Assignment Steps

Note: the Social, Ethical, and Legal Implications assignment is part of the total marketing plan as outlined in the grading guide. It is not a separate paper.

As you have been witnessing, historically science has been an elite road traveled by the rich, religious leaders, and the privately educated. Today, we are seeing a movement in STEM and STEAM to promote scientific endeavors in the public school system and in the community. In fact, you have just finished a community based science project. Your job is to compare and contrast the ways in which science was disseminated throughout the culture in the renaissance to today. Your ultimate question to answer is...

Is our education system serving scientific thought and the creation of new scientists and scientific discovery?

Hint: You may wish to look at what STEM and STEAM programs are and what the NGSS standards are for public education.

Requirements:

Four different sources using APA citation

500 words or less

A complete thesis statement

- It is often easier to see manifestations of women’s oppression in cultures other than our own, since they don’t seem “natural” to us. However, as we have seen in class, for every issue we have located in “other cultures” we can find an analogous manifestation in the culture(s) of the United States that reveals a shared rootedness in patriarchal society. Offer and explain U.S. analogues to three of the following: stark division of gender roles, son preference, child marriage, and control of women’s sexuality.

-Discuss the origins of human rights discourse and the extent to which it has been applied (or not) to women’s issues we have discussed in class. Provide examples of how women’s lives (stories, issues, voices, ideas) continue to be "silenced" around the world.

- Family has been described as a “mythical haven.” Even though many of us find love and support among and within our families, statistically, it can be a dangerous place for women around the globe and in the U.S. How exactly is it “dangerous” in the context of women’s human rights? Why is it difficult to make motherhood, marriage and family “safe spaces” for women?
