Student's feedbacks and reflections (oral or written)
We all grew up in different families, and this determines our career of life. Most of the students chose pictures connected to their family models. The majority of the participants formed a negative opinion about the same-sex couples and families; others accepted them, although they do not consider them naturally. The professions what students are learning are going to be the results of their family models in which they brought up.
Evaluation It was a bit complicated for the students to talk about their family background. Nowadays, the bad influence of the society causes the negative opinions of the couples of the same sex. The teachers’ role is not to educate but also to talk about difficult topics and if there is a need of some kind of explanation, they have to be always ready to help. They should teach and develop how to accept, tolerate and respect each other, how to be empathic, which are the most important values while choosing their career.
