Boys and Girls in the Primary Classroom, Paperback / softback Book

Boys and Girls in the Primary Classroom Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

This book illustrates how gender equity (and inequality) occurs in primary classrooms.

It uses the findings of current research to provide teachers with recommendations for promoting equity amongst boys and girls. Each contributor summarizes recent research in the area of specialization before looking specifically at issues relevant to primary teaching and learning.

The areas of the primary school covered include the National Curriculum subjects of literacy, numeracy and science, and broader topics such as working with boys, children with special educational needs, primary/secondary transition, playground cultures and children's construction of gender identities. The book uses classroom-based research to provide accessible accounts of investigations into gender and primary schooling.

At the same time, it offers a critique of the whole drive towards 'evidence based' research.

Boys and Girls in the Primary Classroom is aimed particularly at primary teachers and student teachers although the research will be of interest to academics and undergraduate students.
