Identify, summarize, and understand the concepts and arguments presented in the Steinem reading, If Men Could Menstruate that is attached. Identify a different situation, concept, or identity that is associated with socially constructed ideas of power and privilege Develop your own “political fantasy” to share with classmates. For this assignment, you will do the following: At the heart of the Steinem piece is the following quote, “In short, the characteristics of the powerful, whatever they may be, are thought to be better than the characteristics of the powerless—and logic has nothing to do with it.” Use this quote as the guide for how to write your own political fantasy. Write a brief (500 – 750 words) discussion post that is inspired by the reading If Men Could Menstruate. For this discussion you will identify a concept, practice, or policy this is built around the social construction of one group’s identity. Similar to the Steinem piece, you will have to identify what the assumptions are of the group who holds less power and imagine what would happen if that characteristic was a part of the group who holds more power. An example could be to imagine if men could give birth, or if heterosexual people were asked how they knew they were heterosexual. You will then describe how that concept would become appropriated or understood as source of pride, strength, or justification of their social position. .

Applying the Sociological Imagination Essay Guidelines The sociologist C. Wright Mills writes in The Sociological Imagination (1959), “The first fruit of this imagination – and the first lesson of the social science that embodies it – is the idea that the individual can understand her own experience and gauge her own fate only by locating herself within her period, that she can know her own chance in life only by becoming aware of those of all individuals in her circumstances.” Mills argues that in the effort to think critically about the social world around us, we need to use our sociological imagination to see the connections between our personal “problems” and the larger forces of history. Mills maintained throughout The Sociological Imagination that it is very difficult for most individuals in society to link their personal troubles to the socio-cultural institutions in which they live. In this paper, you are to use your sociological imagination to analyze a personal problem, past or present, connecting it to a broader social issue embedded in a social and historical context. For example, you may consider the dynamics of a personal relationship/hardship, your job or lack of a job, family dynamics, juggling work and school, drug or alcohol use/abuse, your body image, or securing school financing. For those students who are not clear what topics to write on or doubtful if their topics are good to write their essays on, I have a few general pointers for everyone. Before you select a personal situation/topic, think if you … - can write 4-6 pages on that topic. - will be able to use concepts from at least 3 different Conley chapters while discussing your personal situation. - can fit in one of the sociological theories we have studied in the text. - can find research data to support your analysis. If you can do all the above, then you are good to go. You have 5 content areas to take care of in this area. They are numbered below. 4 of the 5 areas need to be labeled. The 4th content area which includes use of stats and research material to substantiate your analysis should be integrated within the 3rd content area. Here is the assignment #1. First, write an introductory paragraph introducing/defining C.W. Mill’s concept of “sociological imagination,” and giving a general overview of how you’ll be applying it in your paper using a ‘personal’ issue of yours. #2. Second, explain how you are dealing/dealt with the personal issue and label this section “personal explanation”; it can be in the past or in the present. You may think of something that is worrying you now. You can also analyze the situation of a person close to you if their experience affected you and you know it well enough personally to write in depth about it. Choose a situation that is easily explained through a variety of sociological concepts! Describe what led up to the situation, its resolution if applicable, the whys, who else is involved and what the.

This assignment is a 4-5 page journal (really an essay) in which you analyze an organization that you participated in. It can be an organization that you have mentioned earlier, but not the one that you and your Group are researching now. It's an organization about which you have personal knowledge and experience.   It's a "reflective" assignment, and does not necessarily require new research. You will rely on your recollection, and you will interpret (re-visit, review and re-interpret) the organization and its four processes -- and its response to an issue, using the frames model to organize your findings and support your conclusions.   What was a problem or issue that this organization experienced? How do concepts and frames provided by Bolman and Deal enable a deeper understanding of what happened? Did any reframing occur? If not, why not? Looking back, speculate on what might have enabled better outcomes for the organization. Could a better understanding or application of the four frames or perspectives made a difference? This is a high value (15%) assignment.  The Essay Rubric will be used to evaluate this assignment. The Four Frames Only in the last half century have social scientists devoted much time or attention to developing ideas about how organizations work, how they should work, or why they often fail. In the social sciences, several major schools of thought have evolved. Each has its own concepts and assumptions, espousing a particular view of how to bring social collectives under control. Each tradition claims a scientific foundation. But a theory can easily become a theology that preaches a single, parochial scripture. Modern managers must sort through a cacophony of voices and visions for help. Sifting through competing voices is one of our goals in writing this book. We are not searching for the one best way. Rather, we consolidate major schools of organizational thought into a comprehensive framework encompassing four perspectives. Our goal is usable knowledge. We have sought ideas powerful enough to capture the subtlety and complexity of life in organizations yet simple enough to be useful. Our distillation has drawn much from the social sciences — particularly sociology, psychology, political science, and anthropology. Thousands of managers and scores of organizations have helped us sift through social science research to identify ideas that work in practice. We have sorted insights from both research and practice into four major frames — structural, human resource, political, and symbolic (Bolman and Deal, 1984). Each is used by academics and practitioners alike and found on the shelves of libraries and bookstores. Four Frames: As Near as Your Local Bookstore Imagine a harried executive browsing in the management section of her local bookseller on a brisk winter day in 2008. She worries about her company ’ s flagging performance and fears that her job might soon disappear. She spots the black - on - white spine ...

Point from the chapter: The chapter is not just the explanation of different human traits, but it is the interesting exploration of facts and attributes related to human personality. The whole chapter is interesting and I enjoyed a lot reading every word in its lines. I found three points most interesting as a requirement of this response. The first point is on page 221 and it states “Boys view other boys who play with girls as feminine, and boys do not tolerate feminine behavior in another boy. It is important for boys’ sense of masculinity to demonstrate that they are not feminine and to reject all associations with femininity. Girls, however, do not feel the same need to reject masculinity”. External connection: I am including this point because this point elaborates a very interesting aspect which we live through our whole life but don’t notice it and don’t think why we are doing this, or why even the people in our life think about the males who live among females. I remember that when our senior passed out student in school came in our class and expressed his experience about leaving engineering and joining the commerce field. I and my friends noticed his body language and gestures as similar to that of females. After he finished his talk, I raised my hand asked him about his talking style. He smiled and said that he is changed and even feels it about himself and the reason is living among females mostly. His friends are females. So, that’s why his females-like talking style is noticeable. Point from the chapter: Another interesting point is on 224 which states that “However, girls stand near teachers only in the presence of boys. Girls likely believe that an adult authority figure will temper boys’ dominant behavior.” This point is important to discuss because this lies exactly in the same scenario as the first above-mentioned point. Although the coeducation is not considered appropriate in some part of the world, it is a reality in male dominant societies that females need a strong guardian to feel protected and safe. On the other hand, males advocate their superiority complex in male dominant societies. External connection: The connection to this point is the article “Asking Girls and Boys, What Would Wonder Woman Do?” published in the New York Times. The article elaborates the qualities of a wonder woman. It also elaborates the male dominance in the coeducation atmosphere and the reluctant attitude of females to challenge male dominance in the female majorities. The article also elaborates the need of females to speak up against male dominance. Point from the chapter: The point is from the page number 236 and it states that “Researchers have distinguished between more genuine smiles (Duchenne smiles) and false smiles (non-Duchenne smiles), which can be observed by the movement of specific facial muscles”. This point is worth mentioning because we are surrounded by the fake people and fake smiles. There are people who just pose .

Weeks 3–4: Sources of Power, Influence, and Empowerment as Well as Leadership Traits and Skills Introduction What are the bases of social power? How do effective leaders use their power? It has been said that the social use of power by leaders is a topic that has much in common with the topic of romantic love. You may recognize it as a potent force in your social life, or you may talk about it in everyday language, or ponder its meaning. In this paradigm, researchers see power use as being affected by organizational contexts and point to hierarchical status systems as causal factors. Additionally, leaders' personal qualities, such as core values like authority relations and dependency habits, are a part of this paradigm. Once social system factors such as organizational culture and social justice perceptions are included, you will begin to see why empowerment is often posed as a simplistic solution to problems when it is in fact the result of a fascinating complex of many different processes in an occupational setting. As you interact with your colleagues this week, think about whether there can be harmful aftereffects to the overuse or abuse of power. What describes the true sharing of power in a high-stakes organizational environment? Whether one looks in western cultures or in eastern cultural resources, the earliest writings can be said to be accounts of the heroic journeys or experiences of our moral leaders. Even ancient Greek philosophy, not normally associated with one religion or another, espouses the desirability of the "philosopher king," who by superior intellect leads in a moral fashion. In contrast, there has never been a universal agreement on what the ideal leadership trait might be. How can you best understand the differences in leaders' characteristics? If there is no one best way to lead, then is there one best characteristic for each particular situation for leadership? In the 20th century, a number of contingency theories attempted to match individual traits with specific leadership situations or contexts. This argument could be put simply by saying that no leadership trait was all-important but that didn't mean that traits or individual qualities were unimportant either; they just had to be understood in their context. More recently, our ideas of traits have expanded beyond motivations or personality factors. Individual difference factors such as gender have been hotly debated. What about diversity factors like gender and/or ethnicity: do they interact with traits or skills to help us understand leadership? Learning Outcomes By the end of this week, you will be able to: Distinguish among social bases of power, social influence attempts, and authority models as paradigms Analyze the organization bases for expertise and delegation Measure outcomes of power assertion, and how it relates to social change Evaluate differences in leadership styles Assess emotional intelligence as a skill set for power and influence Apply .

Journal entry 1 : The systems and structures that shape cultural norms and our perceptions—and, therefore, that create/shape single stories—do not operate in a vacuum. As our course texts and discussions have shown, structures interact with each other. They are intertwined, so they shape our bodies and experiences simultaneously. Kimberlé Crenshaw explains this deftly and eloquently in her TED Talk through the concept of intersectionality. Therefore, you must use at least one specific idea from Kimberlé Crenshaw’s TED Talk, bell hooks’s essay, or Audre Lorde’s essay in Women in Culture . The second text you cite must be from the week you’re submitting your journal entry. Part of analyzing and complicating single stories involves understanding how our world is more complex than the “truth” a single story creates. For example, in our class we discuss how different identity categories, “isms,” and/or systems of power and privilege are operating at the same time to affect how people perceive us and we perceive ourselves, and how social identity categories are heterogeneous: there is “difference within” this category (e.g., not all “women” are the same or experience gender in the same way). journal entry 2 Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie tells us, “Power is the ability not just to tell the story of another person, but to make it the definitive story of that person” (10:04). Moreover, these “definitive stories” often misrepresent and oversimplify someone’s identity and/or life experiences. This occurs partly because a single story is larger than any individual: single stories are shaped by structures of thought — such as a stereotype, a belief system, or an “ism”(sexism, racism homophobia) and material structures — such as economic, educational, government, and legal systems. Entry Instructions In at least 200 words , for this entry, you’ll explore a structure of thought and/or a material structure in relation to single stories. How do broader social structures ( material structures or structures of thought ) oversimplify our understandings of identity. This relates to the concept of “single stories” because single-story ideas create and are an effect of the simplified ideas about identity? You can focus on a specific identity category (such as race, gender, sexuality, religion) or focus on the way that “identity” is structured in US society more broadly. Some questions that you could address are What “isms” and structures shape a specific single story about an identity category? How do the “isms” and structures create social/cultural norms and perceptions that shape single stories? How do “isms” and structures make single stories difficult to change? Remember to integrate specific parts of at least two required texts to help explain your ideas about the relationship between these structures and single stories, and one of those texts must be from week 8 (Lorde’s essay or Alsultany’s essay). ...

Writing is a form of personal freedom. It frees us from the mass identity we see in the making all around us. In the end, writers will write not to be outlaw heroes of some underculture but mainly to save themselves, to survive as individuals. —Don DeLillo Learning Objectives After reading this chapter, you should be able to: 1. Explain the purpose of a personal writing essay. 2. Recognize the different types of personal essays. 3. Identify the different components of a personal writing assignment, such as point of view, structure, tone, and language usage. 4. Create personal essays that are aware of the audience, have a strong plot, have a clear point, use concrete language, and properly incorporate dialogue. 5. Generate essays with great descrip- tions by being specific, appealing to the senses, selecting the right details, and utilizing comparisons. 6Personal Writing ©Deborah Harrison/Photographer’s Choice/Getty Images con80878_06_c06.indd 109 8/26/13 1:04 PM CHAPTER 6Section 6.1 What Is Personal Writing? As you have learned, there are four primary types of college writing: personal, expository, persuasive/argument, and research assignments. You are probably familiar with personal papers because they are frequently assigned in elementary and high school. For instance, you may have written a paper describing what you did on your summer vacation, or you may have shared your impressions of a book you read or a movie you saw. In college, you will occasionally be asked to write a personal reflection or essay on a defined topic. Although personal papers may not be the most common type of writing assignment you will encounter in your college classes, you will most likely have some personal or narra- tive writing assignments in your courses, and many of your academic papers will be combination papers in which you must take a personal position on an issue. Perhaps you have composed an essay about a significant person or event in your life or a paper reflecting on your personal goals or what a college education means to you. Papers such as these can be defined as personal papers. Developing a personal position on a subject can help you clarify ideas, practice logical skills, and exercise your reasoning abilities. 6.1 What Is Personal Writing? Personal writing may share a personal experience or perspec-tive, and it can be an effective method for offering a viewpoint on a text or an event. Writing from the personal perspective may also allow a writer to write more freely than he or she otherwise would because it is less burdened by formal conventions than other types of writing. Personal writing includes opinion papers, reflective papers, response papers, creative writing assignments, and combination papers. Ingram Publishing/Thinkstock Personal writing allows you the freedom to express your own ideas, thoughts, and beliefs in a creative manner, often without having to adhere to the .

Third Essay: Learning to Write about Difference READING : Rereading America , from chapter five: Parrillo, “Causes of Prejudice” Fredrickson, “Models of American Ethnic relations: A Historical Perspective” Harris and Carbado, “Loot or Find: Fact or Frame?” Kaplan, “Barack Obama: “Miles Traveled, Miles to Go” CONTEXT : Making arguments in our lives usually means persuading an audience; often it means, if it is a real argument, addressing a group that is not completely open to hearing and understanding our point of view. This assignment will address two issues: · Building an argument using convincing textual evidence · Writing in order to persuade an unsympathetic argument THE ASSIGNMENT : Chapter 5 in Rereading America addresses the history and present realities of the tensions that have surrounded, and still surround, racial and ethnic differences in the United States. We can broaden the range of this topic to include areas of class, sexual orientation, religion, gender, and political affiliation, at the least. Each of these categories, including race, are populated by groups we could call “others”—groups that both are seen by the majority culture as being somehow “outside” and are viewed by the majority culture with a degree of suspicion. In a four-and-a-half to five page, double-spaced, 12-point typeface essay, argue for how some of the ideas in TWO of the essays in chapter 5 of Rereading America apply to ONE of these groups of “others” of your choosing. Define the group carefully. Write to an audience who would doubt the validity of your topic, the book’s texts, and your argument. If you choose to write about an “other” that is defined by race or ethnicity, be specific in naming this group (e.g., Korean, or mixed-race, or Persian). For example, I might take the arguments in Harris and Carbado’s essay and apply them to similar thought patterns I see in Orange County about people whom the majority culture in the OC might consider “others”—those out of the cultural mainstream. Perhaps I would select French people as my group of others. I could talk about how Orange Countians see French speaking people suspiciously—people who spend too much time thinking about food. This would be a fairly silly paper, but I could nonetheless choose this topic. IMPORTANT ADVICE : Read all four essays and the discussion board entries on the essays. Try choosing the focus of your essay by writing about ideas from the essays that strongly affect you; don’t start out with a particular group in mind. Once you have identified interesting ideas, then think about a group of “others.” AUDIENCE : Each of the assigned essays from Rereading America for this assignment are written for audiences that likely will not agree with the respective writer’s ideas. Note the following areas in both the essays you read, and in constructing your own essays: · Tone—how does the writer decide to present these issues to a potentially unsympathetic a.

IDS 400 Milestone Four Guidelines and Rubric Analyzing an Issue or Event in Diversity Through the Lenses of the Natural and Applied Sciences and the Social Sciences Overview: For the first part of your final project, the critical analysis portfolio, you will select an issue or event in diversity and critically analyze it through the four general education lenses: history, humanities, natural and applied sciences, and social sciences. By viewing the issue or event through these lenses, you will gain insight into how the intersectional nature of diversity affects society as well as both your own individual framework of perception and the choices, attitudes, and behaviors of others in the world around you. For this fourth milestone, due in Module Six, you will analyze your issue/event in diversity through the lenses of the natural and applied sciences and the social sciences. Like Milestone Two, this task provides you with an opportunity to dive deeper into your analysis of the issue/event through these two lenses. This will provide you with a chance to practice analyzing your issue/event through these lenses and receive feedback on this practice attempt. Prompt: First, review your work in Modules Five and Six, as well as the Four Lenses document from Module One. Next, analyze your issue/event through the lens of the natural and applied sciences by exploring the following questions:  How does this issue/event provide a social commentary through the natural and applied sciences?  In what ways can science help resolve or enhance your issue/event? Next, analyze your issue/event through the lens of the social sciences, and address the following:  How does this issue/event interact with the social sciences lens and impact social issues?  In what ways does the social science lens help articulate a deeper understanding of the social issue(s) that inform your issue/event? Note: You are completing two separate analyses: one from the natural and applied sciences and one from the social sciences. You must submit two papers in a single Word document. Be sure to use evidence from research to support your analysis. Refer to course resources, the LibGuide for this course, and any other pertinent resources to support your responses. Relevant current news sources may be used with instructor approval. Incorporate instructor feedback into Final Project Part One. Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed: I. Lens Analysis: In this section of your assignment, you will analyze your issue/event through two of the four general education lenses. A. Analyze your issue/event through the lens of the natural and applied sciences for determining its impact on various institutions. Utilize evidence from research to support your analysis. https://learn.snhu.edu/content/enforced/196286-MASTER-IDS-400-CEIDS-OL-TRAD.19EW5/Course%20Documents/IDS%20400%20Four%20General%20Education%20Lenses.pdf?_&d2lSe.
