Women rights around the world

This week, we learned about women's right. There are lots of country in the world that doesn't have equal right between women and men. We learn about them in Asia, North America, Europe, and Africa. I and my group got assigned to Europe. We study and found out that Europe doesn't have a lot of problems with women rights. But have some in less developed country. One country that really pops out is Andora, Andora doesn't have equal rights in government or jobs. Some sexual violence but not as harsh as in Africa. In Africa, women can't go to school, they don't have their rights, the cant stand up for themselves so over thousands and thousands of women get child marriage and rape, worse of all, they have traditions of genital mutilation which is used to control women from having something with men because men can't control themselves. Or in Asia, men think that women are nothing but a housewife and take care of children. And lastly, in North America, that women are being domestically abused. All these problems happen because of men. They feel like they are in power and women are under them. Or like the genital mutilation, if men learn to control themselves, so to improve this, we should have laws and educated men and women.

My way of annotating

When annotating, I use highlighter, sticky notes, small bookmarkers and pen or pencil. When I annotate, I divide my highlighter into different colors that mean different things. Some to highlight the main idea, the conflict, the character name, the shocking things or the development in the story. Then I/ use my sticky note to write my opinion about the text or use to a summary a little bit if it gets complicated. Then I use the small bookmarkers to mark the important pages such as the conflict page or other interesting pages so I can see easily. Also, I use the same color of highlighter and bookmarkers for the same topic of use so it is even more clear and easy to see and find.
