This study employed the case study method and c…
What Should Be Taught and What Is Taught: Integrating Gender into Medical and Health Professions Education for Medical and Nursing Students
This study focused on gender education for medical and nursing students, because gender competency is essential for them to provide effective and appropriate healthcare and to promote equal rights to health. A questionnaire was administered to 50 health care professionals to explore the gender concepts and gender knowledge that they deem imperative and often teach to medical and nursing undergraduate students in class. Sexism, gender awareness, s…

How, apart from by conveying professional knowledge, can university medical education nurture and improve the gender competency of medical students and thereby create an LGBT+ friendly healthcare environment? This study explored the use of game-based teaching activities in competency-based teaching from the perspective of competency-based medical education (CBME) and employed a qualitative case-study methodology. We designed an LGBT+ Health and M…
Young people, friendships and gender learning: Insight From Student-Produced Microfilms and Curricular Implications
Friendship microfilms produced by students can be used to understand how students make their relationships meaningful. Hence, in this study, friendship microfilms made by Taiwanese students from 2000 to 2013 and uploaded on YouTube were collected and evaluated through a textual analysis aimed at deriving suggestions for relationship education curricula. Four types of narrative were identified in these films. A common theme was addressing romantic…
Transforming concepts into practices: Mainstreaming gender in higher education
If gender mainstreaming is an implementation strategy for achieving gender equality, how should such a strategy be applied on a university campus? I conducted a case study in T University, employing action research to inquire into the practical knowledge and strategies derived during the interactive dialectical process of transforming concepts into practices. This study evolved a four-point strategy to fulfill the objectives of gender mainstreami…

For this study, I adopted a qualitative research design and did semi-structured in-depth interviews with 14 university students regarding their experiences of friendship and love to investigate how new technologies have affected their intimate relationship practices. I found that my respondents employed connectivity technology to control the extent to which they invested financial, time-based, and emotional costs in friendships. They maintained a…
Flower boys on campus: Performing and Practicing Masculinity
This study conducted an ethnographic investigation on male students in beauty industry courses at a vocational school in Southern Taiwan. By focusing on these male students as the research subject, the creation of meaning in their masculinity practices from the perspectives of the boys themselves were examined. This study reveals that, under the influence of curricula and popular culture, dressing up is the primary method for this group of boys t…
Teaching sexual matters in Taiwan: The analytical framework for popular culture and youth sexuality education
Although most teachers realize the potential of using popular culture within the sexuality education classroom, incorporating it successfully is complex. Especially, how can teachers critically analyse the ideology contained in popular culture without lapsing into moralizing and design motivating activities? For teachers in Taiwan, whose training has involved abstinence-only sex education and discourse, avoiding such activities is an even greater…

Using qualitative research and in-depth interviews, this study attempts to understand how female feminist teachers practice feminist pedagogy in colleges. It adopts the perspectives of multiple masculinities and gender organization to present the systematic and cultural gendering processes in institutions and to explore their effects on feminist teaching practices. The findings of this study show that gender ideology embedded in systems and organ…
