Topik: Researching Teaching on Gender; Social Work Education; Action Research Fulltext: 692992__750762598.pdf (849.99KB) Isi artikel A group of women lecturers in a university department of social work were concerned that perspectives on gender needed more prominence as their department adopted a new problem-based teaching style. This paper describes a small-scale research study of the process of introducing pilot learning materials on gender issues. Lecturers identified their need to develop their understanding of gender issues and work on this together, but this was hampered by competition from other equality issues on the timetable. Although there was already some teaching on gender, it was not always recognised as such. The pilot of learning materials on gender revealed conflicting views from male colleagues as to whether it was legitimate for the focus to be on women's experience, and for all small group learning to be facilitated by women. This was resolved by having a male facilitator for a separate men's group. I suggest that the process of introducing separate learning groups for men and women students undermined a need for women in the staff group to develop their own perspectives before working together with their male colleagues on gender issues. Practitioner research on teaching of equality issues can be invaluable in giving teachers opportunities to articulate their more tentative thinking in these areas.
