This learning resource focuses on the concept of implicit bias, exploring its mechanics, real-world implications, and personal reflections. It outlines clear learning objectives and success criteria, guiding learners to define implicit and explicit bias, understand the PB&J analogy relating to mental associations, and examine how hidden biases influence first impressions. Activities include a reflection on societal issues, video comprehension questions to spark critical thinking, and a creative challenge for deeper understanding. This encourages students to recognize their own biases and consider their impact on society, promoting awareness and social responsibility.
