"Wise and Foolish Virgins: White Women at Work in the Feminized World of Primary School Teaching by Sally Campbell Galman asks the question, what does it mean for an entire profession to be numerically dominated by white women, and what is the relationship between teacher preparation and professional feminization? Galman provides a sharp, unflinching look at the landscape of a profession on the verge of transformation and offers a frank assessment of where teacher education must go in order to maintain its relevance in the new economy.

Het onderwijs vervrouwelijkt, steeds meer is de leerkracht een vrouw, zeker in het kleuter- en basisonderwijs. Zo ook in de Verenigde Staten waar bijna 90% van de leraren in het basisonderwijs jonge blanke vrouwen uit de middenklasse zijn. Volgens de onderzoekers voelen velen van hen zich aangetrokken tot het basisonderwijs omdat ze hiermee zeker in de sociaal-culturele context van de Verenigde Staten, beantwoorden aan een vrouwelijk ideaal en gezien worden als de 'good girls'. Zo lijken ze ook eerder conservatief, en houden zich verre van identificatie met de vrouwenbeweging of met kritisch denken over gender. Maar ook de lerarenopleiding gaat niet vrijuit, het zijn hier ook veelal blanke middenklasse vrouwen die lesgeven en zo onbewust de sterotypen mee helpen bevestigen. Onderzocht wordt wat het betekent voor jonge vrouwen om te kiezen voor een beroep dat door de maatschappij als een werk van 'liefde en zorg' wordt bekeken dat heel goed bij hen past omwille van hun 'biologische voortbestemming' om te zorgen.

"Data analysis is often the most difficult task facing students and novice qualitative researchers, including Shane the Lone Ethnographer--a grad student with fond visions of the Wild West--and her horse Transcriptor. In this comic-style textbook, we follow Shane as she attempts to corral her data and make sense of it for publication. Shane learns how to read, sort, code, write, and assess the analysis of a qualitative study in the traditions of ethnography, grounded theory, discourse, and narrative analysis. Along the trail, she receives helpful advice from experienced researchers who explain their analytic practices in detail. Written in a friendly, comic book style, Shane's Wild West adventures in data analysis will be both instructive and an enjoyable read." -- Publisher's description

Are comics, graphic novels and art the true cultivators of childhood wisdom? In this podcast, Dr. Sally Campbell Galman, a Professor of Child and Family Studies at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, explores comics and arts-based research, questioning the conventional wisdom of childhood. As an anthropologist, Galman explains how she approaches childhood in an innovative way, attempting to bypass the 'adultist impulses to make the child a nostalgic project' and instead to adopt the perception that 'children are people now . . . children are experts about themselves'. She explains how she can do this through her skills as an artist, whereby she can express her experiences through art, getting to the core of the data in a way that would be much more difficult via more traditional methods of data analysis.Galman goes on to discuss the Gender Moxie Project, which aimed to investigate the experiences and resilience of gender-diverse children in their schools, communities and homes. Sally had spoken to more than 300 families in the United States and had begun recruiting participants in Germany when the COVID-19 pandemic interrupted and prevented research strategies from continuing.The project found, for example, that gender-normative children benefit from a gender-diverse child in their school or class. This is brought about by the conversations of diversity that are introduced by experiencing difference, which benefits all those involved.Creating a graphic novel is an emotionally exhausting and heavily involved process, Galman explains. She shares her work with the participants, and they are often excited not only to have a space where they are listened to but also to have their stories told in a positive way.This podcast series is brought to you by a collaborative partnership between SAGE Publishing and QSR International: https://www.qsrinternational.com.
