Week 4 - Discussion 1

 8      8 unread replies.    8      8 replies.         

Your  initial discussion thread is due on Day 3 (Thursday) and you have until  Day 7 (Monday) to respond to your classmates. Your grade will reflect  both the quality of your initial post and the depth of your responses.  Refer to the Discussion Forum Grading Rubric under the Settings icon  above for guidance on how your discussion will be evaluated.

   Gender Development    

Gender roles are the combination of attitudes, behaviors, and  personality characteristics that a culture considers appropriate for an  individual’s anatomical sex.  Psychologists have proposed a number of  theories to explain gender typing (LeFrancois, 2012).   

For this discussion, you will choose and analyze two of the  four scenarios in the videos below, and explain how each scenario  relates to the theories that explain gender typing.

  1. Boy Meets Girl (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site.
  2. Free to Be, You and Me – Ladies First (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site.
  3. Free to Be You and Me – Princess Atalantis (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site.
  4. Free to Be You and Me – William Wants a Doll (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site.

What do you think influenced the children in each video?  Next,  explain how your own gender identity may have been influenced by gender  stereotypes.  Finally, what are some strategies you can use in an early  childhood educational setting to avoid gender stereotyping?  

Guided Response:   Review several of your classmates’ posts.  Respond to at least two of  your classmates by providing additional ways that teachers or caregivers  can minimize stereotypical differences in the classroom.  Compare your  classmates’ analyses of the videos to your own, and point out any  differences or similarities that you find.
