title: Challenges for teachers of women's health.
abstract: Until recently, nursing literature had not addressed feminist issues and nurse educators have had little experience in programs of women's studies. The author discusses some implications for nurse educators as they relate to the new scholarship of women and a new consciousness of women's health. Factors contributing to the need for particular ways of teaching when dealing with women as students and with women's health experiences as subject matter are addressed. Using specific examples from her experience in teaching an open enrollment course in women's health, the author describes the use of some feminist pedagogical approaches and the students' response to them.
