This study describes the theory and design of a pedagogy that attempts to help men to develop new ways of being male that are less oppressive to women and more fulfilling to men. The goals of this pedagogy are summarized with the terms: autonomy, androgyny, awareness, and activism. These goals are based on an integration of three alternative models of masculinity: the "liberated man," the "androgynous man," and the "anti-sexist man." The need for the study is established through a description of the current societal transition in male role norms, an exploration of the critique of traditional masculinity, and a review of existing approaches for educating men about sex roles and sexism. The study demonstrates that these approaches are inadequate because they have limited objectives and/or do not take into account both key facets of men's identity in regard to this issue: the limitations imposed on men by traditional sex roles, and men's role in the oppression of women. A theoretical model for a more adequate pedagogy for "raising men's consciousness" about sexism is developed through a review, critique, and synthesis of four relevant educational approaches: human relations training groups (T-groups), Paolo Freire's education for critical consciousness, feminist consciousness raising groups, and anti-oppression education. The implications of a developmental perspective on men's identity for how the pedagogy should be implemented are then explored through a review of several theories of sex role identity development and male identity development, leading to the articulation of a more differentiated model that can explain developmental patterns experienced by men. A college course, "Men and Masculinity," which was designed on the basis of the pedagogical model, is described in detail. An informal evaluation of the course's effectiveness in meeting its objectives is reported. Based on an analysis of students' written materials and of pre and post scores on the Personal Attributes Questionnaire, the Women's Liberation Scale, and a questionnaire on "Men and Sexism," there were significant increases in androgyny and activism, with smaller but still significant increases in androgyny and activism.

Traditionally, appeals for improving the teaching of psychology at the post-secondary level have focused on increasing teacher training and motivation. However, wide-scale success may be limited because both approaches involve significant demands on teachers' time. I describe two recommendations that may improve teaching while requiring minimal time investment from individual teachers. The first is the development of an end-of-major assessment taken by undergraduate psychology majors that would provide valuable feedback to teachers on which areas of the curriculum need improvement. The second recommendation is to create a new database of research on teaching and learning that focuses on streamlining relevant information and improving user-friendliness through the use of a wiki interface. The feedback from the end-of-major assessment would link to the sections of the database that might prove most beneficial for improvement of the curricular areas indicated. Suggestions are provided for immediate implementation of both recommendations.

A supervisão em Psicologia nas universidades é um espaço privilegiado de aprendizagem, ancorado principalmente na relação que se estabelece entre estagiário e o professor-supervisor. Esta pesquisa apresenta um estudo que enfoca a prática de supervisão em universidades do Brasil, Portugal e Uruguai, a fim de identificar e descrever o percurso realizado pelos participantes para se tornarem supervisores de psicologia clínica nas universidades pesquisadas, analisar os pré-requisitos necessários para ser um supervisor, discutir a importância da vivência prática para garantir a qualidade da supervisão traçando aproximações e diferenças nos diferentes países. Foram entrevistados 13 professores supervisores de estágio em psicologia clínica de duas universidades de Portugal, uma do Uruguai e três do Brasil. Foram escolhidos Portugal e Uruguai, o primeiro por ser submetido a declaração de Bologna, documento que legisla sobre o ensino superior na Europa, e o segundo por ser membro, junto com o Brasil, do Mercosul, que apresenta diretrizes comuns para o curso de Psicologia nos países da América do Sul. O método proposto é o qualitativo, por meio de questionário e entrevista semiestruturada elaborados pelo pesquisador com supervisores das diferentes universidades. Para análise e discussão utilizou-se análise de conteúdo. Os resultados apontam que tornar-se supervisor é um processo natural que se inicia com a docência teórica em sala de aula nos três países estudados, embora todos os participantes considerem a presença de pré-requisitos específicos para ser um supervisor de estágio, já que a supervisão é um espaço que convoca uma posição de maior proximidade entre supervisor e supervisionando. A pesquisa pode trazer contribuições para um estudo mais aprofundado dos instrumentos de ensino-aprendizagem em psicologia nas universidades, a partir de critérios mais objetivos e sistematizados de enquadre, manejo e didática da supervisão. Uma formação específica para se tornar um supervisor clínico foi considerada uma estratégia positiva / Supervision in Psychology at universities is a privileged learning space, anchored mainly in the relationship established between internship and supervisor. This research presents a transnational study that focuses on the practice of supervision in universities in Brazil, Portugal and Uruguay. Its purpose is to identify and describe the course taken by the participants to become supervisors of clinical psychology in the researched universities, to analyze the necessary requirements to be a supervisor and to discuss the importance of practical experience to guarantee the quality of supervision, drawing approximations and differences among the countries involved in the study. Thirteen (13) intern supervisors were interviewed with emphasis on clinical psychology from two universities in Portugal, one from Uruguay and three from Brazil. Portugal was chosen because it is submitted to the Bologna Declaration, a document that legislates on higher education in Europe, while Uruguay was chosen because it is a member of Mercosur along with Brazil, which presents common guidelines for Psychology courses in countries of South America. Qualitative method was chosen, which was done through a questionnaire and semi-structured interview elaborated by the researcher with supervisors of different universities. A content analysis was used as a method for analysis and discussion. The results show that becoming a supervisor is a natural process that starts with theoretical teaching in the classroom in these three relevant countries, although all participants consider the presence of specific requirement to be an intern supervisor, since supervision is a space that calls for a more close interaction between supervisor and supervised. The research can contribute to a more in-depth study of teaching-learning instruments in psychology in universities based on objective and systematized framework criteria, management and supervision didactics. Specific training to become a clinical supervisor was considered as a positive strategy
