Most College Students Are Women: Implications for Teaching, Learning, and Policy

This volume’s rich value comes from exposing readers to the research, practice, and praxis in the education of women. An academic advisor would benefit from fluency with this text’s language (disciplinary and interdisciplinary, in and out of feminist studies), its perspectives, trends over time, and recommendations for future practice, since most college students are women. -NACADA Journal

By providing women learners’ own perspectives on their classroom experiences within the context of classroom research and theory, the contributors present a powerful look at the impact of pedagogical strategy with relation to multiple disciplines. I look forward to implementing some of the suggested practices. -Feminist Teacher

[This book is] filled with thought provoking perspectives on how we can do better for women students and, by extension, for all students with their diverse needs and learning styles. These chapters suggest that today, models of teaching and guidance designed around women can best serve the varied needs of all our students. -Women in Higher Education

A fine collection for both feminists and non-feminists in academia. -Feminist Review
