In this course, we will explore the vast terminology around the psychology of gender, where students will be able to differentiate between sex, gender, gender identity, gender expression and sexuality.
Students will evaluate social gender roles in Western culture and examine their own perspective of gender through guided discussion.
As an introductory course, no prior knowledge of psychology, sex, or gender is required, but may be helpful.

About the Instructor
I am working on my masters of education in human sexuality and have a degree in integrative neuroscience. My passion is teaching topics around sex and gender as well as helping people explore their identities and biases. As an educator, I like to give my students the tools they need to explore sexuality from an intersectional and global perspective. It is important to me to not aim to change the minds of my students, but rather to guide them in their journey of self exploration.
What will be included in my Virtual Class package?
One ticket includes an access link to your live, online class. The class will be delivered via web conferencing software and feature a live, professional instructor who will walk you through a lesson as described above. You will have the opportunity to ask questions as well as participate from home.
How many people is my purchase good for?
Each ticket is good for one "device" (i.e. one computer, phone, tablet, etc. you'll be logging in from). This ensures we don't get more people in the class than the instructor can handle. Though we understand some people live together and will be working/learning together, the intent is that each class still allows for the same attention to attendees as if students purchased separately. Please be respectful of this!
Will I need anything from home to use in the class?
You will need a reliable Internet connection as well as a computer or device with which you can access your virtual class. We recommend you arrive to class 5-10 minutes early to ensure you're able to set up your device and connection. Additionally, if the class is more than just a lecture you will likely want any materials listed in the course description as "Materials Needed to Participate Fully", though you're welcome to purchase a seat and sit in and just watch.
Am I able to ask questions or interact with the class?
Yes, you'll both be able to ask questions using the chat function in the video hosting software as well as at certain intervals during the class via voice/audio. If the class winds up being on the smaller side, more spontaneous interaction/questions will be encouraged.
Do I have to show my video or speak during class?
While we recommend you do show your video and speak when encouraged to by the instructor, video and audio participation are never mandatory. We find classes have more fun experiences when people are engaging with one another, but understand not everyone will want to do so and that's ok!
