Abstract
For the past ten years a female anthropologist (with expertise in physiology and linguistics) and a male sociologist (with a back­ground in psychology and philosophy) have team-taught an interdisciplinary course entitled "Sex Roles: Past, Present, and Future."  Two highly useful organizing models pertaining to factors shaping sex roles evolved from this teaching expe­rience.  Combining these models with the assumptions underlying the original format led to significant theoretical and pedagogical insights into the topic of sex roles, stimulating a reformulation of the course. This presentation provides a summary of this experience, together with examples.
