American University Discrimination Prejudice and Stereotypes Discussion 1. In this week’s Task you will explore prejudice and discrimination.

Read the chapter on Prejudice, Discrimination and Stereotyping in Together: The Science of Social Psychology.

Conduct a search, (e.g., YouTube or Ted Talk) to find at least four videos on the topic of prejudice, stereotypes, and discrimination.

Using the videos you chose, develop working definitions of prejudice, stereotypes, and discrimination.

Remember the The Implicit Association Test (IAT) from Week 7? This week we’re going to revisit the site but choose a different set of tests to explore! Choose three different biases you might want to take a look at and take the test associated with them.

1. Write one paragraph for each term defining prejudice, stereotypes, and discrimination. Describe how these may have shown up for you during your implicit bias tests! PLEASE BE SPECIFIC!

2. Write a 300-500 word paper discussing:

a. the etiology of prejudice, stereotypes and discrimination

b. how bias has changed over the years

c. what you might recommend for how prejudice and biases can be improved

2. In this week’s Lesson you will further explore prejudice and discrimination.

Review the PowerPoint on Prejudice and Discrimination

Reflect on your choices of IAT tests and your scores. Discuss them with a friend, family member, or colleague.

Watch the videos:

Individually or with a friend, family member, or colleague develop a scenario in which prejudice, stereotypes, and discrimination are exemplified. Write an outline delineating when, where, and how discrimination takes place in the scenario. Give examples of how this situation can be rectified.

Prepare an essay outlining a time when you experienced prejudice, stereotypes, and/or discrimination. Who was involved? How did you feel? Do you still experience strong feelings about that particular experience?

Upload your Activity 3 scenario outline and Activity 4 paper to Moodle. Both may be typed on the same Word document
