1.Think about your early years of education (elementary through high school) and identify that which influenced and/or impacted you. Consider your family life, friendships (or lack of), specific classrooms, teaching styles, teachers, other students, etc. What stuck with you and what have you let go? Do early experiences “build character” or perhaps linger?
2.We have all heard about the girl who wanted to join the wrestling team and the boy who wanted an EasyBake oven. Think about some of your earliest experiences with gender. Consider at school, extracurricular activities, your parents, your friends, etc. Discuss gender roles, stereotypes, myths, and/or controls in society that existed then and you see exist today. Do you feel that males or females have more or less “controls” placed on them by society? Is it fair? Do you believe that boys and girls/men and women should stick to the qualities, interests, etc., that society deems appropriate for their gender?
3.Discuss which video had the most impact on you and explain why. Include in your response your interpretation of the “me” society in our world today. Consider whether one can be “successful” without being selfish in today’s society. And what about selflessness? Is there a place for selflessness in our society today?
4.How do you feel about “giving back” or “paying it forward?” Despite your own everyday difficulties and responsibilities, have you ever asked yourself, “How can I help?” Have you any experiences to share? Consider some of the many ways that one can “pay it forward” and share them here with your fellow students. Please note that many ways are so simple! Smiles and thumbs up are free!
5.Creating a multi-source paper is a process. A process involves steps. Looking back on the writing assignments this session, create a list of these steps—from assignment to final draft. In future coursework in your major, if a multi-source paper is assigned, how will you approach the assignment?
6.First, reflect on the five modules completed this session, and identify the readings, assignments, and discussions you found most valuable and enjoyable.
