Gender Key Terms
On Thursday we reviewed key terms associated with Gender and began to discuss psychological gender differences and where their origins might lie. In Thursday's lesson we will look in detail at the biological determination of sex and possibly gender, and the different strands of evidence on which it is based.
Here is the presentation which covers both lessons. It would be useful to have a look ahead at it.
Homework for Thursday which I didn't set in the lesson:
Research human sex chromosome abnormalities. What syndromes / conditions are caused by unusual combinations of sex chromosomes? What are these people like? How useful is this as evidence for tackling the nature / nurture question of gender development? Collect your findings / thoughts on a piece of paper and bring it on Thursday.
