GENDER PROBLEMS
The goal of this second and final assignment is to conduct your own original research in order to flesh out your chosen gender problems topic. This assignment will help you to determine how your gender problem/issue operates as a lived experience in real people’s lives. What do people believe about this topic? How do they make sense of it? How do they experience and explain it? How do they develop strategies to navigate this gender problem? What do they see as possible solutions to this problem? What might stand in the way of implementing these solutions?
Another goal of this second project is to further reflect on your previous library research. Do your interview findings fill a gap in the existing research? Do your interview findings confirm, challenge, modify, or extend previous research? If so, in what ways?
