20.500.12556/RUP-21544 Men in educational professions Men have traditionally been underrepresented in the teaching profession, impacting the dynamics of the educational system and gender equality in pedagogical work. This study analyzes the social, cultural, and institutional factors influencing men’s decisions to pursue a teaching career and evaluates their professional experiences. The research is based on quantitative data collected through a survey questionnaire and theoretical frameworks such as Bourdieu’s concept of social habitus and Connell’s theory of masculinity. Findings indicate that men in educational professions often face stereotypes, occupational barriers, and different expectations regarding career advancement compared to their female colleagues. The study provides policy recommendations to promote gender diversity in teaching professions. men teaching profession gender women school moški učiteljski poklic spol ženske šola true false true Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik Neznano 2025-08-12 08:51:52 2025-08-12 08:51:53 2025-08-13 03:03:07 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2025 0 0 str. 115-128 no. 2 Vol. 80 2025 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova NiDoloceno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 2025-08-12 37.011.3-051-055.1 1732-6729 10.15804/tner.2025.80.2.08 245407235 https://czasopisma.marszalek.com.pl/en/10-15804/tner/1505-tner2025/1528-tner80/14496-tner2025208 1 dbd6bc29-7748-11f0-8f0b-005056ac49c0 https://repozitorij.upr.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=31335 RAZ_Krajncan_Mitja_2025.pdf RAZ_Krajncan_Mitja_2025.pdf 1 A43816C1F711C50B0B961416F2263741 5835ee580ee44e8899ea0c4c6d5671ca0f2500d2a7610f3e1eac6f12b4626cbe 089340f6-7749-11f0-8f0b-005056ac49c0 https://repozitorij.upr.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=31336 Pedagoška fakulteta 0 0 0
