COMM 2071 - Communication and Gender

Institution:

Century College - Minnesota

Subject:

Description:

Communication and gender focuses on the 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 experiences. 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 and collective lives.
