Reading With Miss Kirkpatrick
This week in our reading group we have been discussing the way of "Bias" with Miss Kirkpatrick, Miss Kirkpatrick showed us this example.
(eg: There was a time, When more men than women were hired to play in symphonies. For some reason that was not known, the judges preferred male musicians. Today, however, most symphonies listen to the musician applicants from behind a screen so they can't see what they look like. But listen to the ability of the musician.)
By reading this most of us then knew the meaning of bias.
I now know that bias means "You only know one side"
