*MC309: GENDER SENSITIZATION LAB

(An Activity-based Course)

B.Tech. II Year I Sem. L T P C

0 0 2 0

COURSE DESCRIPTION
This course offers an introduction to Gender Studies, an interdisciplinary field that asks critical
questions about the meanings of sex and gender in society. The primary goal of this course is to
familiarize students with key issues, questions and debates in Gender Studies, both historical and
contemporary. It draws on multiple disciplines – such as literature, history, economics, psychology,
sociology, philosophy, political science, anthropology and media studies – to examine cultural
assumptions about sex, gender, and sexuality.

This course integrates analysis of current events through student presentations, aiming to
increase awareness of contemporary and historical experiences of women, and of the multiple ways
that sex and gender interact with race, class, caste, nationality and other social identities. This course
also seeks to build an understanding and initiate and strengthen programmes combating gender-based
violence and discrimination. The course also features several exercises and reflective activities
designed to examine the concepts of gender, gender-based violence, sexuality, and rights. It will further
explore the impact of gender-based violence on education, health and development.

Objectives of the Course:

 To develop students’ sensibility with regard to issues of gender in contemporary India.
 To provide a critical perspective on the socialization of men and women.
 To introduce students to information about some key biological aspects of genders.
 To expose the students to debates on the politics and economics of work.
 To help students reflect critically on gender violence.
 To expose students to more egalitarian interactions between men and women.

Learning Outcomes:
 Students will have developed a better understanding of important issues related to gender in
contemporary India.
 Students will be sensitized to basic dimensions of the biological, sociological, psychological and
legal aspects of gender. This will be achieved through discussion of materials derived from
research, facts, everyday life, literature and film.
 Students will attain a finer grasp of how gender discrimination works in our society and how to
counter it.
 Students will acquire insight into the gendered division of labour and its relation to politics and
economics.
 Men and women students and professionals will be better equipped to work and live together
as equals.
 Students will develop a sense of appreciation of women in all walks of life.
 Through providing accounts of studies and movements as well as the new laws that provide
protection and relief to women, the textbook will empower students to understand and respond
to gender violence.
