D. Analysis 1. What are some examples of biases you have encountered in your life? 2. How can recognizing bias and prejudice improve your interactions with others? 3. Why is empathy important when discussing biases and prejudices? 4. How do biases influence our decision-making processes? 5. In what ways can literature be used to challenge societal prejudices? 6. What role does media play in shaping public perceptions of different groups? E. Abstraction Discuss Prejudice is a preconceived opinion that you have based on no reason or actual experience or a multitude of experiences for the specific group or individual. It simply means to pre-judge others. For examples: 1. Some women think one who wears a two-piece swimsuit indecent. 2. Some people believe that Muslims are dangerous. 3. A woman has a fear for a man with lots of tattoos. 4. According to some people a child who came from a broken family is a troublemaker. Bias, on the other hand, means a tendency to favor one person, group, thing or point of view over another, often in an unfair way. A person becomes biased because of unfair favors. For examples: 1. A judge in a competition prefers one contestant to another to win because both of them belong to same place. 2. A white teenager plays with his white classmates not with those of different color. 3. A manager does not hire a more qualified female applicant because for him men are smarter and stronger than women. 4. Boys are asked to do heavy tasks in school because they are stronger than girls. The main point of the objective is to enhance students' understanding of the distinctions between bias and prejudice while fostering empathy. Recognizing these differences can lead to more thoughtful interactions and a deeper appreciation for diverse perspectives. Concepts such as emotional intelligence and social awareness can further reinforce this understanding. 1. Emotional Intelligence: Understanding and managing one’s emotions while recognizing the emotions of others is crucial in navigating biases and prejudices. This concept supports the development of empathy and effective communication. 2. Social Awareness: Being aware of societal issues related to bias and prejudice helps students engage in informed discussions and promotes active citizenship, encouraging them to advocate for inclusivity and understanding. F. Application Teaching Strategy: Project-Based Learning 1. Task: Students will create a presentation or a digital poster that illustrates a bias or prejudice they have learned about, including historical context, real-life implications, and ways to combat it. Discussion: After the presentations, students will discuss how they can apply their newfound knowledge in their everyday lives to promote understanding and empathy. Questions: 1. What are some examples of biases you have encountered in your life? 2. How can recognizing bias and prejudice improve your interactions with others? 3. Why is empathy important when discussing biases and prejudices? Answers: 1. Biases can lead to unfair or irrational decisions based on stereotypes rather than facts, affecting fairness and justice. 2. Literature often provides a voice to marginalized groups, encouraging readers to confront their own biases and broaden their perspectives. 3. Media can amplify or challenge stereotypes, influencing public opinion and shaping societal attitudes towards different groups. G. Assessment H. Assignment Prepared by: Sheila Mae S.
