Course Description:
The course explores how gender and sexuality are conceptualized, practiced, protected, and policed in K-12 schools in the United States, with some attention to international and out-of-school contexts. While typically, we think about gender, sexuality, race, and class as standalone identities, in this class we will examine how they intersect and shape the experiences of youth. The course will start with a theoretical section focused on how gender and sexuality have been constructed in the United States. Students will develop an intersectional approach to understanding different educational experiences. The remaining sections will focus on contemporary literature that centers educational research, policies, and practices. Through this course students will explore how different educational environments and experiences differently socialize students. |
