Gender Diversity And Sexuality In English Language Education: New Transnational Voices

This book combines teaching-informed research studies and research-informed teaching accounts which explore English language education that engages with gender and sexual diversity. Informed by critical theories, critical literacy, post-structuralism, queer theory, and indigeneity/(de)coloniality, the critical perspectives in this volume consider gender and sexuality as dimensions of human life and aim to promote sexual, gender, emotional and relational wellbeing together with the construction of cultural horizons and citizenship. The chapters are organised around three interdependent areas of inquiry: 1) how educators design pedagogies and curriculums around gender diversity, 2) how students and teachers navigate issues of gender diversity in practice, and 3) how issues of gender diversity are and aren't addressed in the materials for teaching and learning English. The book features chapters from experienced teacher educator-researchers with a gender perspective in diverse settings, with case studies from Argentina, Bangladesh, Canada, Germany, Norway, Poland, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, Spain, Taiwan, Turkey, the UK and Uruguay.
