SALINAS BOLDO, Claudia. Gender equity as a learning unit in the university. Alteridad [online]. 2018, vol.13, n.2, pp.180-191. ISSN 1390-8642.  https://doi.org/10.17163/alt.v13n2.2018.02.

This research describes an educational experience on the subject of gender equity, with a learning unit aimed at university students from various areas, in the online mode, in a semester period. This learning unit that is taught for the first time in the university, is a way to promote gender equity and combat the problem of violence by denaturing it and understanding the responsibility that every student has in the reproduction of inequality, and also as a change promoter. The objective of this work was to analyze the learning reflections carried out by the 18 students who participated in the course, through three inductive categories: patriarchy, violence and equity, built on the basis of the units of the course. To achieve this, a collection of the final sections of their tasks was carried out. The analysis of these sections, identified as “learning reflections”, indicates that students consider that patriarchy is a historical construction, that we have learned to see gender violence as something natural and that equality and equity are not same. Likewise, it was found that the students were able to link these concepts with situations from their immediate contexts, and were able to recognize themselves as factors of change.
