Mustafa Emirbayer,Ann Mische +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors conceptualize agency as a temporally embedded process of social engagement, informed by the past (in its "iterational" or habitual aspect) but also oriented toward the future (as a projective capacity to imagine alternative possibilities) and toward the present, as a practical-evaluative capacity to contextualize past habits and future projects within the contingencies of the moment.

Understanding Sex Differences in Children's Classroom Experiences
Abstract: Despite the common theme that sex-role messages pervade children's schooling experiences, surprisingly little is known about the differences in day-to-day classroom interactions that turn girls into "girl students" and boys into "boy students." Within the public school system, attempts to reduce or eliminate sex inequities have dealt mainly with developing nonsexist instructional materials and providing activities that raise teachers', administrators', counselors', parents', students', and community leaders' awareness of inequitable practices (Lockheed, Finkelstein, and Harris 1979; Womens' Educational Equity Act Program, n.d.).
