Essential Question -Equal Pay.



Here we go again...
Journal Entry -What factors lead children into gender roles and what does that mean for equality, opportunity, and expected behaviors that are deemed "normal."  Read the article below and be ready to comment on this...

 Is it ok they way we raise girls and boys as long as there's no stigma attached  for "acting out of the norm".....OR.....should we acknowledge the way we currently raise kids and adjust to prevent the gender roles it creates to end the social effects (positive or negative)

 The article addresses equal pay for women, but explains how society as a whole is responsible (in some way) for the current climate where women are paid lower.
Here is the article


Another great article today, the process of Artificial Intelligence (SIRI or Cortana) and how that tech can be corrupted pretty quick, which raises the question of AI being used for discriminatory reasons without a conscience of impact
