Introducing High School Students to the Women's Movement; A Directed Study Project for Undergraduates.
Magnusen, Etta; Wetzel, Jodi
The on-going project, first initiated at the University of Minnesota in the spring of 1973, has two objectives: (1) to provide interested undergraduate women at the university with research and development training in Women's Studies; and (2) to provide metropolitan area high schools with information and education regarding the women's movement. College students enrolled in this two-quarter course spend the first quarter preparing informative presentations on the women's movement. During the second quarter the students go into local high schools and deliver the presentations. This report describes the project and offers hints to others who may be interested in developing a similar course. The following are discussed: (1) project background; (2) hints for preparing to offer a women's studies course; and (3) course curriculum, requirements, and objectives. A project sample syllabus is included. The appendixes contain samples of advertisements used by the project, a news release, a letter to high school administrators explaining the project, a proposal form outline, course evaluation form, and a course bibliography.
