La desigualdad de género es un problema aún existente en nuestra sociedad. Aunque va evolucionando, positivamente, en el ámbito de la actividad física y el deporte, es evidente el largo camino que aún queda por recorrer para conseguir una igualdad real entre géneros. La Educación Física escolar es un medio desde el que se puede intervenir para intentar acabar con el problema, o en su caso, mitigarlo. El artículo muestra una propuesta de innovación, cuyo objetivo es vencer las desigualdades de género y sus estereotipos, como herencia histórica en nuestra sociedad. Para ello, se plantean unas propuestas de adaptación de las normas y reglas del fútbol, para su trabajo en las clases de Educación Física con alumnado de 2º curso de Educación Secundaria Obligatoria (ESO). La consecución de los objetivos previstos necesita de una alta calidad en la labor docente, como modelo, como medio promotor y corrector de las actitudes del alumnado, además de la transmisión de valores sobre igualdad.Abstract. Gender inequality exists and still is an issue even in today’s society. Though it has improved over the years, there is still a long way to go to achieve a real equality between both sexes in the field of physical activity and sports. Physical Education is a way from where we can intervene and try to eradicate this problem, or mitigate it. This article shows a proposal for innovation, whose goal is to eliminate gender inequalities and their associated stereotypes, stem from a long time in our society. To achieve that, this article presents several proposals of adaptations of different football rules, to be applied in Physical Education classes with 2nd Educación Secundaria Obligatoria (ESO) year students. The achievement of the expected goals needs a high quality of the teaching activity, teachers being role models, promoting and correcting students’ attitudes, as well as transmitting values of gender equality.

In this chapter, the author aims to present, through a review of literature, that the gender equality assumption of the human resource management (HRM) approach is not taken for granted. It seems there exist two sides of the same coin, one representing the HRM approach and the other representing the gendered approach to HRM practices. This chapter reviews HRM practices in work organizations as the potential facilitator of gender inequalities in organizations. In addition, the contentious function of HRM practices in maintaining gender inequalities within work organizations is reviewed. In spite of knowing the implication of HRM practices on being a gender-diverse organization, there remain few studies on the relationship between HRM practices and gender inequality in work organizations. Such research will add a different perspective to HRM practices and contribute to the awareness related to the gendered nature of organizations and their organizational practices.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to argue that culture and context (policy and environment) are key factors affecting gender inequalities within and across countries. Design/methodology/approach This paper applies conceptual and descriptive statistics. Findings The authors found evidence of increasing gender equality in the workplace, but only for rich countries. Gender inequalities persist in the poorest countries, and the gap between rich and poor countries appears to be widening not narrowing. Research limitations/implications This paper demonstrates the need for a comprehensive research program on gender and international business. Practical implications The authors provided useful statistics that could possibly be picked up by newspapers. The paper also highlights the need for a more sustained research program on gender and development. Social implications This paper demonstrates that the public perception of increasing gender equality applies only in very high development (rich) countries. In fact, gender inequality rises as economic development levels decline across countries, and the gap between very high and low countries has widened over the past 15 years. Originality/value The empirical findings with respect to gender inequality across United Nations Development Program country categories over time are, to the best of the authors’ knowledge, novel and original. Relating the gender inequality gap to culture and context highlights the roles that social issues and the environment play in affecting gender inequality across countries and across time.

Abstract High quality of railway track construction is a major priority. One of the quality elements is the resistance to load of railway formation with individual structural layers caused by negative temperatures during the critical freezing period of winter. Numerical modelling allows obtaining more control outputs at different climatic loads. The presented paper shows the load of railway track model with different variants of climate and shows the importance in the designing of the non-transport load under negative temperatures, i.e. observation of transition of the zero isotherm through the layers of railway subgrade. If the subgrade layers of the railway formation are built with high quality and durability then the axis of the track will keep its geometric spatial position during the long-time operation.

Method Analysis

Summary Physical education has been the subject of research for a long time. Research focuses most often on the use of time to get pupils to move actively or on their physical load during a lesson. The evaluation of the didactic interaction of the teaching student - pupil(s) is also an essential area of research. The aim of the paper is to introduce the MADI method and its subsequent use in the evaluation of didactic outputs of teaching students in subjects focused on the didactics of swimming. The method Analysis of Didactic Interaction (ADI) has been modified to assess didactic interactions between the teaching (student) - pupil(s). Modified Analysis of Didactic Interaction (MADI) was created by reducing the number of monitored categories and focusing attention on the activity of the student. The achieved results showed that the most frequent form of behaviour among the students was observation followed by instruction. This influenced both the form of their manifestations, dominated by silence, and the overall manifestation, which was neutral and mostly without material significance. In terms of activities that have been the subject of didactic interaction, students have been taught these activities. The results obtained show that the chosen method seems to be effective for evaluation of didactic output of teaching students. A deeper analysis of student didactic outcomes can contribute to influencing the quality of student didactic competencies. At the same time, it can also serve as a feedback tool on their didactic activities for their faculty teachers.

A teacher is one of the figures who will serve as role models in their behaviors, actions and saying by the students either in the classroom, school and even outside the school environment or in society. He/She will always be noticed and become a spotlight by his/her surrounding commu- nities. Teachers not only have a job to teach, but also have a duty to educate their country. It means that their noble task is not only to educate children intellectually an sich, but also to instill the noble values as the role models and guidance in livelihoods, whether it is derived from the religious, customary and cultural values, so that they grow as the next generation with high quality of personality and character. To realize these expecta- tions, the teacher must have intellectual abilities and good emotional and spiritual character.

The article describes the theory and practice of inclusion of future physical education teacher in the process of refinement of the socialization concept. A productive study and clarification of the socialization concept is carried out in the courses of Theoretical Pedagogy and Practical pedagogy. The specificity of identifying and solving the problems of socialization depends on the involvement of future PE teachers in scientific and pedagogical research of optimal possibilities for personality development in the constructs of self-realization and self-affirmation. The determination of the socialization category is a complex pedagogically corrected process. The quality of the detailed definitions in the professional education model is a unique tool that guarantees a high quality of solution for developmental issues. The specifics of the choice of the direction for the specification of socialization category depend on the sport chosen by future PE teachers. The quality of socialization as a product of anthropo-sphere and education evolution can be learned from the portfolio kept by the student. The features of high-quality solutions are defined in the pedagogical constructs and pedagogical conditions of modern education, and socialization is no exception as a multidimensional phenomenon and the product of social and educational relations. The specificity of the clarification of the socialization category can be found in the structure of the module "Social pedagogy", "Pedagogy of physical culture and sport", "Sociology of Sport." The Kemerovo State University (Novokuznetsk branch) pays special attention at the technology of system-pedagogical modeling that makes it possible to include future PE teachers into modeling and specification of "socialization" category.

As the Muslim women's movement Nahdlatul Ulama, Fatayat NU has dedicated itself especially to reviving the spirit of gender equality in society. This study uses a descriptive qualitative research design that portrays basic cadre training as an effort to strengthen the spirit of gender equality in Fatayat NU cadres. This research is conducted at the Budossyan Village Hall, Tengaran District, Semarang Regency, which was attended by 50 Fatayat NU cadres. The data collection instruments are observation, interview and documentation. Realizing idealism in gender equality requires hard work from all elements. Fatayat NU is actively empowering women to reach gender equality in society even though in reality they still face many challenges and obstacles. The biggest challenge faced by Fatayat NU is how to fight the patriarchal culture that still dominates women roles in society. The results shows that the implementation of this training is successful in supporting Fatayat NU cadres to be more sensitive to issues of gender inequality by encouraging themselves to take an important role in society. Finally, it is concluded that the realization of idealism in reviving the spirit of gender equality in Fatayat NU still needs to be improved and evaluated periodically so that Fatayat NU cadres can become role models as agents of change in society in achieving gender equality.

The internationalization of higher education results in 4.6 million students attending colleges and universities outside their home countries. In the United States and other countries, there is significant underrepresentation of women among inbound international higher education students. Gender equality in education cannot be achieved so long as women are underrepresented in participation in this important educational venue. To better understand the drivers of gender inequalities in international higher education, this study examines the low participation rate by women coming to the United States by comparing it with participation data for women coming to the United Kingdom and Germany. Gender participation rates from both source regions and countries vary by destination country. By exploring the geography of gender inequality in international higher education, decision makers can better understand barriers to achieving international gender equality goals.

Alignment Model

Policies and actions to address gender inequalities are widespread across a range of institutional and organisational contexts. Concerns have been raised about the efficacy and impacts of such measures in the absence of sustained evaluation of these activities. It has been proposed that important contextual factors may propel or inhibit measures to promote gender equality, including a critical mass of women, role models, diverse leaders and inclusive organisational cultures. This paper explores relationships between organisational justice and equality interventions to better understand gaps between equality policies and practices using a comparative case study approach in a male-dominated sector. A combination of questionnaire and interview data analysis with employees in three case organisations in the construction sector are used to outline links between perceptions of gender equality initiatives and organisational justice, and the mechanisms used to reinforce in-group dominance. The findings culminate in the development of an Employee Alignment Model and a discussion of how this relates to the organisational climate for gender equality work. The findings suggest that the development of interactional organisational justice is an important precursor for successful gender equality interventions in organisations. These findings have implications for those looking to minimize unintentional harm of policies or interventions to improve gender equality.
