Women returners : a study of mature undergraduates and their educational histories

Coats, Margaret A. M. January 1988 (has links)
This thesis contains an account of research into the experiences of a group of women who returned to education as mature undergraduate students at a university in the Midlands. The aim of the research was to discover why such women failed to fulfil their academic potential in the conventional system and their motives for returning to education at a later stage. The study traces their educational histories from initial schooling, through re-entry to education as adults, to their admission to university as mature undergraduate students. A further group of women at various stages of re-entry are identified and described. Their histories are compared with those of the undergraduate sample. The empirical study is set in the context of a detailed discussion of gender acquisition and the experiences, expectations and attainments of girls at school. Two further issues of social class and family circum tances are explored. The current developments within adult education, both policies and practices, are discussed. Finally, the various educational options available to adults who wish*to continue their education are detailed. The study concludes with an analysis of the re-entry points and educational opportunities available to women and stresses the need for relevant information and advice to be made more readily available. An appendix contains a full report of a research project carried out by the author, while compiling a directory of the educational and training opportunities available to women in England and Wales.

Women and the Scottish Universities circa 1869-1939 : a social history

Hamilton, Sheila January 1987 (has links)
This study examines the two-phase development of the movement for the higher education of women in Scotland from 1869 to 1939. The first phase covers the period from the mid-1860s when the movement to gain the admission of women to the Scottish Universities was first begun. The efforts of pioneer women and individual professors were crucial and contributed largely to the foundation of women's educational associations in Aberdeen, St Andrews, Edinburgh and Glasgow. The establishment of lecture courses and university certificates marked considerable progress towards the goal of university admission. This was achieved by the passing of the Universities (Scotland) Act 1889 and subsequent Ordinances which gave the universities power to admit women. The separate dynamics of the medical women's campaign and in particular the role of Sophia Jex-Blake are also examined in same detail. The second phase covers the period from 1892 when the Ordinance admitting women was passed. In this period the levels of integration and acceptance of women students are assessed both at the formal level and at the informal level of integration into the social and corporate life of the universities. Full informal integration did not occur due to the 'separate' nature of many of their social activities including Women's Unions, committees and societies. women students, assessing the patterns and trends of economic and social change as it affected the statistics of matriculation and graduation and the relative position of women compared to men. The social origins of women students are examined revealing through oral evidence and recollections the diversity of perceptions and experiences which occurred within a general middle-class background. The crucial questions raised about the self-awareness of women students are looked at under the key themes of image, identity and consciousness, identifying the feminist perspective in the Women's Debating and Suffrage societies. Finally, the destination and marriage trends of women graduates are examined revealing that the majority of women graduates became teachers and that many did not marry. Thus the study provides a Scottish dimension and insight into the general movement for the higher education of women and reveals some of the perceptions, origins and experiences which shaped the lives of a significant group of women in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
