Answer to Question 1

Answer: Each student in the jigsaw classroom is assigned a part of the whole lesson to teach to other members of the group. The teacher is no longer the expert; other students are. In order to do well on individual assessments of their learning, students are motivated to help fellow students to communicate the information completely and clearly. If the fellow student is having problems, other students learn that they can succeed by becoming patient and good questioners. The better they become at asking questions and helping the fellow student, the more that student reveals what he or she really knows, and negative stereotypes are revised or abandoned. This leads to increased liking and increased empathy.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: Just-world beliefs refer to our tendency to believe that the world is fair and that outcomes or resources are distributed equitably. Blaming the victimattributing his or her plight to ability deficits or character defectsis motivated by our desire to see the world as a fair and just place. In order to acknowledge that victims may not deserve their plights, we would be forced to acknowledge that the world is not just, and that we ourselves could become victims of injustice.
