gender issues in developed and developing countries. This will involve
three projects in which you research specific issues of your choice, such
as women's literacy, that will then be written up and presented in small
groups to your classmates. These projects will allow you to practice
reading critically to develop your ability to research and analyze
information and have many chances to talk in English about your work
with others. Issues covered in class topics will include LGBT issues,
gender constructions in media and effective policies for reaching gender
equality in the workplace, as well as others.
