This article explores the perception of gender inequality in science and the influencing factors. Data was collected through in-depth interviews with students belonging to a science club; we present it as a case study. This research sheds light on what high school and university students studying Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics…

Sport participation in adolescence helps to reach the recommended levels of physical activity and predicts participation during adulthood. Few cross-cultural studies compare contexts of sport participation and their relation with sport participation rates. In Europe, Austria and France are two countries that differ in their economic situation and…

This paper explores gender dynamics within a vocational Esports high school, focusing on the experiences of female students. Utilizing Cultural-Historical Activity Theory (CHAT) and Digital Feminism as theoretical frameworks, the research examines how educational practices, digital cultures, and socio-cultural contexts influence participation and…

Studies in the literature reported several positive benefits provided by the use of technology in online education, especially in the gamified tutoring system.

Although strides have been made in promoting gender equality, there still exists a lingering gap in math achievement, where males tend to outshine females. This has piqued the interest of both scientists and society, who continue to explore the reasons behind the limited representation of women in math-intensive fields such as science, technology,…

This study is situated within a male-dominated Palestinian-Israeli reality rife with issues of gender privilege. With a purpose to disrupt the status quo in my language classroom and positively affect students' beliefs towards gender injustices, I, as a teacher researcher, designed a unit on gender issues including a book set that would challenge…

Using the case of…

This paper has two goals: First, to detail processes through which a project funded under a National Science Foundation workforce development program (Innovative Technology Experiences for Students and Teachers, ITEST) leveraged active partnerships among government agencies, industry firms, and universities to develop and study an innovative,…
