Murray, Paula; Lord, Rhiannon; Lorimer, Ross – Sport, Education and Society, 2022

Stephanie Wescott; Steven Roberts; Xuenan Zhao – Gender and Education, 2024
There is growing visibility of online 'manfluencers' who espouse extreme masculine ideals and share them with their audiences of boys and young men. Taking this phenomenon as a launch-pad, we join the tradition of research that exposes sexism in schools and theorizes girls and women's experiences of working within and against masculine hegemony.…

Wolfe, Melissa Joy – Gender and Education, 2022
This paper is a making, a cartography that maps gender equity policy in Australian education.

Email exchanges were used as a form of narrative enquiry that provided opportunity and space…
