Students on Top: A Vision for 21st Century Sex Education | Nicole McNichols | TEDxUofW

Nicole McNichols, who lectures a Diversity of Human Sexuality class at the University of Washington, introduces a new concept of teaching students about sex: an open source like Wikipedia. She promotes a sex-positive approach, encouraging students to also contribute to our knowledge about sex. Nicole McNichols is a lecturer in the Department of Psychology at the University of Washington in Seattle, where she also received her PhD in Social Psychology. Over the past five years, Nicole has built her class, The Diversity of Human Sexuality, into the University of Washington’s largest and most popular undergraduate course with over two thousand enrolled students each year. She is the co-author of A Critical Introduction to Human Sexuality, an online, interactive textbook that stresses a sex-positive approach to sex education. Her research focuses on the role of interactive platforms in understanding and influencing undergraduates’ attitudes surrounding topics related to Human Sexuality. She is married and has three children. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
