A BETTER TOMORROW: TRANSFORMING THE CLASSROOM THROUGH FEMINIST PEDAGOGY

Produced by Women's and Gender Studies at the University of Saskatchewan

"Feminist teachers are already in the vanguard of educators who know how to approach the twenty-first century," says distinguished Canadian feminist pedagogue, Andrea Lebowitz. "We have a lot to teach other teachers as we all try to relearn the education process." The first step in teaching others about feminist pedagogy is to demystify it--which is the task undertaken by Directors Patricia L. Williams and Linda Epstein. Eminently accessible, the program introduces educators to feminist teaching pr actices and the philosophy that underpins them. Featured are ten Canadian feminist educators from across the disciplinary spectrum, from Mathematics through Sociology to English Studies.

This program will be of interest to primary, secondary, and post-secondary teachers in training, as well as experienced educators eager to enhance their effectiveness in the classroom through the incorporation of feminist teaching strategies. Feminist teachers themselves will find it helpful for consolidating their pedagogical principles and practices.
