Art Education Art Education Education Equity LGBTQ Sexism Heterosexism Homophobia Secondary Education <p>Sexism and heterosexism, or homophobia, are two potentially sensitive and controversial issues that affect the field of art education. Since they are current issues, sexism and heterosexism manifest in students’ every day lived experiences. The study aimed to reveal Ohio secondary art teachers’ attitudes about sexism and heterosexism. </p><p>Through a literature review, the study explored the link between sexism and heterosexism, sexism’s role in the written and hidden curriculums, as well as heterosexism’s role in the written and hidden curriculums. The quantitative method of survey was used to gauge Ohio secondary art teachers’ attitudes about how sexism and heterosexism affect their curriculums. The qualitative method of interviewing was also utilized in order to understand how these two issues relate to the art classroom in a more holistic way. It was concluded that teacher education programs must address these two issues in order to prepare pre-service teachers to facilitate dialogues, as well as sensitively handle sexist and heterosexist incidents in the school community. Furthermore, it was found that additional resources are needed, as well as in-depth ethnographic studies to better understand how sexism and heterosexism affects education.</p> 2009-08-19 English text Kent State University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=kent1250604290 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=kent1250604290 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
