Question

mr. lowry always gives foreign students lower grades on their essays because he assumes their english is not good enough to deserve a good grade. this is an example of: a. prejudice. b. norming. c. discrimination. d. stereotyping.

Explanation:

Discrimination involves acting on prejudices or stereotypes by treating a group (foreign students here) unfairly. Mr. Lowry is acting on his assumption (stereotype) by giving lower grades, which is differential treatment. Prejudice is the attitude, stereotyping is the over - generalized belief, and norming is about group development, so discrimination (acting on bias to treat differently) fits.

Answer:

C. discrimination.
