Gender Bias in Teacher Education Texts: New (and Old) Lessons.
Overview & Synopsis
Investigated the treatment of gender and gender bias in recent teacher education textbooks. Although most texts included some coverage of gender issues and the role and contribution of women, coverage was minimal and not always positive. Foundations texts provided about 7 percent of content to gender issues, and methods texts averaged about 1 percent. Nonetheless, the texts had a generally supportive tone for the idea of gender fairness in education. (SM)
