Problem Based Learning Methodology
1. Problematize to raise the analysis
2. We get informed/ We play/ We investigate/ We propose (call to action).
3. We work towards our final products during the two days together.
PROBLEM STATEMENT
Gender-based prejudices have a big influence throughout life (school, workplace, family and institutional framework).
Working questions:
- Do you consider that you have chosen your educational career freely?
- If not, what has affected in your decision?
- Why do you think there are some masculinized or feminized sectors?
- Which are the main consequences of this?
- What does it mean to be a woman in the labor market?
- Which are the main inequalities and who are the most affected?
- What can the students and the schools do to take part in the change?
