About this listen
Episode 29: Today on The Gender Card, we explore teacher activism, and how that resistance translates into the classroom. Phd candidate Carla Tapia has delved into how teachers can bring about social change through resistance, despite constant scrutiny and limitations on their teaching. Using Indigenous methodologies to understand how teachers engage with their students, she showed how teachers have developed ways to give them space to resist - by giving alternative views to history in the classroom, that have traditionally been dominated by male perspectives. Senior Research Fellow Dr Debbie Bargallie was one of Carla’s supervisors, bringing her expertise on Indigenous methodologies, and they both join us on the Gender Card today. Carla’s use of Indigenous Australian methodologies and decolonisation approaches has shone new light on the struggles that teachers face, finding their motivations to create a fairer society are often thwarted by bureaucracy, and how they overcome those challenges.
