Nationwide, only about three percent of early childhood teachers are male in the U. S. Experts say this can have an impact on young children whose understanding of gender roles and identity are rapidly forming. Research has found that having access to diverse teachers is beneficial for children. For the youngest learners, it means they are more likely to get exposed to different varieties of play and communication. It also helps them develop healthy ideas around gender.
"In our world and our society, we have very specific stereotypes (模式化形象) of gender roles," said Mindi Reich-Shapiro, an assistant professor in the teacher education department of the Borough of Manhattan Community College, and one of the authors of a recent study. "It’s important for children to see other possibilities and other paths they can take. "
Despite mostly feeling supported by colleagues and family members, many of the male educators surveyed in the study reported facing social or cultural resistance in their careers as early education teachers. Some also reported that there were parents surprised or concerned that their child had a male teacher. And they had been advised by colleagues or other staff not to hug children.
Reich-Shapiro and fellow researchers made several recommendations to increase male representation in the field. Low pay has long been acknowledged as a major issue in the early childhood field. Over 70% of male educators who said they intended to stay in the early education workforce noted an increased salary was a major motivating factor for them to commit to the career long-term. The report suggests paying all early childhood educators the way elementary school teachers are paid.
Cities and programs should establish support groups for male early childhood educators and provide mentoring and professional development advice for male educators and their program leaders.
The authors also suggest that traditional recruitment approaches for early childhood educators "do not address the gender gap in the field." They recommend providing young men opportunities to work with children through training and volunteer programs, targeting groups of men who are considering a career change, such as fathers.
What do we learn about male teachers from their responses in the study?
选项
A、Some of them find it awkward when hugging children.
B、They feel pressured to keep up with female colleagues.
C、They find it hard to meet the expectations of kids’ parents.
D、Many of them feel prejudiced against socially and culturally.
答案
D
解析
细节辨认题。定位句提到,尽管很大程度上感觉得到了同事和家人的支持,许多接受该研究调查的男性教育工作者表示,作为早教教师,他们在职业生涯中面临着社会或文化阻力。也就是说,男性幼儿教师经历着社会和文化的偏见,因此本题答案为D)。原文第三段最后一句说的是男性幼儿教师被建议不要拥抱孩子,而不是男老师他们自己觉得拥抱孩子很尴尬,因此排除A);B)在原文未提及;原文第三段第二句提到,有些家长对自己孩子的老师是男性感到惊讶或担心,并未涉及家长的期望,因此排除C)。
