Somerville, Margaret – Journal of Vocational Education and Training, 2006
Women's care work sits on the boundary between unpaid work in the private domain and poorly paid, low-status work in the public sphere. It continues to be a site for the expression of complex, high-level knowledge and skills, and of ongoing gender oppression. The aged-care industry is a particularly salient example of such work. It is a…

Hiller, Claire; Johnson, Kym – English in Australia, 2007
This research is an examination of how gender is constructed through the pedagogical practices of the teacher in one secondary English/literacy classroom.

Bannink, Anne; van Dam, Jet – Evaluation and Research in Education, 2007
The powerful role of prior experiences and cultural schemata in guiding novice teachers' conceptions of how to teach is hardly contested.
