CAUTIONCAUTION
Gender disparity in Academics
Women make up the vast majority among teaching profes-
sion - Yet, only few among the Academic and Institutions
Heads are female. There were major discrepancy about
women in education today and there is many other chal-
lenges women teachers face.
Even those National conferences, seminars, workshops i
attend, I notice that most of the key note speakers were
male; male chief guest, male panellists, male conveners, and
even male presenters all seemed to be the ones in the spot-
light. Where were all the females?
Women make up the majority of the teaching force, yet
there are still challenges that we face in the classroom.
Much of these challenges have to do with
power, communication and unre-
solved biases.
The myth, or the idea
that there are too few
women qualified to
hold leadership
positions, is exactly
that–a myth. While
there may be
qualified
women, are they
holding higher-
education leader-
ship positions
is a area to
discover
Leadership unleashed
In most of the established education institutions, men typi-
cally move from teaching positions in the colleges to the
administrative levels of education such as Dean, Director,
Principal, etc. Whereas the women teachers are expected to
demonstrate the mothering role they have traditionally held
in society.
The current status is, there are more than enough qualified
women in higher education who can fill available leader-
ship positions, and women are being prepared at a greater
rate than men. Women have earned more than 50 percent of
all doctoral degrees since 2006. But despite these encourag-
ing numbers and despite women’s availability for higher-
education leadership positions, they do not hold associate
professor or professor positions at the same rate as men
Challenging your limits
The employment of women teachers in economic activity
has several beneficial impacts of improving the economic
condition of the family.
In low income earning families in cooperation between
husband and wife, especially, on financial matters is very
important in maintaining the overall development of the
family. Despite women's teachers’ significant role towards the
overall development of the family, the majority of women
teachers encountered a number of difficulties in balancing
their role between family and job responsibility especially
when they need to work more than the normal working
time especially in Self-
financing institutions.
Therefore, it is com-
mon for the majority
of women teachers
suffering from psy-
chological stress
when they are un-
able to complete the
task at a fixed time.
While they spend the
amounts of time away
from their young children
and family can be considered
as one factor that influence family
conflict.
Family friendly policy
Given the importance and demands of
women’s participation in the teaching pro-
fession, It is high time that the HR should
initiate the implication of family friendly
policy and its practice that supports the
involvement of the women teachers to con-
tinue their teaching profession as well as the
overall development of the community.
Time for CHANGE
Those Indian women, who got the opportunity to study and
develop, are not lagging behind in any way when compared
with their counterparts in other highly advanced countries of
the world. It is evident that Indian women simply need an
opportunity to develop themselves and broaden their outlook,
usually people say time changes things, but you actually have
to change them yourself.
Things are changing, it is happy to see
that Dr. S. Thamarai Selvi, Professor
in Computer Science from Anna
University has been appointed as
Vice Chancellor of Thiruvalluvar
University
A greater number of female teach-
ers in computer science courses
resulted in improving the quality of
various parameters in girls' education,
including access and retention, since teachers have a large in-
fluence on students’ decision to study computer science.
Rise of women does not mean the fall of men, In the present
progressive age it is desirable that men and women hold the
same status in society.
Women Empowerment zone ahead
