Gender Inclusive Learning Environments : A Theoretical Framework, Patricia Ann Noteboom

Graduate Research Papers

The purpose of this paper is to develop a theoretical framework based upon gender inclusiveness within classroom environments. Particular focus is given to the literature on college classrooms, student learning, and gender. Respectively, insights gained through this literature review are used to create a theoretical framework through which inclusiveness may be examined or constructed within classroom and group settings. A review of the literature is presented and informs the development of A Gender Inclusive Model for Learning Environments. Discussion of the model follows, with limitations and recommendations noted.
