Debunking Stereotypes about Middle Eastern Women in the EFL Classroom

The presenters are both teaching English in the Japanese university context: one is Canadian, and the other is Iranian. In this presentation, we first share our personal narratives focusing on Iran, the first presenter’s homeland, and Pakistan, which the second presenter visited. We then talk about our collaboration in our English classrooms to dispel stereotypes about Middle Eastern women. We introduce our projects (e.g., “I Am More Than A Stereotype: Meet An Iranian Woman”, “Exploring Stereotypes”, and “Write4Change”) aimed at helping our learners reflect upon these existing stereotypes, and the impact of these misconceptions on attitudes towards the identity of these women. We also discuss how technology helps us fulfill our goals of challenging stereotypes.
