Interdisciplinary Gender Equality Education Integrating Science, Mathematics and Information Technologies and Software Courses: A Sample from Türkiye
Abstract
The general aim of the study was to improve students’ awareness of gender equality. An instructional design was developed in which mathematics, science, information technologies and software (ITS) courses were integrated, with the theme of gender equality at the center. The method of the study was determined as a case study. The participants of the study were 21 sixth-grade students at a public school in Turkey. Research data were collected using the “Views Form on Gender Equality” and “Practice Evaluation Form” developed by the researchers. According to the students’ views, it was determined that an interdisciplinary education on gender equality had positive effects on improving students’ awareness of gender equality. When the students’ views about the practice process were examined, it was seen that the positive opinions about the process were high in number, and students presented few negative views.
