 Hi everyone,

I'm Liz and a junior at Bryn Mawr College. I'm an independent major in Gender and Sexuality with a hopeful film minor. I came from a public high school much bigger than Bryn Mawr, and needless to say Bryn Mawr was a very different academic environment than I was used to. I've never been a very strong math or science student so I'm glad to be taking a science class that's cross listed with education. Though my mother has working in schools and education her whole life, I've never taken an education class. I'm excited for this opportunity to learn more about my own education and the education of others.

Being a Gender and Sexuality major, I would like to look at how both gender and sexuality play a part in the different ways men, women, and everyone else learn and think. There are a lot of debates about gender and sexuality and what's deemed as "biological" versus "social" and this class seems to be a great place to continue that. Coming from an all women's college, I would say I'm a strong advocate for same-sex learning, and I hope this class will allow me to formulate my thoughts about topics such as these in a more articulate manner.
