In this paper, I lay the foundation for a broader discussion of the impact of sexual harassment on the gender composition of college majors. First, I focus on the rates of sexual harassment experienced by different groups of students and how these disparities can be understood through the framework of intersectionality. In the next paper, I will…

No existing literature centers Black women college students (BWCS) who are targeted yet absent the discourse on anti-black incidents at the intersection of gender. Using a 42-case database, we highlight how BWCS are targeted with hate, discuss gender-based racial trauma fueled by these incidents, and share recommendations for higher education.

Females are underrepresented in construction and trades, including welding. Studies have shown that female students often face gender-associated challenges due to being enrolled in male-dominated education programs. Similarly, some female teachers in male-dominated disciplines face gender-associated challenges. Yet, little is known if such gender…

Despite the massive global scale of gender-based violence, little attention has been given to its significance in mediating student-victim-survivors' experiences of higher education. We draw on and extend recent feminist theorizations of trauma as 'durational' to consider the significance of gender-based violence as a society-wide problem yet also…

This article aims to study machine learning models to determine their performance in classifying students by gender based on their perception of complex thinking competency.

Analyzing gender inequalities when teaching political science can be an opportunity. Making inequalities visible in the classroom using students' personal experiences can help teachers generate co-responsible practices which are necessary in a context where group work is increasingly important. Moreover, revealing gender inequalities through the…

Adult female learners are constantly juggling roles amidst a chilly climate plagued by gendered stereotypes and their implications. Bronfenbrenner's interactive development model, encompassing the four components of process, person, context, and time, provides a baseline to understand how interactions between family, school, and work impact adult…

[This paper is part of the "Focused Collection on Instructional Labs: Improving Traditions and New Directions."] Recent studies provide evidence that social constructivist pedagogical methods such as active learning, interactive engagement, and inquiry-based learning, while pedagogically more effective, can enable inequities in the…

Student satisfaction surveys are widely accepted for measuring the quality of students' overall experience with the received teaching and informing the design of improvements in higher education. However, several studies have shown that these surveys have biases that may lead to discrimination or unfair decisions against female academics. Yet it…
