The Week 3 Forum meets the following course objectives:
Understand the feminist perspective, masculinities, and contributions to social research.
In this discussion forum, students are required to provide a response to one of the following questions. Remember to include two references to the readings and to respond to two other posts.
1.
What is the double standard discussed in Andersen (Chapter 4)? How has the double standard changed over time? Reference the readings and respond to two other posts.
Or
2.
Compare and contrast the stories in Connell about Adam Singer and Tip Southern (Chapter 6). What do these stories tell us about masculinities in the U.S.?
Instructions:
Sociology lives when we engage it – we read about it, we discuss it, we debate it, we frame our research questions with it, we put it to the test of empiricism, and every once in a while we build it ourselves. Therefore, the success of this course depends on all of us thoroughly engaging it. One of the most important parts of the course will be the discussions and debates we participate in, in our Forum. These discussions need to be informed by thorough reading of the assigned texts.
Each week, learners will post one initial post per week. This post must demonstrate comprehension of the course materials, the ability to apply that knowledge in the real world, active presence. Learners will engage with the instructor and peers through rich responses to their posts. To motivate engaged discussion, posts are expected to be on time with regular interaction throughout the week. All posts should demonstrate college level writing skills. To promote vibrant discussion as we would in a face to face classroom, formatted citations and references are not required. Quotes should not be used at all, or used sparingly. If you quote a source quotation marks should be used and an APA formatted citation and reference provided.
