ARLINGTON—The College of Education at The University of Texas at Arlington will present David Sadker , nationally known for his work in confronting gender bias and sexual harassment, in an open discussion titled “Is Gender Bias Still an Issue?” from 8:30 to 11:30 a.m. Wednesday, May 2.

Sadker is a professor at American University (Washington, DC). Along with his late wife, Myra, he has researched and widely documented sex bias from the classroom to the boardroom. Topics up for discussion during his campus visit will include the male-female communications gap; how to “see” gender bias in the classroom; practical observation skills and teaching strategies for equitable classrooms.

The Sadkers received the American Educational Research Association’s award for the best review of research published in the United States in 1991, a professional service award in 1995, the Eleanor Roosevelt Award from The American Association of University Women in 1995, and the Gender Architect Award from the American Association of Colleges of Teacher Education in 2001.
