The Impact of Gender Stereotypes - Lesson
This is the third of three lessons that address gender stereotypes. The objective of these lessons is to encourage students to develop their own critical intelligence with regard to culturally inherited stereotypes, and to the images presented in the media - film and television, rock music, newspapers and magazines.
The Girl in the Mirror - Lesson
In this lesson, students look at how gender stereotyping may discourage young women from becoming involved in politics.
