Gender, Society and Education is an important area of study that explores how gender identities and roles are constructed within the social and cultural framework, and how these constructions affect access to and experiences in education. It examines how social institutions like family, media, religion, and the education system itself contribute to reinforcing gender stereotypes and inequalities. Within educational settings, the curriculum, teacher attitudes, classroom interactions, and school policies often reflect deep-rooted gender biases, consciously or unconsciously affecting students’ learning outcomes and self-perceptions. The pedagogy highlights the need for gender-sensitive teaching practices that challenge traditional roles and provide equal opportunities for all students. Topics like the gender gap in literacy, women’s access to higher education, gender-based violence in schools, and representation of genders in textbooks are discussed to promote awareness and change. The goal is to build an education system that not only imparts knowledge but also nurtures equality, empowerment, and respect for diverse gender identities, ultimately contributing to a more just and inclusive society.
