    Extractions: Why Gender Tree In our culture we tend to think in terms of a dichotomy when we think of gender, Female or Male. I was in a really boring meeting one day and realized I am as guilty of this sort of thinking, even thought I am “gender variant”. I realized we need a new model that was three dimensional, and visualized a tree with its almost infinite branchings. The body of Christ is divided all too often, because of our natural tendency to be uncomfortable with people who are different. This writing, and the pages that follow, are an attempt to both educate and challenge Christian believers to “Test everything, [and] hold on to the good” in obedience to 1 Thess. 5: 21 (NIV). To lay aside their learned reaction to such individuals, and take an honest look at the scriptures, and their own hearts. By the grace of God you are what you are.

However, taking a ‘gender-neutral’ approach to risk assessment and prevention can result in risks to female workers being underestimated or even ignored altogether. When we think about hazards at work, we are more likely to think of men working in high accident risk areas such as a building site or a fishing vessel than of women working in health and social care or in new areas such as call centres. A careful examination of real work circumstances shows that both women and men can face significant risks at work. In addition, making jobs easier for women will make them easier for men too. So it is important to include gender issues in workplace risk assessments, and ‘mainstreaming’ gender issues into risk prevention is now an objective of the European Community. Table shows some examples of hazards and risks found in female-dominated work areas.

    Extractions: Source: ERIC Clearinghouse on Reading English and Communication Bloomington IN. Gender Issues in the Language Arts Classroom. ERIC Digest. THIS DIGEST WAS CREATED BY ERIC, THE EDUCATIONAL RESOURCES INFORMATION CENTER. FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT ERIC, CONTACT ACCESS ERIC 1-800-LET-ERIC A growing volume of literature suggests that gender issues underlie numerous classroom activities. For example, McAuliffe (1994) and Kamler (1993) found that the portrayal of characters in children's writing often reflects gender stereotypes. In addition, individual beliefs about the dominance or subordination of particular genders frequently determine whose ideas are heard or ignored in student discussions (Evans, 1996), and unfacilitated group discussions may therefore reinforce gender stereotypes among students (Alvermann et al., 1996a). Thus, without some intervention, unstructured language-learning situations may actually encourage children to reproduce gender stereotypes (Purcell-Gates, 1993). What is the role of the teacher in addressing such problems? The literature suggests that teachers have differing views of the position they should take in this matter. The different positions reflect individual beliefs about gender roles and about the role that teachers should play in children's lives. This Digest provides an overview of various perspectives on the teacher's role in addressing gender-related issues in the classroom.

    http://www.sdnp.org.mw/gender/
    
    Extractions: Welcome to the Malawi SDNP Gender Pages. GENDER is a concept which is used to refer to women and men. This term is used to convey the fact that in most cases, the social distinctions between men and women; for example the postions they play and the social status they have are socially contructed and allocated. Gender is distinguished from sex, which is biologically determined. Because "gender" is socially contructed, it is affected by many factors and therefore, it varies in time, place and context. The Malawi SDNP Gender Pages provide information on gender policy, issues and activities in Malawi.

    Extractions: Popular culture offers little out-of-school support for children's mathematical learning, with one potential exceptioncomputer games. While many of the more recent games purport to be"educational", and to "promote children's mathematical learning", there is little research to support these claims. How do children learn significant mathematics from computer games? What are the characteristics of games, and of game-playing contexts, that interact with learning? Why are the children who play electronic games predominantly male? How might we understand and address this out-of- school inequity in girls'and boys' exposure to technology and mathematics? This project will examine the intersection of gaming, mathematics knowledge, and gender, with particular attention to differences in the ways girls and boys engage in computer games that involve mathematical thinking. The eventual goal of the project is to understand enough about the interactions among these three fields to influence the design of computer games so that they will be at least as appealing to girls as to boys.

57. GTN - Gender Issues
    gender issues and International Trade. Still, there exists the normative question of whether gender issues should be explicitly on the WTO s agenda.  
    http://www.cid.harvard.edu/cidtrade/site/gender.html
    
    Extractions: Data Sources Over the past few decades there has been increasing attention paid to the gender dimensions of poverty and development. More recently - essentially the last five to 10 years - academics, NGOs and international organizations have begun to pay close attention to the gender dimensions of international trade regimes, liberalization, and the impact of trade regulations and WTO decisions. More often than not, consideration of the gender dimensions of trade and other development issues means focusing on the impact on women. As Amartya Sen, Martha Nussbaum and others have emphasized, women tend to be disproportionately poor and disadvantaged in developing countries.[ ] In addition, their ownership, control, and access to economic resources, assets and markets are often limited by social norms. Moreover, they also tend to work in specific sectors of the economy - e.g., textiles, the informal sector, and agriculture. Many of the trade issues discussed by the WTO today, therefore, have differential gender impacts through the sectors of the economy they affect. Indeed, some have referred to some countries' export-led growth successes as female-led, as most of the workers in export-processing zones tend to be female. For instance, existing research indicates that "…on average, greater trade openness is associated with increases in women's share of paid employment."[
