Gender identity plays a role in how people see each other and how people react to someone else. In this PowerPoint we take a look at this from the movie "Portrait of Jason"
CLASSMATE 1My score for Hostile sexism is 1.82, and the benevoleVinaOconner450
CLASSMATE 1
My score for Hostile sexism is 1.82, and the benevolent was 2. 73. I compared my scores to the average score of Males and Nigeria. I chose to compare my score with that of the males because our society has a set of ideas about how women are expected to behave, ranging from dressing, speaking, accommodating, and nurturing. The presence of feminism and woman studies has reduced these assigned roles to women; however, the connection still exists. Women still face sexism in the work area and experience a personality trait stereotype where women are expected to be accommodating, stay at home with children, etc. Compared to the Male Average Score, it wasn’t surprising to see theirs higher than mine. I was, as expected, a high score. According to our text, stereotypes, like other cognitive representations, are maintained because the information that confirms our stereotypes is better remembered than information that disconfirms them (Fyock &Stangor, 1994). For example, if we believe women to be bad at math and see a woman with bad scores in math, we quickly remember it compared to a woman with good scores in math. It also applies to my expectation of a higher score of efficiently placing some men discriminate against women even though I have seen men who support women.
The other category I selected was a country (Nigeria). From an African background, I am aware of my social cognition, which is how my knowledge about social worlds influences me as an individual. I was curious to compare how largely I’ve been socially influenced by the social norms of the United States to Africa. Although I am aware of how submissive African women have to be to their husbands and how authoritative some African men can be, I was shocked by how high scores of Nigeria are in both hostile sexism and benevolent sexism. Average Nigerian scores on hostile and benevolent sexism were way higher than those listed on the data. Due to their collectivism, Nigerians are more concerned about interdependence and thus have a high social dominance orientation (SDO). As sexist as I may sound, some of the questions were demeaning to me. For example, question 20, “Men should be willing to sacrifice their well-being to provide financially for the women in their lives,” which I strongly disagreed with. As a wife and mom, I wouldn’t want my husband or son to sacrifice his mental health or health to provide for me financially. I would like to be loved, respected, but not financially sound to the detriment of someone’s health.
2. The “ambivalent sexism” does make sense because it was developed to measure hostile and benevolent attitudes towards women. In contrast to many other forms of ethnic, racial, etc., relationships between men and women are not marked by simply antipathy and negative stereotypes. Sexism is commonly thought to be a manifestation of male hatred against females. This viewpoint overlooks one crucial aspect of sexism: subjectively good attitudes toward women, w ...
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

What is Gender?
Sex is what is biologically assigned to an
individual and Gender is what a person
identifies himself or herself as.
•
•
Gender is not binary; it is a spectrum.
SexualMinorities
3. Sex & Gender
“Sex”refersto thebiological and physiological
characteristicsthat define men and women.
“Gender”refersto the socially constructedroles,
behaviors, activities, and attributesthat a
givensociety considers appropriatefor men and
women.
4. Thus,while sex is permanent and
universal, genderconstruction varies from
onesocietyto another.
Toputit inanother way, “Male”and “Female”
aresex categories,while “masculine” and
“feminine” aregendercategories.
7. • Gender sensitivity tries to ensure that
people rely less on assumptions about
traditional and outdated views on the roles
of men and women.
8.
9. Language matters!
Gender sensitivity often getsexpressedthrough
people'slanguage choice.
We canchoose moreinclusive language and use
wordsthat are gender neutral.
10. Genderdiscriminatory wordsare not innocent -
bymaking womennon-apparent, societywill
seethem as possessing lessvalue.
Genderequalitybenefits both men and women
bygiving them wider choice.
11.
12. Gender Roles
• A gender role is a set of social and
behavioral norms that are generally
considered appropriate for either a man or a
woman in a social or interpersonal
relationship.
13. Socialization
• Gender roles determine how males and
females should think, speak, dress and
interact within the context of society.
• They define what is masculine and feminine.
• Parents, teachers, peers, films, television
and religion teach and reinforce gender
roles.
14. Examples
Someexamples of gender characteristics:
-Women are expectedto take careoffamily
ordomesticduties and remain close tohome
-All men are expectedto work and earn
moneyfor the family
- Boysare betterin mathematics than girls
-Boysnever cry
-Girlsare very emotional
-Women usually do morehouseworkthan men
15.
16. Housework
Mostly, itis women who dothe housework….
Cooking,cleaning, washing etc which is
repetitiveand boring.
Women haveentire responsibility forchild
rearing.
Women haveto look after olderorsick people.
Allthis is unpaid labour / work. Ithas no
economicvalue.
Butit contributes a lotto theoverall wealthof
thenation.
Hence,housework doneby women should be
madea part ofGDP.
21. Conditioning
Asa child, boys gettoys like trucks,guns and
superheroes while the girlsare given dolls
and cookingsets.
Thisconditioning manipulates young minds
intobelieving thattheymustactwithin their
“givenplace” in the society.
22. Challenges
Girls who do not conform to stereotypical
expectationscan experience
criticism,ostracism and even violence.
Thisalso putsunwarranted pressureon boys
wholoveto read,dislike fighting, ordislike
sportsor mechanics.
Gender equality benefits both boys and girls.
23.
24. Benefits
Allowboys to expresstheiremotions, encourage
themto be expressive.Involve them in activities
likegardening and cooking.
Exposegirlsto rolemodels of women in
business, especiallythoseoutside the
stereotype,like doctors,scientistsand leaders.
Theserolemodels willhelpgirlstoseethemselves
in professions outsidethe normal stereotypes.
25.
26. Patriarchy
A worldwidesystem thatpredates recorded history,
the patriarchy is the most powerfulforcein the world
today,trumping otherideologies orpolitical systems
orreligious beliefs.
Byits verynature, it is rooted in thesubjugation of
women.
Patriarchal cultures uphold the privilegesofmen
based on gender,social structures, religious
practices, andlegal codes.
27. Eventhough menare more privileged under patriarchy
than women, some menare more privilegedthan others.
These differences vary according to the culture with its
particular class subsystems and, ofcourse,the castes
basedon physical characteristics like skin colorand sex
that cannot bechanged.
Thesesubsystems can also bebased on lineage, on
religion,or onwealth. Women within the
subsystems, however,always occupy a lowerstatus than
theirmale counterparts.
29. Masculinity
is a set of qualities, characteristicsor roles
generallyconsidered typicalof, or
appropriateto,aman.
Eg:being
aggressive,macho, angry, brave, virile,being
in control.
Expectationof what a ‘real’ man should act
and look like …. Butno one actually is.
Biological factors, culturally constructed.
30. Harmful downside
Relationship betweenmasculinity and
gender-based violence.
Disempowermentand impoverishment of
women and the persistenceof gender
inequalities through men’s violence.
Lossof men's dignity andself esteemwhen
theyare taught to behave violently.
31. Moving out of the box
Women arepushed back into conforming by
various punishments … ridicule, laughed at,
contempt,verbal threats,intimidation, physical
attacks,violence including beating,assault, rape,
murder.
Menalso face challenges … men who listento
theirwives ordisplay sensitivity or do housework
etc….Labelled as joruka ghulam, chakka etc.
Menalso have to be very strong tobreak out.
