	"Throughout history societies and cultures have evolved exhibiting a predilection towards the male species...in the twentieth century, however, women have emerged as a force in politics and in business...In the field of education...the problem of gender equity still exists. I address this problem by encouraging class participation from both male and female students and offer appropriate feedback, positive and negative, to both genders...Heterogeneous groups are established where students equally have opportunities to ask questions, discuss ideas, make mistakes, learn to listen to others and offer constructive criticism."
