be modified. It is essential to analyse the perception of the students. Training programs should be conducted to forge the perception of the student towards gender sensitisation. For this purpose a sample size of 120 respondents were collected from class IX students of Private and government CBSE affiliated schools of Delhi. For this study Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) statistical technique was used. AMOS 23.0 version was used to conduct CFA. This manuscript sheds light on a comparative study of the gender sensitive factors that affects class IX students of private and government CBSE affiliated schools of Delhi. It was analysed that Gender Sensitive Management, Gender Inclusive Participatory learning, Gender Sensitive Stakeholders, Gender Impartial Behavior and Gender Inclusive Capacity Building factors are high factors affecting gender sensitivity in both private and government CBSE affiliated schools. These are the keen factors which require attention while conducting training program on gender sensitisation.

Education for Women"s Equality states: "The National Education System will play a positive, dominant role in the empowerment and strengthening of women. It will foster the expansion of new values through redesigned curricula, textbooks, the training and orientation of teachers, decision-makers and administrators, and the active involvement of educational institutions. The removal of women"s illiteracy and obstacles inhibiting their access to, and retention in, elementary education will receive overriding priority." What happens in educational circumstances is at all times exclusive because it is reliant on the intercommunication between teacher and students. The condition explicitly includes time/space situation. The rationale of using gender cognizant pedagogical models in the classroom is to motivate self-governing dialogues and make powerful the students through this process. In general, classroom dialogue is based on the controlling role the teachers represen...

This article explores students, teachers, and principal’s opinion on the balance of gender in our schools, its implication on student achievement, attitude and behavior. Previous studies on gender imbalance have focused primarily on the factors precipitating the mass exodus of male teacher to other impressive jobs and little research has been undertaken to understand the implication of this imbalance on students achievement, attitude and behavior or male involvement in the prevention of this negative consequences. This study aimed to explore men’s and female’s views on this imbalance and what the student thinks about it Focus group discussions with six groups’ male, female and students of two schools within awka metropolis were conducted. The discussions were transcribed and coded for the construction of a positional map on gender imbalance at schools and its negative consequences Social, economic and cultural changes have played a crucial role in transforming the role of men and women in our society. Three different positions of masculinity with certain beliefs on the gender order and acceptance of balance within our school were identified: the traditionalist, the pragmatist, and the egalitarian. The traditionalist had the highest acceptance as a tool to uphold the superior position of men within our school, while the pragmatist viewed balance as undesirable but sometimes needed. The egalitarian did not see any reason for the imbalance because they believed that men and women are equal and complementary to each other. While lack of male teachers is a recurrent theme in educational discussion, widely agreed among teachers, gender did appear to be relevant when young person’s talked about teachers. They discussed being more authoritarian and more focused in the area of discipline and more patient than the females. They also appreciate teachers, irrespective of gender, who can teach and are friendly and relaxed, but who nevertheless keep order and make sure that students work. Male teachers who teach popular, non-academic subjects were often favored by boys, but so were female teachers of academic subjects and increasingly as time went on. The interviews suggest that students do need male teachers to act as ‘male models’ especially in the foundation school which is the elementary. The female teachers also suggested that male teachers should be sensitive in relationships with female students. When questioned explicitly, most of the interviewers and focus group discussion participants did regard lack of male teachers as a major problem if not well handled could be disastrous to the children and the society at large Adaptation to social and cultural changes combined with lack of exposures to contextual and progressive teachings has led to the formation of three different positions of masculinity among the population in this study. Each position has certain beliefs regarding the gender balance and its importance in our school. Keywords: gender imbalance, attitude, Positional map, academic performance, Awka, Anambra state,

The pilot study on the implementation of education at Junior High Schools (SMP) revealed that gender bias is still present in various aspects. In the learning, it was found that some materials were not gender responsive, learning interaction sometimes caused one of the parties to be discriminated, and the teacher’s and students’ sentences contained stereotypes. One of the subjects which has the potential for and contributes to gender bias is Social Sciences (IPS). As a subject which correlates with the practices of social life, Social Sciences reflects the gender bias as an existing reality. Other subjects which are potential for gender bias are Natural Sciences, Arts and Cultural Arts and Crafts, and Language. In Natural Sciences and crafts, the bias is often found the existence of interaction. In the Natural Science practicum class, which is correlated with animals, there is often a higher ratio of male to female students. On the other hand, on the practice of crafting class, fema...
