Discrimination in a classroom
Q 1
Jane Elliot used blues eyes and brown eyes to make her students realize the meaning of discrimination. The purpose of brotherhood is that we should love and treat each other in a way we would like to be addressed. She used this mechanism of brown eyes and blue eyes to make them understand that by describing people differently to make others feel inferior while their colleagues fell superior (Jane, min 3). This mechanism is significant in that one gets to realize if you can discriminate a person then you can also be victimized, and this brings personality change. It also makes us understand that we are equal and therefore we should not judge others.
Q 2
A class divided students have different opinions and different understanding, and students fight all the time because of poor decision making (Jane, min 4). Such a course, students’ performance will automatically reduce. But after viewing, a class divided can also unite to fight what’s dividing them to improve their attitude. With a positive attitude toward classwork and each other, their class performance improves.
Q 3
I have been discriminated for not performing well in my classwork (Jane, min 5). I decided to join discussion groups, read before the teacher and ask questions whenever necessary. Doing all these improved my coursework performance.
Q 4
Attitude positively influence learning in students. With a positive attitude, they will not feel worthless in society.

The blue eyes student will not feel powerful over the brown eyes student but instead, encourage them in their daily exercises (Jane, min 5). With a positive attitude towards learning children will employ reconciliation rather than retaliation among each other.
Q 5
Participants in Jane Elliot’s experiment felt inferior at that relatively short period; this only means that minority group in our society always feel so inferior for life (Jane, min 6). At the classroom the brown eyes students’ performance reduced, it just implies that in the society the minority group still get discouraged by how the superior group treat them and thus does not perform well in their activities.
Q 6
People who live in poverty, some of the actions made by the brown-eyed students were that they isolated themselves from events that took place in the classroom and they never associated with the blue-eyed students (Jane, min 7). The poor also tend to isolate themselves from the rich people from the fear of being looked down. The brown-eyed students felt like they were being separated from their friend similarly in the society the rich people always talk so negatively about the poor.
