With partners, answer the following:
1. Where,
when and with whom did this experiment take place?
At
school, in Tuesday and Wednesday, with teacher and students.
2. Describe
the experiment.
The
experiment was to discrimination between brown eyes people and blue eyes
people. In the first day, the teacher praised that the blue people are better,
smarter than brown people. And don’t let brown people play with the blue people
in playground. The result of that one of brown people hit a student from blue
people because he called him brown eyes. In the next day, the teacher has
changed her word that praise the brown people on blue people and brown people
are smarter and better than blue people. Blue people don’t play in playground
with brown people because nobody likes them.
3. What
were the results?
The student realized
that there is no difference between brown or blue people and they are same .
4. How
successful do you believe it was?
In my opinion, it
was very successful to start learn children about the discrimination and they
are same and there is no difference between black and white, blue and brown. Because
the problem sometimes come from the parents that to learn their children bad
things about different people.
