sex, gender, gender expression and attraction.
00:06 - 00:06
For so long.
00:06 - 00:10
The definitions of these terms were absolutely sex and gender
00:10 - 00:11
meant male or female.
00:12 - 00:14
Men were expected to be attracted to women and women
00:15 - 00:16
were expected to be attracted to men.
00:17 - 00:22
Gender expression existed, but there was known between the gender
00:22 - 00:25
bread person aims to educate people about all things surrounding
00:26 - 00:30
gender. It is designed for Children and has concisely and
00:31 - 00:33
concisely breaks down big topics into manageable pieces.
00:35 - 00:40
It focuses on four main areas gender identity, attraction, biological,
00:41 - 00:42
sex and gender expression.
00:44 - 00:47
The Resource provides a lesson plan to guide teachers through
00:47 - 00:47
the content.
00:52 - 00:54
Looking at the structure of HP in the Australian curriculum,
00:55 - 00:58
we can see that the gender bread person could relate
00:58 - 01:00
to several of these focus areas.
01:01 - 01:04
The one that I see most relevant is relationships and
01:04 - 01:10
sexuality. one of the goals and objectives of the lesson
01:10 - 01:14
plan is to help individuals connect and have time to
01:14 - 01:18
consider their own understandings of their sex, gender identity, gender
01:19 - 01:20
presentation and attraction.
01:22 - 01:25
The resource guide students to creating positive relationships with themselves
01:26 - 01:27
regarding their sexuality.
01:28 - 01:31
It can also help them create positive relationships with those
01:31 - 01:34
around them as students will have an understanding and an
01:35 - 01:36
appreciation for gender identities.
01:39 - 01:43
Mhm communicating and interacting for health and well being.
01:44 - 01:48
Is the content description best portrayed in the gender bread
01:49 - 01:54
person. The resource emphasizes the importance of valuing diversity and
01:54 - 01:55
respecting the rights of others.
01:57 - 02:01
The lesson plan uses correct terms and labels and explains
02:01 - 02:03
why we use the label and what it means.
02:04 - 02:08
This creates a culture of respect for LGBTQ people that
02:09 - 02:09
celebrates diversity.
02:11 - 02:17
Here are some examples of that, but we will now
02:17 - 02:20
place a critical eye over the gender bread person.
02:21 - 02:22
Under the light of health literacy.
02:23 - 02:25
Health literacy was added to the Australian curriculum.
02:26 - 02:29
Health and physical education to promote the learning of topics
02:30 - 02:35
including diabetes, drugs, alcohol, dental decay, obesity and body image.
02:36 - 02:39
The gender bread person falls under the body image category.
02:40 - 02:43
It's empowering for students to see themselves for who they
02:43 - 02:46
are and be accepting of that according to nut beam.
02:47 - 02:51
As discussed in the Pacific Journal of Health, Sport and
02:52 - 02:52
Physical Education.
02:53 - 02:55
There are three dimensions of health literacy.
02:57 - 03:01
The first one is functional transmission and understanding of factual
03:02 - 03:02
information on health.
03:03 - 03:05
The employing basic cognitive and literacy skills.
03:07 - 03:11
This is demonstrated in the gender bread person resource by
03:11 - 03:16
using simple language, basic and accurate information that can be
03:16 - 03:17
easily comprehended.
03:19 - 03:23
The second dimension is interactive, more advanced cognitive and literacy
03:24 - 03:27
skills, the ability to make meaning from information communicated and
03:28 - 03:30
apply information in personal and social context.
03:32 - 03:33
This is demonstrated through the worksheets.
03:35 - 03:39
Students need to place themselves on the different scales to
03:39 - 03:41
show that they understand how they perceive themselves.
03:47 - 03:53
The 3rd and final dimension is critical, advanced cognitive and
03:53 - 03:56
social skills which allow us for critical analysis of health
03:56 - 04:00
related information in the capacity to use that information to
04:00 - 04:02
develop personal and community empowerment.
04:04 - 04:07
The activities used in the gender bread person have the
04:07 - 04:08
potential to satisfy this concept.
04:10 - 04:12
The students are given all the information they need to
04:12 - 04:14
be able to understand gender and sexuality.
04:15 - 04:16
It's up to them on how they use the information.
04:19 - 04:22
There is room for improving the health literacy aspect of
04:23 - 04:24
the gender bread person.
04:25 - 04:27
The worksheets that are part of the program only goes
04:27 - 04:28
so far.
04:28 - 04:32
They don't extend the students ways in which their activity
04:32 - 04:35
could be extended is by creating a more interactive activity.
04:36 - 04:39
Students could play games, watch videos and interact with each
04:39 - 04:42
other after completing the base knowledge covered in the worksheets.
04:43 - 04:45
There could also be different levels.
04:47 - 04:49
Some aspects of the gender bread person are too advanced
04:49 - 04:52
for students in near three and 4, for example, discussing
04:53 - 04:54
attraction. Mhm.
04:54 - 04:58
Finally, the resource does not show students how they can
04:58 - 05:02
move forward with this information, which is part of the
05:02 - 05:03
critical dimension.
05:06 - 05:12
Come on at first glance, this resource appears to have
05:13 - 05:15
this have the strength based approach covered.
05:17 - 05:20
We're going to dive deeper and see if there is
05:20 - 05:22
consistency with this proposition.
05:23 - 05:25
There is not an example in the lesson plan where
05:25 - 05:29
the creators allude to the idea that gender expression is
05:29 - 05:33
negative. It takes on a very positive approach, encouraging students
05:33 - 05:35
to be the realist versions of themselves.
05:36 - 05:38
The resource does not mention the risk of stepping outside
05:39 - 05:40
of societal norms.
05:41 - 05:45
Rather, a supportive environment is created through the use of
05:45 - 05:49
the scale the resource underpins one of of the important
05:50 - 05:54
factors of a strength based approach considered it as a
05:54 - 06:02
dynamic and always becoming overall.
06:03 - 06:06
The gender bread person provides students with the necessary based
06:07 - 06:08
knowledge about gender and sexuality.
06:08 - 06:12
Health literacy is covered but has room for improvement.
06:13 - 06:16
The strength based approach was consistent, was a consistent theme
06:16 - 06:17
throughout the lesson plan.
06:19 - 06:21
This is a positive and important learning opportunity for primary
06:22 - 06:24
school aged Children, and it breaks down the topics surrounding
06:25 - 06:26
gender identity well.
