Summary:

The purpose of the Curriculum Analysis Project in the Social Sciences was the development of materials to help faculty teaching introductory courses in microeconomics, psychology, and sociology in colleges and universities incorporate into their course content and teaching practices new and existing knowledge about women and gender-specific knowledge about men. The materials have been organized into 2 sets of guidelines. The first set relates to curriculum content. The second relates to classroom interaction patterns. The 2 sets of guidelines have been designed to make the scholarship in this area easily accessible in a form that can be integrated throughout the introductory course. In addition, these materials may also serve as a resource guide for other courses in the 3 disciplines. Though the guidelines have been designed primarily for use by individual faculty, their use within departments, divisions, or entire colleges could have a profound effect upon the total curriculum. The report includes the publication titled "Guidelines for Introductory Psychology" with Nancy Russo and Natalie Malovich. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2004 APA, all rights reserved)
