Gender Consciousness and Privilege
Develops a new framework for working in schools that helps educators make informed decisions about change at individual, classroom, curricular and school levels on behalf of gender equity. Addresses the issue of understanding the impact of education on the two sexes, and looks at responsibility for creating gender-fair environments, organising work and creating environments for learning. The book draws on a two-year study into the role that gender played as three Catholic high schools prepared to move from single sex to coeducation. It does not weigh the advantages of single sex against coeducative approaches, but studies gender in a setting where the particpants' consciousness of gender issues was heightened: faculty and administration were formally and informally discussing gender concepts and students were talking about male and female issues. The book shows that the combination of leadership, staff and curricular awareness, and an understanding of gender fair and gender affirmative practices can serve to improve institutional effectiveness and lead to higher levels of student achievement.
The Nazis' Literary Grandfather
From 1900 to his death in 1945, Adolf Bartels reigned as the most notorious anti-Semitic literary critic in Germany. Bartels all but single-handedly popularized the radical nationalist and racist view of culture central to Nazi ideology. During the Weimar Republic, Bartels helped transform the fledgling National Socialist movement into the major force in German politics. Throughout his life, representatives of every political persuasion - from Gerhart Hauptmann to Adolf Hitler - recognized his importance and influence, even when they questioned his sanity. This biography of Adolf Bartels (1862-1945) not only serves as a centerpiece for detailing nearly a century of German literary, cultural, and political history, but also relates an engrossing personal narrative.
The Journal of Economic Perspectives
This journal attempts to fill a gap between the general-interest press and other academic economics journals. Its articles relate to active lines of economics research, economic analysis of public policy issues, state-of-the-art economic thinking, and directions for future research. It also aims to provide material for classroom use, and to address issues relating to the economics profession.
Gender in Policy and Practice
This book exposes the complexity of single-sex schooling, and sheds new light on how gender operates in policy and practice in education. The essays collected in this volume cover a wide range of institutions, including K-12 and higher education, public and private schools, and schools in the US and beyond. Detailing the educational experiences of both young men and women, this collection examines how schooling shapes-and is shaped by- the social construction of gender in history and in contemporary society.

Mädchen in der Schule
Die AutorInnen untersuchen die Erfahrungen von Mädchen und jungen Frauen mit ihren Bildungswegen und alltäglichen Bildungsorten. Dabei wird zum einen auf monoedukative Sozialisationskontexte in Schulen und Universitäten eingegangen und zum anderen in den Blick genommen, dass in monoedukativen sowie in koedukativen Lernkontexten neben Geschlecht andere Heterogenitätsdimensionen – wie soziale und kulturelle Herkunft – eine entscheidende Rolle spielen. Im Gegensatz zur aktuellen wissenschaftlichen Fokussierung auf Jungen bzw. junge Männer und deren mangelnden Bildungserfolg konzentriert sich das Buch dezidiert auf aktuelle empirische Studien über Mädchen und junge Frauen in der Adoleszenz. Die Reihe „Weibliche Adoleszenz und Schule“ befasst sich mit einschlägigen Forschungen aus diesem Kontext. Wichtig für ErziehungswissenschaftlerInnen, Frauen- und GeschlechterforscherInnen, LehrerInnen und alle, die mit Schul- und Bildungspolitik befasst sind. Aus dem Inhalt: Weibliche Adoleszenz und Schule Koedukation und Monoedukation Heterogenität, Schule und Beruf
