Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores, as one of the priorities of the feminist agenda in the 21st century, feminist education and awareness in pre-service and in-service teacher training. Although feminism is constantly present in political discourse and social media, it is not examined sufficiently in the classroom. This situation means that students approach feminism through media culture, lacking the feminist knowledge necessary to teach disciplinary knowledge from the feminist perspective. Feminist theory, as a critical theory, provides teacher training based on the formation of critical-creative thinking and the resolute interpretation of the relevant social issues of the world in which we live. We understand the process of 'Feminist Critical Literacy' outlined here as a plan to find a feminist utopia, specifically, in the training of teachers from all disciplines, although more oriented towards the Social and Human Sciences and Artistic Education through the use of multimodality as a pedagogical approach. If future teachers do not develop feminist cognitive lenses, they will not be prepared to teach women's experiences and gender perspectives to their own students. This would then contribute to the endurance of an androcentric culture where there are no women's models that can serve as a stimulus or be historical references for female students. Our idea of Feminist Critical Literacy stems from feminist literary criticism and critical literacy. Feminist Critical Literacy is defined as the hermeneutical process of suspicion (mainstream culture) and of performative deconstruction of multimodal texts (didactic produsage), the purpose of which is to generate feminist consciousness in teachers from an intersectional perspective; through the acquisition of critical, creative, empathetic, aesthetic, and empowering competencies that contribute to the formation of a fair, equal, and equitable glocal citizenship.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The purpose of this research study was to explore the ways a fifth-grade teacher and her students engaged in critical literacy to address issues of gender inequity. Additionally, this study worked to examine the ways teacher and student understandings of critical literacy related to gender shift during a unit of study. An additional purpose was to determine what factors enhanced or inhibited the ability of the teacher to use critical literacy with her students to address issues of gender inequity. The theoretical framework used to guide this study drew from feminist theory and critical literacy. The study included one fifth-grade teacher and her class of 21 students, with an emphasis on six focus students from her classroom. A formative experiment approach was used to conduct this study. Multiple data sources were utilized including audio recording, fieldnotes, student and teacher interviews, a card and book sort activity, and a focus group session with the 6 focus students. A critical literacy framework based on the dimensions of critical literacy as described by Lewison, Flint, and Van Sluys (2002) was used to analyze the data related to both teacher and students. Findings indicated that the teacher took specific instructional approaches that allowed her to use critical literacy with students, which included: (a) use and selection of literacy resources, (b) engage students in critical conversations, (c) explicitly teach and model, and (d) merge standards with critical literacy practices. Students also engaged in critical literacy in specific ways, which included: (a) make personal and real world connections, (b) take risks, (c) engage in critical conversations, and (d) identify hidden messages. Findings also suggest that teacher and student understandings of critical literacy increased and understandings of gender shifted. Factors that enhanced the teacher's ability to engage in critical literacy were identified. These included: (a) the teacher's leadership qualities and (b) support from teammates/school personnel. Factors that inhibited the teacher's ability to engage in critical literacy were also identified. These included: (a) the teacher's learning curve related to critical literacy and gender, (b) time, and (c) issues of discomfort. Administration was a factor that both enhanced and inhibited the teacher's ability to use critical literacy to address issues of gender inequity with her students. The findings from this study have implications for research and practice. Specifically, additional research using formative experiments need to be conducted. Teachers need to work to foster critical conversations among students related to issues of gender inequity, create an environment where students feel safe to take risks when discussing such topics, and recognize the importance of helping students understand the ways hidden messages about gender in texts influence their thinking."--Abstract from author supplied metadata.
Download or read book Teaching Critical Thinking written by bell hooks and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-02-01 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Teaching Critical Thinking, renowned cultural critic and progressive educator bell hooks addresses some of the most compelling issues facing teachers in and out of the classroom today. In a series of short, accessible, and enlightening essays, hooks explores the confounding and sometimes controversial topics that teachers and students have urged her to address since the publication of the previous best-selling volumes in her Teaching series, Teaching to Transgress and Teaching Community. The issues are varied and broad, from whether meaningful teaching can take place in a large classroom setting to confronting issues of self-esteem. One professor, for example, asked how black female professors can maintain positive authority in a classroom without being seen through the lens of negative racist, sexist stereotypes. One teacher asked how to handle tears in the classroom, while another wanted to know how to use humor as a tool for learning. Addressing questions of race, gender, and class in this work, hooks discusses the complex balance that allows us to teach, value, and learn from works written by racist and sexist authors. Highlighting the importance of reading, she insists on the primacy of free speech, a democratic education of literacy. Throughout these essays, she celebrates the transformative power of critical thinking. This is provocative, powerful, and joyful intellectual work. It is a must read for anyone who is at all interested in education today.
Download or read book Making a Difference written by Gayle Green and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-07-24 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Feminist scholarship employs gender as a fundamental organizing category of human experience, holding two related premises: men and women have different perceptions or experiences in the same contexts, the male perspective having been dominant in fields of knowledge; and that gender is not a natural fact but a social construct, a subject to study in any humanistic discipline. This challenging collection of essays by prominent feminist literary critics offers a comprehensive introduction to modes of critical practice being used to trace the construction of gender in literature. The collection provides an invaluable overview of current femionist critical thinking. Its essays address a wide range of topics: the rerlevance of gender scholarship in the social sciences to literary criticism; the tradition of women's literature and its relation to the canon; the politics of language; French theories of the feminine; psychoanalysis and feminism; feminist criticism of writing by lesbians and black women; the relationship between female subjectivity, class, and sexuality; feminist readings of the canon.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the late 1960s and early 1970s, ordinary women affiliated with the women's movement were responsible for a veritable explosion of periodicals, poetry, and manifestos, as well as performances designed to support "do-it-yourself" education and consciousness-raising. Kathryn Thoms Flannery discusses this outpouring and the group education, brainstorming, and creative activism it fostered as the manifestation of a feminist literacy quite separate from women's studies programs at universities or the large-scale political workings of second-wave feminism. Seeking to break down traditional barriers such as the dichotomies of writer/reader or student/teacher, these new works also forged polemical alternatives to the forms of argumentation traditionally used to silence women, creating a space for fresh voices. Feminist Literacies explores these truly radical feminist literary practices and pedagogies that flourished during a brief era of volatility and hope.

This book was released on 2013-10-08 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Until now, there has been no systematic analysis or review of the research on gender and literacy. With all the media attention and research surveys surrounding gender bias and the inequities that continue to flourish in education, a synthesis of the research studies was needed to raise awareness of gender issues in learning and literacy, to provide successful interventions and recommendations to educators, and to point out the direction for future inquiries by examining the unanswered questions of the existing research. For the convenience of readers, the studies are organized by genre: gender and discussion, reading, writing, electronic text, and literacy autobiography.
