Gender Diversity in Education GPT is ready for testing! Would you like to give it a go?

The Gender Diversity in Education GPT for educators is there to help you to ask those questions about gender diversity and gender inclusion that you have on your mind. -The results are crafted to line up with helpful guides from InsideOUT Kōaro and other education support providers in Aotearoa NZ. 

Creating this GPT is part of my research and is one of the designed support solutions. 

Keep in mind that the more honest you are in your questions and comments in that chat, the better the results. It is good for you to know that I can't see what you are chatting there; it is anonymous. That means that I can't tell if it is useful or not, so I would love to fill in this feedback/feedforward form about your experience with this particular GPT. That would help us know if a tool like this would be helpful for educators. 

Thank you so much for your help for testing, and providing feedback and feedforward about the Gender Diversity in Education GPT. It is very appreciated!

I am thrilled to share that the UNLEARN podcast now has four episodes available, and you can listen to them on Apple Podcasts too ! Reaching this milestone has been a journey of passion and learning—and yes, jumping through a few hoops to get the podcast onto Apple Podcasts, but it’s worth it to make it easier for educators like you to tune in. A quick recap of the episodes so far: Episode 1: Who am I, and why do I want to support teachers in gender inclusion? This episode introduces the UNLEARN podcast and my personal journey—why I am passionate about gender inclusion in education and how I hope to inspire teachers to create inclusive classrooms. Episode 2: How Can Our Common Values Help Us Unlearn and Embrace Gender Diversity? In this episode, I explore how shared values and mental models can guide us in challenging biases and fostering a more inclusive mindset, offering practical examples for educators. Episode 3: How Can Gender Statistics Challenge and Inspire Teachers? with Sylvia...

From master’s project to continued research: My ethics got approved!

Image
I am thrilled to share that my next research project, titled Cis Paralysis and the Power of Unlearning: Rethinking Gender in Education , has officially received ethics approval from the academyEX Research, Enterprise and Ethics Working Group. This marks the next step in continuing the work I started during my Master of Change and Organisational Resilience. This project builds upon my earlier focus on how educators can develop more gender-inclusive mental models. This time, I am going deeper, exploring how cisnormativity shows up in education and how reflective and relational tools, such as the UNLEARN podcast, might support educators in unlearning limiting assumptions and engaging more meaningfully with gender diversity. Why does this next step matter? During my masters, I heard from many educators who wanted to support rainbow students but felt paralysed by fear of getting it wrong. This hesitation, which I refer to as cis-paralysis, is worth investigating. My goal is to better under...

My Design Principles for Supporting Gender Inclusion in Education: Insights from Practice-Based Research

Image
When I first began exploring how to better support educators in developing gender-inclusive mental models, I knew that creating resources alone wouldn’t be enough. The way support was designed and the values and assumptions embedded in it would matter just as much as the content. Through a practice-based, design-driven research journey, I came to understand that meaningful change in education needs tools that are not only informative but also relational  and  reflective. Rather than offering a one-size-fits-all solution, these design principles I have been working with create a flexible foundation. My goal has been to provide guidance rooted in real-world needs while leaving space for adaptation. In this project, developing design principles helped ensure that the tools I created, such as the UNLEARN podcast episodes, remained aligned with the diverse realities of educators and gender-diverse students across Aotearoa New Zealand. Here are my Design Principles 1. Flexible, Low-...
