The Utah Women & Leadership Project invites you to join us for Segment 4 of a 4-part webinar series titled "Understanding Gender: An In-Depth Exploration for Educators & Parents."
Understanding Gender: An In-Depth Exploration for Educators & Parents: Segment 4 - Incorporating Gender into Teaching & Learning
Description: This webinar introduces educators and parents to research studies that can help them understand the biological and socialized distinctions between boys and girls, young men and young women, and men and women. Comprehending the inherent gender differences will help educators and parents integrate knowledge that can further maximize student learning and have the greatest impact on educational outcomes. We will pull together the information provided in the prior three webinars to help educators and parents effectively manage bullying, discipline, classrooms, learning, and mindset that could be utilized in classrooms and learning settings for learners of all ages.
