After completing your reading and “A Class Divided Video” in Module 11, please answer the following questions below:
1. Think of a task that one of the social groups to which you belong is considered to be particularly good (or poor) at. Do you think the cultural stereotypes about your group have ever influenced your performance on a task?
2. In the video “A Class Divided” Jane Elliot conducted a “social exercise” with her class which demonstrated how quickly prejudice and discrimination can occur. What were your main reactions to this video? What surprised you? How did it make you feel while watching it? Do you think these exercises (the one with children, and the one with adults) would yield the same results today? Why or why not?
3. Imagine you are a manager at your workplace and you see some employees expressing prejudice or discrimination toward their colleagues on the basis of their race. What techniques would you use to attempt to reduce these negative behaviors?
