“Unveiling Gender Sensitivity: A Comparative Analysis of Male and Female Pre-service Teachers’ Experiences and Engagement within their Distinct Curriculums in Rajasthan”

Abstract

Gender sensitivity is a dynamic process that cultivates and indulges the different rights and roles of Men and Women outside of their societal standards to cater to all. It is persevered through a constant inclusive process that equitizes all equally. Specifically, UN-REDD states that gender sensitivity is about understanding and considering socio-cultural norms and discriminations to acknowledge and identify the different rights, roles, and responsibilities of Men and Women in the community and the relationships between them. Hence, it raises concerns for the educators of the new world. Pre-service teachers are taught to shape young minds in the future, thus, their understanding of the same affects millions of minds, determining, how sensitized Male and Female students are, and how similarly or differently they will affect their students. In recognition of this, this study aims to quantify the experiences and engagement of pre-service teachers with their gender-sensitized curriculum to identify how they will affect their students in the future.
