Original Prompt

implicit bias using “Pipeline” as source.

This learning resource focuses on analyzing implicit bias within the context of social pipelines. It aims to help students collaboratively identify and understand the manifestations and impacts of implicit bias, as well as potential interventions that can be applied to address systemic inequalities in educational and career settings. By exploring the 'pipeline' concept—like the school-to-prison pipeline and the leaky pipeline in professions—students will examine how automatic, unintentional attitudes and systemic issues lead to discrimination and inequitable outcomes. The resource includes activities such as Think-Pair-Share, expert group analysis, case comparisons, and collaborative writing exercises to facilitate deep discussions and critical thinking about implicit bias and its effects on various social systems.
