Week 0: Introduction

This lesson is intended to help you acclimatize to blended learning and to create a community of learners who will motivate each other during the course. You will be required to introduce yourself to your lecturer and colleagues either physically during a face to face session or even online before other academic interactions start. This will be at the discretion of individual universities and lecturers. It will be important to also state your context and goals as well as what you think about businesses. You can also share any experience that you may have regarding businesses.


Week 1: Differentiating the terms gender and sex

In this first lesson, we lay the foundation for the entire course by defining the concepts of gender, sex and related terms. The purpose of this lesson is to enable you understand fundamental concepts of gender and development

studies.


Week 2: Differentiating the terms gender roles and sex roles

In this lesson, we shall learn about gender-roles and sex-roles. We explore how gender roles and sex roles are acquired. It is noted that gender roles are learnt while sex roles are acquired naturally. The purpose of this lesson is to help you appreciate how the two roles interact to shape the lives and relationships between men and women.

Week 3: Defining the term Development

In this lesson, we introduce you to the topic of development from a qualitative and quantitative perspective. The purpose of this lesson is to inspire you towards modeling the right attitudes towards gender as a key component in development and why it is important to employ a gender perspective in development.

Week 4: The Social Construction of Gender

We have noted earlier in lesson 1 that gender is socially constructed., In this lesson, we will learn how this is done at individual and societal level. We will also learn how the social construction of gender affects the relationship between men and women.
