- Description
- Studies focusing exclusively on the connection between Arab Muslim women's educational pursuits and their gender perceptions, and how their gender perceptions may have changed as a result of living in two different cultures, are rarely conducted. Additionally, the factors that may influence an Arab Muslim woman's educational pursuits seem seldom investigated. This article is highlighting some factors that may influence Arab Muslim women's gender perceptions. In researching Arab Muslim women's experiences, I considered the diversity and multiplicity of their race, ethnicity, class, and experience. How Arab Muslim women construct the gender aspect of their identities and how these identities may have changed or shifted as a result of living in Canada and attending Canadian educational institutions is explored. The cultural and religious reproduction of gender socialization is a major part of the analysis in this article.

- Description
- Different from the humanities and social sciences, women's and gender-specific contents in research and teaching could hardly be established in mathematics, natural and technical sciences so far. Making everything even more difficult, courses at German universities are very disciplinary and there don't exist women's studies programs so far. By comparison with the situation in the USA, students of science and engineering fields hardly get in touch with gender studies and feminist theories. Up to now the long-standing efforts for an institutionalization of feminist science studies into science and engineering departments at German universities are still scarcely successful and have just recently taken a promising turn.
