IELTS Listening Practice | Mental Gender Differences
About this activity
- This activity is labeled round table by Dr. Hariri, the creator and administrator of LELB Society.
- This activity is on the premise of Flipped Learning, according to which the students watch a video before the class, carry out research into the selected theme, and prepare themselves for an informed discussion in the class.
- This activity is on the basis of both synchronous and asynchronous computer-mediated communication (CMC), according to which the students are also encouraged to be active even before the class.
- In this flipped classroom activity, the students are encouraged to utilize the comment form at the bottom of the post to to exchange their questions, findings, and experiences with each other. Later on, we will discuss the asynchronous activities in the class. In a few words, “let’s learn from each other.”
About the Video Files
- The video files are meticulously selected among the most prominent academicians, lecturers, and scientists based on Google Scholar.
- We might refer to the exact elapsed time ⌛️ of the video files to pinpoint specific statements, messages, etc.
Writing Activity
- You should adopt a formal register in your written contributions in the comment form.
- To give an answer to a question or comment, use the Reply button.
- In our written activities, we can practice negotiation of meaning (sharing our findings with regard to the selected themes) and negotiation of form (performing peer-reviewed error correction).
- Put a number before your questions in the comment form successively to refer to them more easily in the class.
- Your questions should be unique and not previously raised by your classmates in the comment form.
Expectations
- You should take equal turns in speaking. The maximum amount of time you can have is 60 seconds.
- This is a fully organized activity; consequently, all your contributions, including comments, replies, and verbal opinions, must be with direct reference to the assigned topic and its corresponding video. Any irrelevant contribution is strongly frowned upon.
- You will be stopped if your speech appears to be irrelevant or not supported by evidence.
- Students leaving comments below will be given priority over others in our informed conversations.

Men’s brains boxes are same as sequential music on an old cassette! I think. For example in old cassettes you expected to listen Banan (A great Persian singer) after 15 minute from first point of cassette in side A . So no one shouldn’t change this arrange . If any one change It you lose address of that music . To prove my idea its enough to open women’s purse . All Items are mixed in a big bag . I don’t know how they found everything in that ??? But you can see men’s suitcase are always in good order.
6. According to the lecturer, how should men and women interact with each other to relieve each other’s stress?
Women need to talk with somebody so women need someone to listen to them and men prefer don’t talk and go to nothing box, women should leave them alone.
women need listener not solution, so men should listen and don’t give solution.
Precisely, especially according to the lecturer and when confronted with stress.

It’s better to pluralize listeners and solutions.

Good point! This is subject to some controversy. I have a different idea, though. We will surely discuss it in the class.
3. Do you think the empty box in men’s brain helps them to handle challenging situations better compared to women?
Such a great question!
Really its more important box in our brain . Because it’s empty !
An empty glass can contain any liquid . But filled glass can not.
you can solve any issues with empty box . Filled box haven’t any space to clear issues .
Its the reason that mans can solve bigger problems . ( Its my opinion )
2. Why are women more emotional than men?
At the elapsed time [3:05], it was mentioned that women’s multiple-mindedness and their information processing are driven by emotion. I did not find the answer to your question in the lecture. Maybe I need to pay more attention.
Thank you so much. You are completely right. He did not mention it directly in his lecture. I was wondering whether we could come to this conclusion that women are more emotional than men because of the structure of their mind or not.
Good point as this is debatable and proper for our discussion. We will discuss it in the class.
Thank you so much.
It’s my pleasure.
It help them to transfer their feeling better and faster . Why none of women’s schoolmate not answer to questions . They will have better answer I think ?

Thanks for your question and putting a number before that. Please keep doing that in your later questions as well.
Women’s try to share it and solve in their private social. But men’s like to solve stress inside their mind.

Women try — men like
Women and men are already plural.
