Abstract : Three preservice educators and their professor, in a senior research project, used an interactive CD-ROM and written case studies with a class of 5th graders to teach them to recognize and remedy gender inequities. Initially, the children didn't understand why gender bias might be a concern in their classroom. By the end of the study, they were quick to point out incidents of inequitable treatment in their class and to offer possible solutions. Students' comments about gender bias and their suggestions for ways that teachers can be fair offer fresh insight into a subject that some overlook as a challenge for elementary schools. 56
