Alexia Lozano and Gloria Sustaita August 23,2012 Humanities MCLA Eighth Grade

2 Tezkatlipoka - Self Reflection
Some questions we were posed with is who has knowledge,and why do certain people strive for knowledge My research question is What gender do you believe is smarter? I chose this question because girls are always having to deal with discrimination. Girls have to act lady-like .Why can't the boys act like a gentlemen once in a while.

3 Quetzalkoatl - Precious Knowledge - Literature Review
People in Ancient times would think that the brain was an organ that could control thought. Galton believed that intelligence would run in your family. Scientists tried to use pseudoscience to prove that an Englishman was smarter than an African.

4 Quetzalkoatl - Precious Knowledge - Literature Review
Binet was a man that was asked to come up with a method of measuring intelligence He was the man that developed the IQ test. Stereotype threat is making a negative stereotype about a group of people ,therefore makes them self relevant Lastly today's smartness looks like we are just taking test. TESTS!TESTS!TESTS!

5 Huiztlilopochtli – The Will to Act
My research question was what gender do you believe is smarter? I interviewed people. I interviewed 6 different people. I interviewed four females and two males. Three girls and 1 boy say that girls are smarter than boys and 1 female and 1 make say that everyone is equal.

6 Xipe Totek – Transformation
My results can definitely make a change. Males and females do believe that girls are smarter than boys. My results show me that 4 people out of 6 people think girls are smarter that boys 2 out of the 6 people I interviewed thought that everyone.
