Martino, Wayne J. – Multicultural Education Review, 2015
This article provides a critical analysis of the political significance of role modelling as it relates to envisaging a critical multicultural approach to educational reform.

Tillapaugh, Daniel – Canadian Journal of Higher Education, 2016
This exploratory comparative study examines the meaning-making experiences of six sexual minority males attending college or university in Canada or the United States.

Jubas, Kaela – Canadian Journal of Educational Administration and Policy, 2015
This paper outlines a preliminary document analysis of the intersection of two prominent discourses in the Western public academy: equity and internationalization. Particular dilemmas arise for people who self-identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgender (LGBT). These dilemmas, I propose, exemplify impacts of the neoliberal compulsion to let…

Kitchen, Julian; Bellini, Christine – Canadian Journal of Educational Administration and Policy, 2013
Gay-straight alliances (GSAs) have become widespread in Ontario schools and, starting in 2012, all schools are required to permit students to form GSAs. While American research suggests that GSAs have a positive impact on school safety and inclusion, there is little research on the impact of GSAs in Canadian schools. This study, based on a survey…

This paper offers an examination of gay-straight alliance (GSA) members' engagement with sex education, sexual health, and prejudice and discrimination in Canadian public high schools.

Goldstein, Tara – Teaching Education, 2014
While the call for teacher education students to learn about their students' family and community lives remains urgent and compelling, educating teachers about the Other is tricky business. In this article I discuss the use of two performed ethnographies, "Harriet's House" and "Ana's Shadow," to provide opportunities for…

Mehra, Bharat; Tidwell, William Travis – Journal of Education for Library and Information Science, 2014
The article explores the information landscape (i.e., infoscape) of library and information science (LIS) courses for intersections of health-gender and health-sexual orientation topics, concerns, and issues. This research was considered important because health information support services essential in today's society must include marginalized…

Anderson, James – Journal of LGBT Youth, 2014
This article reviews Canadian administrative law regarding homophobic bullying and school board decision making. Depending on the provincial legislation, school boards either have a mandatory or a discretionary duty to provide queer students with a safe learning environment. However, Canadian case law has arguably limited that discretion. Recent…

This study explored current master's of social work student (n = 11) and recent graduate (n = 7) reflections on…

MacDonnell, Judith A. – Journal of Invitational Theory and Practice, 2014
Lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) people have historically, and continue today to encounter barriers to accessing health services. This has been attributed to the well-documented heterosexism, homophobia, biphobia, and transphobia that shape all health and social institutions. In this paper, invitational theory offers insight into the…

Schmidt, Sandra J. – Equity & Excellence in Education, 2014
Same-sex marriage is part of a global civil rights struggle for LGBQ rights. How this movement is framed, advanced, and critiqued across the globe can be linked to how young people in schools are prepared to deliberate social issues in the political sphere. This article examines national history books as cultural artifacts that present what is…
