https://padlet.com/ewinter22/mgjnz13ncrvxshb1 Based on last week’s lecture content and the work you did for the in-class assignment, reflect on the following questions: What do you believe the role of education ought to be in teaching about sexuality? How can our schools become more inclusive spaces via the explicit and hidden curriculum? How can our workplaces become more inclusive spaces? en-us 2023-03-07 13:45:54 UTC 2025-11-13 15:16:18 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.com/ewinter22/mgjnz13ncrvxshb1/wish/2507573129 1. Educational institutions should play a large role in teaching about sexuality, but only if the information is inclusive and accurate. Many children, especially LGBTQ+ youth, do not get adequate sexual education at home, therefore there needs to be a place where they learn about safe relationships, safe sex, and so on. 

2. Schools can become more inclusive by advocating for and using inclusive language when addressing students and faculty. If educational institutions normalize the use of inclusive language, it will become standard for all students as they continue through their educational career. 

3. Workplaces can become more inclusive by also using inclusive language when addressing staff. Additionally, workplaces can encourage all employees to indicate their pronouns so everyone is being addressed properly and individuals are not singled out for stating their preferred pronouns. ]]> 2023-03-07 21:31:02 UTC https://padlet.com/ewinter22/mgjnz13ncrvxshb1/wish/2507573129 https://padlet.com/ewinter22/mgjnz13ncrvxshb1/wish/2507573189 1. We believe that when teaching about sexuality the role of education is to inform students about all genders and sexualities. It is unfair for teachers to only focus on heterosexual relationships and completely exclude LGBTQ2S+ individuals. We also believe that teachers should be open to educating themselves on the evolution of sexuality rights. 

2. Schools can become more inclusive spaces via the explicit curriculum by including all genders when teaching sex education and having a broad representation of sexualities - this would happen by including homosexual relationships and literature in the school curriculum. Schools can become more inclusive spaces via the hidden curriculum by not enforcing dress codes and letting students express themselves however they may choose. Also, having gender-neutral bathrooms within schools.

3. Our workplaces can become more inclusive by having a board of "Diversity and Inclusion" to ensure that all staff feels safe in their professional environment. Another way we can make our workplaces more inclusive is by having zero-tolerance policies for any individuals who pose offensive comments or actions to others due to their sexuality and gender. Also, encouraging the use of pronouns within the workplace. ]]> 2023-03-07 21:31:07 UTC https://padlet.com/ewinter22/mgjnz13ncrvxshb1/wish/2507573189 https://padlet.com/ewinter22/mgjnz13ncrvxshb1/wish/2507574318 1. the role of teaching about sexuality should be formal in the idea of the age group that this education is presented to their students. it should also be essential to educate and to explain the importance of acceptance profoundly and to be cautious of committing to specific things.
2. do not have gender-specific dress coding, bathrooms, or clubs. and don't differentiate certain types of teaching depending on the sex or gender of the audience.
3.  to be welcoming of all sexualities and genders and create a work environment where everyone feels comfortable in their own skin. ]]> 2023-03-07 21:32:33 UTC https://padlet.com/ewinter22/mgjnz13ncrvxshb1/wish/2507574318 https://padlet.com/ewinter22/mgjnz13ncrvxshb1/wish/2507574569 1. this controversy reveals societal attitudes regarding sexuality are relative negative and heteronormative/homophobic. i think schools should have a neutral role in the teaching of sexualities. 

2. changing the teaching of sexuality from a subtopic of physical education to a built-in sex education curriculum which is mandatory for all grades

3. when I worked at sephora, I noticed that instead of hiring model women they became much more inclusive and started hiring anyone that could do makeup not dependent on gender or sexuality norms]]> 2023-03-07 21:32:55 UTC https://padlet.com/ewinter22/mgjnz13ncrvxshb1/wish/2507574569 https://padlet.com/ewinter22/mgjnz13ncrvxshb1/wish/2507574803 the role of education has developed in past years, considering new material even in universities. In the future we could implement or inclusive, and comprehensive ways of learning about sexuality. We can include ranges of content; while making it a priority so for example include gender neutral bathrooms. Gender specifications are popular in the school system (from what we can remember) so it is important to get rid of those ideologies and make things inclusive. In workplaces we can also implement more inclusive spaces; make sexuality and different identities important with colleagues and with the company. ]]> 2023-03-07 21:33:15 UTC https://padlet.com/ewinter22/mgjnz13ncrvxshb1/wish/2507574803 https://padlet.com/ewinter22/mgjnz13ncrvxshb1/wish/2507574883 - We believe that the role of education in teaching about sexuality should not be entirely relied on the parents to teach their children about this topic. It should also be the school's responsibility to teach children topics on sexuality. Parents would often have bias limited views, which can be passed on to their children. In the school system, all children would get a uniform education with limited biases. Not all children have parents or parents that would be willing to discuss such topics with their children. 
- Schools can become more inclusive spaces by upgrading their dress codes to so that it is not sexist towards females. Schools can also teach students to not use gendered terminology and use gender neutral pronouns. 
- Workplaces could provide an area on their company shirt to have their employees include their preferred pronouns. Also having unisex uniforms.

Education should provide students with the necessary knowledge and abilities that are required in staying safe and healthy regarding sexual health and sexual activity. 
2. Within the explicit curriculum, students should be taught about the sexualities of all races, genders, and sexual orientations. With this knowledge, educational institutions can break down stigmas with sex and sexual health, such as the spread of HIV within the LGBTQ+ community.
In regard to hidden curriculums, institutions should slowly break down gender norms within the classroom. Classes such as phys-ed and auto shop should advertise to all genders, allowing an inclusive environment for every student to learn.
3. Workplaces can become more inclusive through the invitation and acceptance of all genders, sexualities, and cultures. This way all people can feel welcome and secure in their work environments.]]> 2023-03-07 21:33:44 UTC https://padlet.com/ewinter22/mgjnz13ncrvxshb1/wish/2507575164 https://padlet.com/ewinter22/mgjnz13ncrvxshb1/wish/2507575323 1. Informing students, teaching students about safety, leading them to make safer choices, schools can be open regarding the history of LGBTQ and shouldn't be closed off around it.
2. Not splitting genders, making everyone feel welcomed. Schools should provide the option of having all-gendered bathrooms, open more clubs, 
3. Introduce name tags with preferred pronouns section, creating a safe space, being mindful of different holidays ]]> 2023-03-07 21:33:57 UTC https://padlet.com/ewinter22/mgjnz13ncrvxshb1/wish/2507575323 https://padlet.com/ewinter22/mgjnz13ncrvxshb1/wish/2507575410 1. Schools should be teaching sexuality as it gives students a way to learn about sexuality and others sexualities. it also provides a gateway for expanding knowledge on your sexuality. 

2. Schools are very vague when it comes to sexuality so by adding small changes like universal bathrooms, changing dress codes and expanding/being more inclusive in the curriculum it can make students more open about their sexuality and not having heteronormativity being the "norm".

3. Addressing people with proper language (pronouns), altering workplace dress codes (still providing guidelines but less strict), universal bathrooms.]]> 2023-03-07 21:34:03 UTC https://padlet.com/ewinter22/mgjnz13ncrvxshb1/wish/2507575410 https://padlet.com/ewinter22/mgjnz13ncrvxshb1/wish/2507575574
1. I believe the role of education in regard to sexuality should be a educational, supportive and diverse one. 

2. Schools can offer more training and workshops to promote inclusivity within the education systems.

3. Workplaces can offer more training and workshops as well to better educate there employees and create a more inclusive space. They could also offer incentives such as bonuses and paid days for employees to want to participate

Parents should teach basics, education in schools should be in depth. Mental health, safe sex, LGBTQ2S+ sexuality and gender identities should also be taught. History of gendered/sexual ineuality like the AIDS crisis.
2. Gender neutral bathrooms, elimination of gender roles in prom, promoting gender language and pronouns. Talking about barriers and lines to not cross. Avoid making assumptions. Using support like teachers, guidance counsellors etc.
3. Training exercises with all levels from CEO, HR, managers & hiring diverse people who can discuss their lived experiences. Sexual assault training for EVERYONE, not just women. Ensuring inclusive benefit packages, support groups & policies.]]> 2023-03-07 21:34:35 UTC https://padlet.com/ewinter22/mgjnz13ncrvxshb1/wish/2507575856 https://padlet.com/ewinter22/mgjnz13ncrvxshb1/wish/2507576137 Role of education in teaching about sexuality:  Should be approached in the same way as other subjects in that it has an outline/ overview and shared with parents about what will be taught specifically to decrease mistrust in what is being taught. By separating it from other subjects, there can be more misunderstanding of what is being taught and that attributes to the stigmatization of the topic. The topic of sexuality should be comprehensively explained to parent/cargivers and students to reduce miscommunication. 
Schools more inclusive spaces: bathrooms should include one for gender neutral access and more co-ed gym classes. Dress codes should be neutral to all sexes & kids should be able to wear whatever they choose within guidelines.
Workplaces more inclusive: individual bathrooms, having policies and procedures in place to structure the organization as well as signs welcoming open discussion on any topic. ]]> 2023-03-07 21:34:59 UTC https://padlet.com/ewinter22/mgjnz13ncrvxshb1/wish/2507576137 https://padlet.com/ewinter22/mgjnz13ncrvxshb1/wish/2507576229 1) The education system should be responsbile for teaching students a diverse and all-inclusive sexual education.

2) Schools can become more inclusive spaces by not dividing the genders in sex-ed classes and inviting diverse guest speakers to add to the diversification of sexual education.

3) Our workplaces could be more inclusive by celebrating diverse holidays that do not follow the Christian calendar.]]> 2023-03-07 21:35:06 UTC https://padlet.com/ewinter22/mgjnz13ncrvxshb1/wish/2507576229 https://padlet.com/ewinter22/mgjnz13ncrvxshb1/wish/2507576861 1. we feel believe that role of teaching about sexuality is important in education. It ensures that at every age group you are being taught about the different apects about sexuality and people are more informed and confident in making their decision about their sexuality. 

2. By ensuring that the curriculum is in place at each stage of education and not just in middle school. 

3. in the workplace, we can include the use of pronouns of people on their name tags or their badges at work.

Schools should teach about all sexualities and identifications, as well as the importance of acceptance and respect to LGBTQ+ individuals and communities. They should understand the basics of gender and sexual identities and should be taught that it is okay be express yourself the way that you need.

2.schools can be more inclusive by having speakers of all sexualities to share their experiences with their sexuality and their journeys as well as allowing the LGBTQ+ community to have a say in what aspects they would like to be built into the curriculum

3.The workplaces can be more inclusive by allowing individuals to have their own pronouns as their label]]> 2023-03-07 21:38:34 UTC https://padlet.com/ewinter22/mgjnz13ncrvxshb1/wish/2507578868 https://padlet.com/ewinter22/mgjnz13ncrvxshb1/wish/2507579297 Zaria Gibbons, Rahaf Abukhattab, Payton Michaud, Othniel Grindley, Matteo Tullio

1. We believe that the educational system has an obligation to teach young students about all sexual orientations and sexual activities. 
2. Our schools can become more inclusive spaces by having universal uniforms, this prevents individuals from feeling as if they need to pick or conform to a particular gendered type of clothing.
3. The workplace can become more inclusive by incorporating pronouns to name tags and having gender-fluid uniforms.]]> 2023-03-07 21:39:10 UTC https://padlet.com/ewinter22/mgjnz13ncrvxshb1/wish/2507579297 https://padlet.com/ewinter22/mgjnz13ncrvxshb1/wish/2507580021 1. Education is essential in educating people about sexuality because it can help them realize the value of respecting diversity and adopting safe practices, as well as assist them in building a healthy and positive attitude about sexuality. Students should be given accurate, age-appropriate, and culturally-sensitive knowledge on sexuality in order to help them make educated decisions about their sexual health. Also, sexuality should be discussed openly and respectfully in school, covering issues like consent, sexual orientation, gender identity, and healthy relationships. This can assist people in acquiring the abilities needed to interact with partners effectively and make healthy decisions regarding their sexual conduct. 
2.  Explicit Curriculum: Schools can incorporate diversity and inclusion into the curriculum, which means they can instruct students about different cultures, identities, and experiences through literature, history, and social studies. The explicit and hidden curriculum will help schools become more inclusive spaces. This can encourage students' empathy and understanding and help them comprehend and value diversity. They can also offer inclusive sex education, which emphasizes consent, respect, and healthy relationships and should be open to all genders and sexual orientations. Finally, they can employ inclusive language, which means that all children, regardless of their identities, should be included in the language used in schools.
Hidden Curriculum: Ensuring that children from all backgrounds feel secure and welcome by promoting inclusion via school policies and practises. Schools can achieve this by implementing anti-bullying measures, for example, and by adopting other policies. Also, by receiving training in cultural competence, diversity, and inclusion, teachers can benefit and improve the inclusiveness and hospitability of their classrooms. Lastly, by encouraging a feeling of community meaning, schools can foster a sense of community by encouraging student cooperation, respect, and teamwork, as well as by including parents and community members in school events.
3. Workplaces can become more inclusive spaces by focusing on recruitment strategies, connecting with employees, offering employee resource groups, promoting diversity in leadership positions, and having name tags with each employee's pronouns. ]]> 2023-03-07 21:40:08 UTC https://padlet.com/ewinter22/mgjnz13ncrvxshb1/wish/2507580021
