Teaching feminist geographies in the Netherlands. Learning from student-led fieldtrips

In this paper, the authors reflect on the use of student-led fieldtrips as an example of feminist pedagogy in a feminist geography course, a joint course by the universities of Amsterdam and Groningen in The Netherlands. The paper is a co-production of three lecturers and one student of this course and therefore includes teachers' as well as students' views. The authors conclude that student-led fieldtrips are a successful means of bringing in an explicit feminist pedagogy in teaching gender geography. Students were able to help shape the course using their own everyday experiences and interes... Mehr ...

In this paper, the authors reflect on the use of student-led fieldtrips as an example of feminist pedagogy in a feminist geography course, a joint course by the universities of Amsterdam and Groningen in The Netherlands. The paper is a co-production of three lecturers and one student of this course and therefore includes teachers' as well as students' views. The authors conclude that student-led fieldtrips are a successful means of bringing in an explicit feminist pedagogy in teaching gender geography. Students were able to help shape the course using their own everyday experiences and interests and were able to contextualize their experiences in relation to theory explored in the classroom. This result is particularly important within the context of geography teaching in Dutch universities in which an empirical and policy oriented focus and a masculine model of teaching and learning dominates. ; En aquest article, les autores reflexionen sobre l'ús dels treballs de camp conduïts per l'alumnat com un exemple de pedagogia feminista en un curs de geografia feminista impartit per les universitats d'Amsterdam i de Groningen, als Països Baixos. L'article és una coproducció entre tres professores titulars i una estudiant d'aquest curs, per tant, inclou la visió del professorat i de l'alumnat. Les autores conclouen que els treballs de camp conduïts per l'alumnat són una forma excel·lent d'introduir explícitament la pedagogia feminista en l'ensenyament de la geografia del gènere. L'alumnat va ser capaç de contribuir a modificar el curs utilitzant les seves experiències quotidianes i els seus interessos, com també de contextualitzar aquestes experiències en relació amb la teoria explorada a classe. Aquest resultat és particularment important en el context de l'ensenyament de la geografia a les universitats neerlandeses, on predomina una orientació empírica i política i un model masculí d'ensenyament i aprenentatge. ; En este artículo, las autoras reflexionan sobre el uso de los trabajos de campo conducidos por el ...
