Name of Assignment: Sociology Forums
Subject: Sociology 100 Facilitator/Teacher: Professor Perry Each week, I am required to write a forum about a different topic in Sociology. Usually, I write about a concept that I read about that week, and I apply it to real life interactions in society or in the community. I associate these assignments with Global Awareness because I am taught how human interactions affect society, and how I should consider how my actions affect others. I am proud of myself for applying these concepts into everyday life, as I now think about how my actions could affect others. While I like to think that I was aware of what was going on in the world, I now have a different perspective of what is going on. I don’t just see the events happening, but rather I see how the event is affecting individuals. Early on, I was thinking that this course would kind of be like psychology, but it turned out to be very different from what I had in mind. I probably would’ve done some extra research on my own to understand what the concepts were and how to properly apply them. Every new concept I learn and write about in Sociology is a new lens that I use to view back at my life and see events in a different light. Usually, my class reflects on this idea in a blog that we write each week. I can apply the concepts I learn in Sociology when interacting with others, and viewing the events that are taking place in the world around me. |
