NOTE: 553 p.
AVAILABILITY: Education Development Center, 55 Chapel
Street, Newton, MA 02160.

ABSTRACT: This curriculum guide contains materials written
for teachers or group leaders of graduate students in
educational psychology, psychology, sociology, and child and
family studies and is designed to reflect the basic
assumptions of educational equity, i.e., sex-fair and sex
affirmative facilitator attitudes, and counseling and
teaching techniques. Each of the five units--New Techniques
for Counseling Women, Sex-Bias in Interest Measures, Women
in Higher Education, Sex Affirmative Action in Education,
and Assertiveness Training for Job-Seeking Skills--outlines
the target audience, provides key definitions, and describes
content limitations. Objectives, background information,
facilitator preparation, suggested learning activities,
review questions, activity handouts and bibliographies are
included for each section. Developed with interchangeable
formats for use in workshop settings, the units may be used
as supplements or as self-contained course offerings. (MCF)
