This is the first edited collection to focus on women, gender, and history education in Canada. The aim of this edited collection is threefold: to offer a historical analysis of women and gender in K-12 teaching and learning of history; to provide an examination of women and gender in relation to contemporary pedagogy, curriculum, and resources in K-12 history education and teacher education; and, to explore the future of history education when informed by intersectional feminism and gender theory. Readers are introduced to the ways in which women's historical narratives have been repeatedly marginalized, despite the efforts of feminist activists and educators. This collection is the beginning of a long overdue conversation about women and gender in how we teach and learn about the past.
