Applying material from Item A and your knowledge of research methods, evaluate the strengths
and limitatons of non-partcipant observatons for the study of the ways in which classroom
interactons reinforce traditonal gender identtess (20)



Non-partcipant observatons are where the researcher simply observes the group or event
without taking part in its Gender identtes is a person's percepton of having a partcular gender,
which may or may not correspond with their birth sexs

Item A suggests that “observing classroom behaviour at frst-hand enables researchers to see
what actually goes on rather than getng a verbal account afer the event”s For example,
reinforcing traditonal gender identtes may involve the rapid exchange of looks and words,
something that cannot easily be captured afer the event through interviews or questonnairess
This is a strength because it means that non-partcipant observatons allow researcher to see
what goes on with their own eyes, enabling them to make judgements and observe the body
language useds For the study of classroom interactons reinforcing traditonal gender identtes,
non-partcipant observatons would allow the researcher to look at the diferent identtes each
pupil represents

Another strength is that non-partcipant observatons is more ethical than a partcipant
observaton, as there is less opportunity for the researcher to infuence the actons of the topic
being studieds However, the researcher may fnd it difcult to stay uninvolveds Item A states
that “some male teachers may even collude with male pupils in ‘putng down girls’”s This may
be because the researcher may see this happening and would want to get involved to prevent
this from happening but would be unable to due to their role and fnding out what they want to
fnd outs

Item A suggests that processes such as the ‘male gaze’ can have an impact on gender identtys In
the context of educaton, the ‘male gaze’ is the way male pupils and teachers look girls up and
down, seeing them as sexual objects and making judgements about their appearances The
presence of the researcher may infuence the behaviour of teachers and pupilss This is called the
Hawthorne efects For example, a pupil who normally displays a hyper-heterosexual identty,
may tone their gender expression down in the company of a strangers This could make the
researcher’s fndings invalid because the results they would obtain is not truthful and would also
be difcult for them to draw conclusions about their researchs

Some schools could have made a special efort to reduce gender inequality and promote more
transgressive gender identtes, for example introducing policies such as GIST and WISE, may be
more welcoming to researcherss This makes the data collected less representatve, as it may
only represent the schools in which there is already more gender equalitys Researchers could try
to overcome this by entering schools under false pretences and doing their observaton covertly,
but as the item states, this would be practcally difcult and may go against their ethical valuess



To conclude, non-partcipant observatons may be a useful method for investgatng the ways in
which classroom interactons reinforce traditonal gender identtes because the researcher
