Can you help me understand this Sociology question?
Watch the film, answer the questions, comment on two classmates’ posts:
Class Divided Film: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1mcCLm_LwpE or http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/shows/divided/etc/view.html
- What historical event motivated a third-grade teacher named Jane Elliott’s to create the “blue eyes/brown eyes” exercise?
- Exactly how did Elliott carried out the blue eyes/brown eyes” exercise?
- While the experiment with children was underway, clarify what the outcomes were for each group? Give specific examples from the film.
- Once the experiment was over, elaborate on how the children interpreted their actions and the actions of others during the experience.
