Hi, AP Lang! You need: Pencil/pen Case Study stuff Warm Up (2/26/15): No journal. What questions do you have about your case study (format, wording, etc.)?

Agenda: Warm Up: What questions do you have? Case Study Evidence & Conclusion: – Evidence: In episode 1 Peggy is a secretary for Don. This establishes the common female stereotype that women must work for males. In episode 8, she becomes a copy writer amongst men. In season 3, episode 4, she is taken more seriously by her male colleagues. – Conclusion: Ultimately, Mad Men does both. It reinforces female stereotypes of women existing just for the pleasure of men (housewife, over sexualized women), but in doing so, it also empowers other female characters. Without the stereotype being evident in some characters, Peggy’s transcendence would not be so important or obvious. Therefore, while Mad Men maintains antiquated stereotypes, it also challenges them and shows that it is possible for women to be dynamic, powerful, yet likable characters. HOMEWORK: – Case Study due Friday – Journal explode = 3/6 When you leave you will have: -utilized strategies for the multiple choice section of the AP Lang exam.
