Module Title & Number: EDMPIP **Full Assignment Title: What is the impact of exploring contemporary gender issues through the study of Shakespeare on student attitudes and perceptions? ** Word count: 6500 Grade achieved: High Distinction (Outstanding) Date of Submission: 01/06/2017 Sample: Introduction The topic of my study is the exploration of gender in the English classroom, specifically the teaching of gender in Shakespeare, and the potential impact that ways of exploring questions of gender within a text can have upon students’ awareness of how they perceive gender issues in their everyday lives and their attitude to the text studied. Gender has always been a significant topic in education. Whether it be stereotyping, gender-bias, gender expectations and roles, equal opportunities in the profession itself and equal opportunities for girls and boys in the classroom, under-achieving boys and silent oppressed girls, or the under-representation of girls and women in STEM subjects – gender issues are both closely intertwined with, and continually under scrutiny in, the educational field. In the secondary English classroom these combine with a contentious curriculum that has often favoured canonized white male authors and texts that, by their very nature, typify male points-of-view.
