Source: Mancus, Dianne Sirna. "Influence Of Male Teachers On Elementary School Children's Stereotyping Of Teacher Competence."

This source mainly connects with "Influence “CARING AND ELEMENTARY TEACHING”. That study focuses on the importantance of male educators and the view of them as caretakers and educators. Both of them talk about the importance of caring in elementary education. These two studies compliment each other, they are two sides of the same coin. They both look at caring and the male role of education; Mancus study focus on the teachers view while Hansen’s study focuses on the kids view.

"Why Men Become Elementary School Teachers: Insights From An Elementary Teacher Education Program." plays well with the study, it contrast the role of caring with the view of caring in education from men who are entering the field. It highlights that a lot of the time men are pretty oblivious to how important they are in the elementary education system. It highlights them as the “other”.

The study “Elementary Teachers: Male or Female." does not directly support any claims directly. Rather it looks at the positive academic and social benefits of male elementary educators. This one shows that male teachers do teach a bit differently from female teachers and this benefit kids academically by showing a different view.

Etaugh's study is the only source that refutes claim from this study. This study downplays the effects of men in education and says that there is real no positive benefits, academically or otherwise.

This source help understand all the sources but Etaughs better. This study helps color in the other side of most of the other sources. If one focuses on academic this focuses son caring. If one focuses on the teacher this one focuses on the other side of the desk. It highlight synergy between emotional, social and academics in education.

At a party I would be most nervous about this source meeting Etaugh's study. It is like when your conservative-ancap friend meets a socialist friend. The conservation needs to be very guided and find some middle ground. I think settling that there is a bit of truth in both of them will work best.

The other would be easy to introduce. It is like when I introduce one metal-head friend to another metal-head friend. It is an instant click. Each one is a bit different and have similar views but at the same time the fit is simple and natural. They agree on a lot of important topics and they help fill in the blanks of knowledge and information for each other. The conversation would not need to be guided, it would just be a natural fit.
