Book Comparative Analysis of Feminism Related Ideologies among Students in Single Sex and Coeducational Institutions

Download or read book Comparative Analysis of Feminism Related Ideologies among Students in Single Sex and Coeducational Institutions written by IJIP.In and published by RED'SHINE Publication. Inc. This book was released on 2016-06-30 with total page 49 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of the study was to dichotomously study the differences in feminism perspectives, support for feminism, and feminist self-identification between students in single-sex and students in co-educational higher learning institutions, with special emphasis on students with chronic single-sex/coed schooling and students with discontinuous single-sex/coed schooling. For this, a web-based survey questionnaire was administered on a sample of 100 undergraduates and graduates (age group 18-23) studying in higher learning institutions all over India. The survey questionnaire included three feminism scales: the liberal, radical, socialist and women of color/womanist subscales of Feminist Perspectives Scale (Henley, et. al., 1998) to study perspectives on feminism, the 11-item short form of the Liberal Feminist Attitude and Ideology Scale (LFAIS) by Morgan (1996) to study support for feminism, and a closed-ended question “To what extent do you consider yourself a feminist?” from Morgan (1996) to measure feminist self-identification. The findings revealed that: 1)Female students in single-sex higher learning institutions show stronger support for feminism, stronger positions on radical perspective of feminism, and higher feminist self-identification than students in coed higher learning institutions, 2)Students in chronic and discontinuous single-sex schooling show stronger support for feminism than students with chronic coed schooling, 3)Students in chronic single-sex schooling have higher feminist self-identification than students in discontinuous co-ed. The study has implications for future research on correlates of feminist ideologies in college students as well as in framing public policies on education with respect to single-sex and co-ed institutions.

Book excerpt: Current research on the progress of female students in U.S. public schools suggests that efforts have not sufficiently addressed concerns such as academic under-achievement in the areas of math and science, lower self-esteem from the advent of early adolescence, and vulnerability to sexual harassment. Despite Title IX, some educators have turned to the creation of single-sex classes and programs for female students in order to better address these critical issues.

Book Women s Colleges and Universities in a Global Context

Download or read book Women s Colleges and Universities in a Global Context written by Kristen A. Renn and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2014-10-13 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A pathbreaking study of the critical role women’s institutions play in global higher education. Educating girls and women is a powerful route to improving societies worldwide. When women receive more education, literacy rates in children rise, maternal and infant death rates drop, and women enjoy an increased earning capacity. Yet in parts of the developing world, women’s education is considered a low priority at best and a dangerous countercultural activity at worst. In Europe and North America, the number of women’s colleges is shrinking—yet women-only institutions are growing in size and number in many other regions of the world, where they provide access to female students who are prevented for legal, cultural, religious, or practical reasons from attending coeducational universities. Women’s Colleges and Universities in a Global Context is the first book to provide a comprehensive comparative analysis of the increasing significance of single-sex higher education institutions for women around the world. Based on Kristen A. Renn’s on-site study of thirteen women’s colleges and universities in ten different countries—Australia, Canada, China, India, Italy, Japan, Kenya, South Korea, the United Arab Emirates, and the United Kingdom—this timely and provocative volume combines interviews of campus leaders, faculty, and students with extensive online and archival research. Renn provides an overview of each country’s political, economic, and educational situation, then explores the theoretical and practical themes she uncovers in their educational institutions for women. In the end, this volume addresses not only the role of women’s colleges in their own countries but also what these institutions can teach us that would benefit higher education worldwide.

  • Publisher : Oxford University Press
  • Release : 2022-01-13
  • ISBN : 0192843168
  • Pages : 244 pages

Download or read book Piety and Privilege written by Tom O'Donoghue and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2022-01-13 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For centuries, the Catholic Church around the world insisted it had a right to provide and organize its own schools. It decreed also that while nation states could lay down standards for secular curricula, pedagogy, and accommodation, Catholic parents should send their children to Catholic schools and be able to do so without suffering undue financial disadvantage. Thus, from the Pope down, the Church expressed deep opposition to increasing state intervention in schooling, especially during the nineteenth century. By the end of the 1920s however, it was satisfied with the school system in only a small number of countries. Ireland was one of those. There, the majority of primary and secondary schools were Catholic schools. The State left their management in the hands of clerics while simultaneously accepting financial responsibility for maintenance and teachers' salaries. During the period 1922-1967, the Church, unhindered by the State, promoted within the schools' practices aimed at 'the salvation of souls' and at the reproduction of a loyal middle class and clerics. The State supported that arrangement with the Church also acting on its behalf in aiming to produce a literate and numerate citizenry, in pursuing nation building, and in ensuring the preparation of an adequate number of secondary school graduates to address the needs of the public service and the professions. All of that took place at a financial cost much lower than the provision of a totally State-funded system of schooling would have entailed. Piety and Privilege seeks to understand the dynamic between Church and State through the lens of the twentieth century Irish education system.
