The teacher will use DIRECT INSTRUCTION method to

“Okay, our topic for today is all about Bias and Prejudice”
“What is Bias and Prejudice? Kindly read Eula”
“What is Bias and Prejudice?
Bias and prejudice are closely related and
often used interchangeably. Both have a
negative impact on our dealings. Let us
explore the differences between these
concepts. Bias is a tendency to look at things
in a certain way, in preference to another
way. It means a tendency to favor or support
or against a particular one person, group,
thing, or point of view over another
resulting in unfairness.
(The teacher further explains the topic)
“Now, there are 5 common types of Bias. Kindly read Alexe
the first type which is Anchoring Bias”
Common Types of Bias
(The teacher further explains the topic)
1. Anchoring Bias -This happens when
people are too relied on current information
or the initial information they find in
decision-making.
Example: From what I know, I chose you
because I believed others are not as good as
you.
“Next Media Bias. Kindly read Patricia”
2. Media Bias -This happens when the
journalists and news producers in the mass
media select what to report and cover.
Example: As a witness to the incident, I can
attest that the reported news is far from what
I see because the events are reversed and
untrue.
(The teacher further explains the topic)
“Kindly read the next type, Jane”
3. Confirmation - This happens when one
tends to search for, interpret, favor and
remember information supporting one's
belief and views.
Example: When he found out that the report
did not agree with his views, he
immediately researched facts to prove that
he was right.
(The teacher further explains the topic)
“For the next type, kindly read Brenda”
4. Conformity - This happens when one
makes a wrong or uncomfortable decision
to fit in to please the group of people.
Example: Although I did not agree with my
will, I went with them to be happy. I was
ashamed of my own helpless decision.
(The teacher further explains the topic)
“For the last type, kindly read Rose”
5. Halo Effect - This happens when one sees
the wonderful thing about a person and let
the perceptions on everything else about
that person be distorted.
Example: Among the applicants, only Leo's
papers were completely reviewed because
the manager was impressed with his awards
and commendations.
(The teacher further explains the topic)
“What is Prejudice? Kindly read Princhar”
“Prejudice refers to pre-judging before
looking at the evidence. It is an
unfavorable opinion or feeling beforehand
or without knowledge, thought, or reason.
Prejudice can have a strong influence on
how people behave and interact with
others, particularly with those who
are different from another group
(The teacher further explains the topic)
“Now, there are 5 common types of Prejudices. Kindly read
Alexe the first type which is the Racism”
“Racism - This is the idea that groups of
people exhibit different personality
characteristics and can be separated based
on the dominance of one race over another.
Example: All Chinese in the country are
considered virus carriers due to the
COVID-19 disease”
(The teacher further explains the topic)
“For the next type, kindly read Brenda”
“Sexism - This is a prejudice based on sex
or gender.
Example: Women are considered weak and
lack the strength and ability to do the work
of men.”
(The teacher further explains the topic)
“For the next type, kindly read Eula”
“Classism - This is a prejudice based on
social class or grouping of individuals
based on wealth, occupation, income,
education, and social network.
Example: The poor are uneducated and do
not help our country; they should not be
treated well by the government”
(The teacher further explains the topic)
“For the next type, kindly read Dalnaine”
“Ageism - This is a prejudicial attitude
towards older people, old age, and the
aging process.
Example: All adults should not be hired
because they only become a burden,
especially those who deserve to retire.”
(The teacher further explains the topic)
“For the last type, kindly read Sheila”
“Religious prejudice - This is the attitude
towards a person or group differently
because of the particular beliefs about
religion.
Example:
He lost his job because of his religion,
which was believed to conflict with his
employer.
These types of prejudice can also be a form
of bias. Similarly, a person can be biased
because of prejudice. However, prejudice
and discrimination are different. Prejudice
refers to a person's thought or attitude,
while discrimination is the behavior acted
upon by a prejudice regarding a certain
group of people.”
(The teacher further explains the topic)
Application:
“Now, I have here manila paper and pilot pen. I want you to
write bias and prejudices as many as you can and explain how
it affects people. I will only give you 2 minutes to do this
activity”
(Students are writing on the Manila paper)
“Okay time is up! Kindly post your output on the board”
“Let’s start from group 1”
“Yes ma’am”
“Okay very good group 1. Next group 2”
(Group 1 is presenting)
