CAM 3080 Gender & Communication
Gender and communication focuses on interactive relationships between gender and communication in contemporary society. During the course we explore the multiple ways communication in our society creates and perpetuates gender roles; we consider how individuals enact socially created gender differences in public and private settings and how this affects success, satisfaction and self-esteem; and we connect gender theory and research to our professional and personal experience. Throughout the course we discuss not only what is in terms of gender roles, but also what might be, and how we might act to improve our individual collective lives.
