Social Construction of Difference

What is the Social construction of difference graph?

This template is based on the social construction of difference and equality theory, which describes how people tend to categorize themselves and others. Using the template will provide you with a better understanding of both your social privilege as well as how much you deviate from assumed trait norms in the contemporary United States.

Benefits of using the Social construction of difference graph

While many of Lucidspark’s templates are designed for collaboration, this template is best for individual reflection. It will help you recognize your identities and analyze these findings about yourself. When you’re done filling out the template, you’ll be better positioned to understand yourself and how you relate to those around you.

If you want to unify your team and help them better relate to those around them, this template could be a good place to start. Ask your team members to fill it out individually, then invite them to share their thoughts. Do not push anyone to share, though—the Social construction of difference graph asks you to reflect on some personal aspects of identity that not everyone will want to discuss with others, such as religion, disabilities, gender identity, and sexual orientation. While your team should feel welcome to talk about aspects of their identity, they should not feel obligated.

How to use the Social construction of difference graph in Lucidspark

Use the pins provided in the template to rate where you fall on each scale. You can also create your own pins, using symbols or pictures. When you’ve finished with the graph, move to the reflection portion on the right side of the template. Use sticky notes to highlight what you’ve learned and what points are interesting to you.

If you want to discuss this template with others, try using one of Lucidspark’s integrations with platforms like Slack or Zoom for a seamless experience.
