CTET PAPER II 2019 · PYQ · Gender Issues in Curriculum · easy
Recently there have been conscious efforts to include stories in curriculum where father is involved in household works and mother is doing adventure activities. This move is important because
A.it aims to strengthen gender bias.
B.it aims to eliminate gender stereotyping.✓ Correct
C.it aims to encourage gender constancy.
D.it aims to increase gender discrimination.
Explanation
Including stories that reverse traditional gender roles (father doing household work, mother doing adventure) is a deliberate pedagogical effort to challenge and eliminate gender stereotypes. Such stories expose children to diverse role models and break down rigid beliefs about what males and females 'should' do. This counters stereotypes rather than strengthening bias or discrimination.
