Using the chalkboard or overhead, instructor or student volunteer writes down student contributions to the list. When a list is compiled, have students find themes common to all the words, expressed as strong statements. List on board as many of these examples as possible. When list is compiled, try to find common points among them, and write these points down. Discuss each scenario, trying to reach consensus.
Students work out quick skits with sexist themes.
Their skits may be clear and direct, or they may want to try more ambiguous situations. All group members should be involved in the improv, in some way, even if it's a non-speaking role. Ten minutes in a corner of the room or out in the hallway usually is enough time for the students to prepare. Groups present their skits to the class. Class analyzes skits in the same way students analyzed sample scenarios.
