In my schools this year there is no gender stereotype as all my students are boys

# data[].attributes.body
The truth is that I have not found stereotypes. It is possible that you have not detected it.

# data[].attributes.body
I encounter gender stereotype sometimes when female students are not ecouraged to continue studing when they finish high school

# data[].attributes.body
I don't have encountered a gender stereotype in my classroom; I have encountered it in parents of my students

# data[].attributes.body
In my opinion is important to be a balance in classroom. I haven't made this situation.

# data[].attributes.body
It is very important to intervene when encountering gender balance and overcome it. I try to inspire my students giving examples both pf women and men because both genders must have equal oppurtunities.

# data[].attributes.body
Wedon't have any gender sterotype; in my school we  we have created a platform for sharing and a contest that sensitizes pupils and parents about the problem

# data[].attributes.body
In my highschool there are not gender stereotypes or behaviors inside the classroom. Nevertheless, the university studies they choose to study are influenced by social prejudices with regarding gender.

# data[].attributes.body
We dont have any gender stereotype in my classroom.

# data[].attributes.body
no distinction should be made between men and women. because we are all just people

In my opinion both genders must have the same opportunity.
In my school girls are more interested for STEM education.

# data[].attributes.body
Sometimes when a girl has difficulties, she might say I am not good at physics, like all the girls

# data[].attributes.body
I tinnk that both genders have the same chances

# data[].attributes.body
I think there'arent diffference of gender between girl and boy.

In our school boys and girls are equal, and that gender stereotype not exist.

We were talking about ancient scientists and they weren't able to name even one female scientists, so we reaseached this topic, working in group to find the contribution of a few women in the history of science

I do not have problem with gender stereotypes in my classroom.

# data[].attributes.body
A stereotype met in the classroom is the one expressed by "the girls are not good at that!" I have overcome this stereotype by involving girls in the activities that have generated this stereotype and demonstrating to others that girls can be very good, often more good than boys.

# data[].attributes.body
I've never had situations like gender in my interviews and observations, all are treated the same way

# data[].attributes.body
There are no stereotypes in my classes although some of the students believe some sciences are for boys, like physics and others are for girls, like biology. Most of the students that choose engineer courses are the boys.

# data[].attributes.body
Almost all of my students (private lessons) have been girls and I try to show them that they are also good at Math, Physics or Astronomy even when they don't feel it, by asking and letting them answer and explain their thinking process and if I found a misconception or confusion asking them more questions that lead them to resolve it. That way I believe they see that they are good at these subjects.

# data[].attributes.body
It was really interesting to watch American Woman Engineer experience, because in my country, there is no gender discrimination about this aspect, girls are also good in Math and Sciences.

i do not have problem with gender stereotypes in my classroom.

I said that science isn't male or female, but it is made by people who studied the phenomena

# data[].attributes.body
The activities proposed and organised are for everyone (males and females), but some topics continue to be more interesting for males.
For example I have proposed a coding course in a class of 25 students (13 males + 12 females ), only 5 out of 25 have been interested about it and of these five only one is a female. The same thing has happened in another similar class.

# data[].attributes.body
When my students say that the most famous scientists are men, because they are biologically more talented in math and science, I let them to read with high voice the book of the Nobel Rita Levi Montalcini "Le tue antenate" where she talks about a lot of female scientists that cannot be famous just because they were female...after that the students change idea...

I am a mother of four... two boys, two girls... As obvious my two boys play soccer, influenced by their father, who is a major fan of AEK FC... When one of my daughter was very young she always played with her brothers at home... but she longed to belong to an official soccer team... the FC in our neighbourhood didn't accept girls! She was very sad. So we searched around and finally found a FC for girls. She is training and participating at soccer matches and now she even started training polo, where the majority of the players are boys! She is very happy! I always narrate this example to my students at school, when the boys underestimate girls... and because my daughter is at the same school with me, they meet her and play with her and I am very proud, when they say, she is a very good soccer player!

# data[].attributes.body
Although there is no gender stereotype in our school, there is a stereotype of thinking that boys are more talented than girls in the maths, science subjects. And I agree with Zita that such stereotypes come from the family, the childhood environment. But young people are now active, fast changing stereotypes, and I hope that in the future there will surely be a gender balance in engineering specialties.

# data[].attributes.body
Fortunately, in our school boys and girls are equal, and that gender stereotype not exist.

# data[].attributes.body
Sometimes I happen when they play.
Males do not want to play a female, then talk to them and try to assert the child's reasons.
Sometimes I have seen the males very surprised to find interest in girls.

# data[].attributes.body
I teach tecnology for students of 10-13 years and I unfortunately find male are more induced from their parents in STEM disciplines than female. Our task as teachers is to change this stereotypes in the learning activities improving girls to be more confident in STEM, I work a lot in this direction.

# data[].attributes.body
From my experience young students often come with gender stereotypes from home. Girls are told from their parents that physics and math are difficult and are for boys, so is technology. Lots of the girls don't even try to learn those subjects. The personal example and the encouragement is all good, but it's very hard to convince them otherwise.

# data[].attributes.body
In my class I did not see directly that there were stereotypes with the genders but for example I know that when we mark study visits some gypsy girls are not authorized by the parents to participate. Here the teacher is incapacitated to solve.

Because of cultural effects, the girls can go restricted departments.It does not seem as an ordinary situation that girls go mechanical technology, electrical technology at vocational high schools. However, at my high school there are few girls who are in department of furniture design and electrical technology. I was suprised at first but then I was glad to see this

I agree with Eimear. I also work at a girls' only school in Spain. The pre-conceived ideas exist where certain jobs are not for girls. We need fighting against this stigma and fix in their heads that hey can go as far as they want to.

I am working on a vacational high school and there is a huge gender discrimination in my school, because it is also a part of our culture. There are vacational high schools only for girls whom are taught to be a baby sitter, tailor or a cook. My schhol in not restiricted any gender but there are few girls like 5 % or so. We have Machine Technology, Metal Technology, Electronics Technology departments which are composed of only boys. Most of the girls are educated on chemistry deoartment to be a laboratory worker. Being a female teacher in this environment, I feel responsible and tell them stories about women scientist, engineers or pilots. I try to brake the walls surrounding their imagination.

# data[].attributes.body
I teach in a single sex girl's school. The problem we have is not gender balance but gender perception - what the girls perceive their abilities to be. We have a very low uptake of physics and chemistry in comparison to biology at senior level. The challenge for me as a teacher in this situation is to encourage the girls towards these subjects...

Gender discimination starts at an early age - even in preschool, and it starts, inaverdetly, with us. It is important for us to check our learning materials, our walls and even ourselves. Do we have girl role models in our texts and pictures. Do we give boys and girls the same number of oppurtunities to speak in class? Do we present the big picture of our lesson bfore going into details? Do we encourage students to articulate their feelings even when it is a science lesson?

# data[].attributes.body
I studied Physics in Spain during 90's and we were not half of the class but there were a large number of female students and still they are. As a teacher I have observed that girls are sometime less
self-confident than boys regarding science subjects even if the atmosphere of the classroom is ok and everyone is involve. Another topic is the choice of the degree. Female student will choose, mainly, health and life science sudies rather than hard sciences like Physics or Engineering. I'm not really sure if this kind of choices are due to cultural backgrounds or personal preferences. I think that we have progressed a lot in this area but still we have
work to do.

My students are quite young so gender stereotypes do not really have a big influence on them. That being said I did encounter a situation when during a manufacturing class some of the boys refused to learn knitting because they thought it was "girl stuff" but after I told them that the objective was to knit a superhero badge they were over the moon and some of them did a better job than the girls

I studied in a tecnical school in the 80' and I had a similar experience. From my teachers to my mother or brother everyone ask me why with disappointment!
We where 5 female students in all the institute (more than a hundred students). There were no toilet for us. I even remember some teacher talked about girls as we lower the level of school education. Now thing are much better but still few of my female students choose  tecnical studies! Even myself if I close my eyes and immagine an engineer is a male one!

Just this week! In my 5th grade class, the students were working on a group project. One team had three boys and 1 girl. Two of the boys were actively excluding the girl from participating (it is a math and design project). I was quite unhappy about this. I went and sat with the group and observed them. I discovered that the girl had many ideas, but they were contrary to the the boys', so they wouldn't let her speak. In the end I had to intervene, and ask them to reflect on what was happening. The girl spoke about how she felt, and I gave her space to share her ideas. It turned out that the boys were on the wrong track completely, and the girl was the only one who had carefully read the instructions. I let that lesson sink in without comment....and they began to actively include her after that.

I'm a mechanical engineer and I have a university and school experience similar to that of Debbie Sterling. Today I am a high school teacher who seeks to fight the stereotype that women can not be engineers. Even today among colleagues there are many prejudices: "What can a woman understand about machines, or design?" Day by day a woman in the engineering field needs to show how much it is worth. As the protagonist of the video I had some personal satisfaction. I am engineer I have two qualifications and I won two public competitions to become a professor. I was the first of my graduation contest ... before many men who are considered genes. I am glad to be an engineer because I have the opportunity to deal with different fields ... I wish that today's girls do not become discouraged by these steriotypes but who undertake the scientific study because it is fascinating .. we can develop our creative spirit .. so many men do not have.

I teach in a technical school where there are many boys and a few females. Unfortunately in my region there is a stereotype and it is thought that technical subjects such as electronics, mechanics and computer science are preferable to males. As a teacher could promote equality by showing students examples of famous women who they are distinguished in these fields.

I think stereotypes are transmitted and maintained by family, media, schools, friends, etc. In my teaching I try to give boys and girls same credit. Groups/teams that I set up for class activities are formed with boys and girls together. It is important to make them fit it and to develop they skills.

When it was about singing a song, my boys were embarassed, smiled to each other and refused to sing because „only girls are able to sing”. I asked them to have a musical dialogue on a familiar topic they enjoyed and... Surprise!!!  It was fun!  They all sing now together. No one worries about how well they are singing. They are just having fun. :)

I can globally assume dtudents aged 11-14?today harbor fewer stereotypes than we used tomdo back in the 1980s. I had to recently overcome a stereotype coming from a colleague, not a student.

Much ofl last schoolyear was spent in teaching how women suffer stereotyped roles in fairy tales, movies and ads. I must say that our pupils reacted accordingly and we were happy with the results.

One day, a colleague of mine meets me in the staff room and enquires about my lunch. I show her what it is about (lettuce with tomatoes and corn plus soy "meatballs" and some potatoes) and she omments with a smile: "Ah, your wife is spoiling you".

Now, not only am I not married, nor even fiancé... but that woman was avtually the leader of the project against stereotypes and discrimination.

This really left me speechless.

Some boys do not accept girls in motion games.
Then I'm doing mixed teams. I usually care not to praise or encourage girls more than boys, not to protect them too much. Boys are allowed to express their emotions, and girls can lead the team, if necessary.
It is interesting, although women suffer from gender discrimination, they usually perpetuate gender stereotypes. Therefore, both mothers and teaching ladies need to be aware of their own prejudices.

# data[].attributes.body
There are just 4 female students globally in my 6 classes! This tells you very much about the gender stereotype in my country! It is because girls are not supposed to be good at mechanics, electronics or even at informatics! Despite our efforts as teachers, we realize every year that changing families prejudices is really hard.

It happened yesterday in my classroom  of secondary school(K6). A little girl said she liked karate and that her intention would be to become a karate teacher.

If there are differences in the working dreams of males and females and an interesting discussion has come out of it.

Once, an optional science course was chosen by - just boys. After a month a girl suddenly entered the room telling she changed her mind.
Every boy raised their heads. Suddenly they all did a better job trying to win the girl's attention. After some time no one paid attention to the gender imbalance, but the girl was often asked to express her ideas - to make projects overcome obstacles.

When I attended the Low Secondary School (where I teach now) about 30 years ago, there were a cultural and social open-mindedness in my country. Nowadays I can't see a real evolution in those directions. Gender discrimination is real, at work, for exemple in the way men talk to female (even among teachers at school), in the way women are less paid than men for the same jobs . This discrimination starts at home and is fostered by mass media wrong messages.
In class my colleagues and I try to beat gender discriminations, even if many books are full of stereotypes.

The best measure of discrimination towards female gender in Italy can be easily detected watching  any Italian TV channels broadcasting sports events or  reading sport newspapers. Just measure the attention it is given to male athlete and compare it to the one given to female athletes. This situation has a heavy influence on the entire Italian society including schools and classrooms of course.... I try to overcome this inviting women athletes, scientists, doctors etc. I also make sure my Muslim students learn about the wonderful lives of Fatima Fihri, Astrolabye, Malala etc
