Hey, everyone.
My character, Kate Henry, is going to be teaching Sociology 101 come the new semester. The course will include the basic ideas, theories, and aspects of sociology either one or two class sessions per week, depending on how many students enroll.
Here's a very basic course outline, just so those of you who play students can get a general idea of what's to come:
1. Introduction to Sociology
2. Culture
3. Socialization and Social Interaction
4. Deviance, Crime, and Social Conformity
5. Stratification, Class, and Inequality
6. Sexism and Ageism
7. Gender vs. Sex
8. Race and Ethnicity
9. Social Change and Social Movement
Incorporated into the lessons will be a lot of group/paired activities and some writing assignments. There will not be a mid-term or final exam, but, rather, essays instead (and don't worry -- I definitely don't expect anyone to actually type up a full 5-6/+ page paper; really, it's not THAT serious.).
Once I get a good idea of how many students will be in the class, I'll be able to decide on whether or not to make a group for the class, what time to have the class meet, etc.
ALSO -- Feel free to IM me in-world, too. If I'm online and not afk, I'll likely answer right away. If I'm offline, an IM -or- notecard is fine.
