Recenzii

It provides established scholars, students, and novice researchers with a critically engaged and insider’s exploration and demarcation of the challenges and possibilities for LGB youth in South African schools through a critical pedagogic approach to the schools’ curricula.” (Jacques Rothmann, Journal of LGBT Youth, November, 2017)

Textul de pe ultima copertă
In this book, Francis highlights the tension between inclusion and sexual orientation, using this tension as an entry to explore how LGB youth experience schooling. Drawing on research with teachers and LGB youth, this book troubles the teaching and learning of sexuality diversity and, by doing so, provides a critical exploration and analysis of how curriculum, pedagogy, and policy reproduces compulsory heterosexuality in schools. The book makes visible the challenges of teaching sexuality diversity in South African schools while highlighting its potential for rethinking conceptions of the social and cultural representations thereof. Francis links questions of policy and practice to wider issues of society, sexuality, social justice and highlights its implications for teaching and learning. The author encourages policy makers, teachers, and scholars of sexualities and education to develop further questions and informed action to challenge heteronormativity and heterosexism.
