ageism
was thinking old but of course would be as relevant on ageism against young people...

any ideas
films
relevant news storeis

In the past I have used an article on an older mother giving birth. This was for year 10 health & social care students. Have also held up the sign "only 2 school children allowed in the shop at any one time" this is always a heated debate as they relate to it. I actually held this up for a general debate on discrimination but we ended up in an age debate if that makes sense.

REAT NAME BTW

THAT IS A FAB IDEA
have done that
also the paddy power advert of old people crossing road

great name
not reat name

look at this

thinking about the older mother you could flip the idea and get a story of a young mother and explore people's perception of her ability to be a good mother.

must have crossed posts. That video looks great.They'll love it How longs the lesson and what year group?

predjuce

id love to show this it hink
but am not sure

think am going to out your no kids allwoed sign before the old mum one

see what they think

when I was at university one of the lecturers split the room up into blue eyes and brown eyes and treated us differently for the day eg we were allowed to take notes with pencils and they were only allowed to listen, they had to sit on their hands etc. That had a big effect on me. Could you split the class as summer and winter born and do that. They may be too young for that though. Also, I am not sure if you are allowed to do it

yes haev done simmilar wiht hair lenght
they do nothign to stop the discrimination!
love this

What age students?

One thing I have found students really relate to, is when we look at ageism against them. They will readily tell you of stories about how they get followed around stores because the security guards suspect them, because of their age, or they're expected to be up to no good because they have got hoodies on and so on...

Usually makes for a good starter into the subject.
