性別平等教育為九年一貫課程綱要中重大議題之一，自《性別平等教育法》通過後，各級學校致力於推動性別教育。然而根據教育部於2010年公布的《性別教育白皮書》顯示，教師仍普遍缺乏性別意識，而對於職前教師的相關訓練亦不足。近來，許多師資培育單位陸續開設「性別教育」課程，然而是否能提升職前教師性別意識仍有待觀察。本研究主要是針對一門「性別教育」課程的實踐與評量進行探究，試圖理解職前教師在修課前後的性別意識之改變。共有38位研究參與者提供質性與量化資料做為分析。結果發現，學生於修課後對於性別教育的理解有明顯的轉變，其內涵包括：廣泛多樣性、日常生活實踐、多元性別與差異、破除偏見與迷思、尊重與接納、價值觀澄清、平等。參與者也認為修習性別教育有幫助，尤其在了解性別偏見的傷害以及性別角色與性取向的多樣化方面。本研究結果肯定性別教育課程對於職前教師的性別意識之影響，並提出實施性別教育課程之建議。

”Gender Education” is one of the Major Issues in the General Guidelines of Grade 1-9 Curriculum of Elementary and Junior High School which was declared by the Ministry of Education. After the passing of Gender Equity Law in 2004, all schools enthusiastically promote gender education on campus. However, the White Paper on the Gender Education published in 2010 shows that teachers are still lack of gender consciousness and the related training for pre-service teachers are inadequate. Recently many teacher education programs start to offer Gender Education courses in colleges, but their impact on gender consciousness remains unclear. The purpose of this study was to analyze the evaluation of a Gender Education course taught by the researcher, in order to understand the change of gender consciousness among a group of future teachers. A total of thirty eight participants provided qualitative and quantitative data for analysis. The results show that the participants' understanding of the meaning of Gender Education have significantly transformed. Their definitions include broadness, everyday praxis, gender diversity and difference, breaking prejudice, respect and acceptance, value clarification, and equity. Also, the participants consider the course very helpful, especially in the areas of understanding the hazards of gendered prejudice, and the diversity of gender roles and sexual orientations. These results support the positive impact of the Gender Education course on enhancing pre-service teachers' gender consciousness. Finally, implications for implementing Gender Education courses will be discussed.
