Discrimination in class

Ms. Jane Eliott a third grade teacher gave her students an experience of how to be discriminated and demonstrated the effects of prejudicing even on small children. She convinced the students that blue eye people are superior to brown eye so, a sense of discrimination was put into their minds. The results were bad as she said"I watched marvelous cooperative children turn into vicious discriminative little third graders in space of fifteen minutes". And that demonstrated how discrimination can also affect our academic level. The feeling of superiority or inferiority changes our performance psychologically into the better or the worse.
