The Gendered Transaction of Whiteness
This book considers the causes and effects of an education field that remains white and gendered and critically examines how the race-gendered power afforded to white women in educational spaces is transacted through instructional practices and interpersonal interactions. White women occupy a complex position in society within systems of white supremacy and patriarchy, participating as both oppressors and oppressed. Emphasizing the consequences of whiteness for educational professionals and students of all racial identities, the chapters in this book offer strategies for identifying and moving beyond the gendered transaction of whiteness, including what white women can do instead and how all educators can work toward transformative antiracist education.
Critical Whiteness Praxis in Higher Education
College and university administrators are increasingly called to confront the deeply entrenched racial inequities in higher education. To do so, corresponding attention must be given to historical and contemporary manifestations of whiteness in higher education and student affairs.This book bridges theoretical and practical considerations regarding the ways whiteness functions to underwrite racially hostile and unwelcoming campus communities for People of Color, all the while upholding the interests and values of white students, faculty, and staff.While higher education scholars and practitioners have long explored the role of race and racism in college and university contexts, rarely have t...

Women and Leadership in Higher Education During Global Crises
Women leaders and the COVID-19 pandemic are currently trending in the news. Major news outlets are all offering their positive opinions on how world-wide women leaders have addressed the crisis and reassured their people. While this sort of press coverage is certainly uplifting, little to no research has been conducted to investigate the effectiveness of women’s leadership decisions and strategies in these difficult times. In concert with these global struggles resulting from the pandemic are the challenges faced by higher education. Many colleges and universities have all but shuttered their doors and are conducting instruction, student support, and day-to-day business almost completely o...

Bildungskontexte
Gemäß dem meritokratischen Prinzip sollte alleine die Leistung eines Schülers, gemessen u.a. durch Schulnoten oder Bildungsempfehlungen, dessen Bildungschancen bestimmen. Jedoch weist die empirische Bildungsforschung darauf hin, dass das deutsche Bildungssystem diesem Anspruch bei weitem und bis heute nicht gerecht wird. So belegen zahlreiche Studien ausgeprägte Ungleichheiten der Bildungschancen nach sozialer und ethnischer Herkunft sowie nach Geschlecht und Region. Dabei gehen die angesprochenen empirischen Analysen (und die jeweils zugrunde liegenden theoretischen Konzepte) jedoch implizit häufig davon aus, dass alleine individuelle Determinanten und Ressourcen des Elternhauses für ...
Ethnische Einbettung und schulischer Erfolg
Melanie Olczyk untersucht die Bedeutung (eigen-)ethnischer Bezüge für den Bildungserwerb von Kindern und Jugendlichen mit Zuwanderungshintergrund. Dazu führt sie theoretische Überlegungen zusammen, diskutiert die vorliegenden empirischen Befunde und unterzieht die zentralen Argumente anschließend einer empirischen Prüfung auf Grundlage von Daten des Nationalen Bildungspanels (NEPS) und des Sozio-oekonomischen Panels (SOEP). Verschiedene Formen der ethnischen Einbettung erweisen sich dabei als insgesamt unbedeutend für den schulischen Erfolg in der Sekundarstufe I, während die vorherrschenden Leistungsorientierungen und -ansprüche sowie die gesprochene Sprache im Umfeld relevant sind. Die Effekte der Orientierungen und Ressourcen sind allerdings weitgehend unabhängig von der ethnischen Herkunft im Umfeld.
