Assignment 1: the sociological viewpoint toward social problems (Due Week 2) Overview One of the most crucial components to this course concerns addressing social problems in society from a sociological viewpoint as opposed to a strictly policy-oriented, psychological, or criminal justice viewpoint. Although many different viewpoints in social science are valid and have a lot of importance, it is equally important for us to understand how sociology looks at the nature of social problems in society today. This paper will enable us to explore why certain social problems seem to be regarded as more significant than others. Our job will be in defining the sociological viewpoint, and choosing one social problem that we think is of high importance. We will build upon the topic we choose in this paper for our second and third writing assignments. Instructions Construct a 2-4 page paper that fully explores each of the following areas: 1) Citing our textbook material, explain how the sociological approach toward social problems differs from other approaches. Why are certain problems considered significant and others are not? 2) Next, choose one social problem that exists in society that you think is particularly serious, and explain it in sociological terms. This social problem should be measurable in some statistical way. (Is it increasing, and if so, how? Among which groups of people, and for how long, etc.?) 3) What might be one important way in which the social problem is currently being addressed in society? 4) Please define and identify at least four concepts from our text relevant to your chosen social problem. 5) Analyze the way in which these concepts help us better understand the nature of the social problem you are discussing. Don’t forget to include proper APA-style citation and reference. (Assignment One is worth 10% of the total grade.) .

Theories of social work — presentation transcript

Careers in sociology offer a wide range of opportunities for individuals interested in studying and understanding human society and social behavior. Here is a discussion on the various career paths within sociology: Research and Academia: Many sociologists pursue careers in research and academia. They work as professors, researchers, and scholars in universities, colleges, and research institutions. They conduct research, publish academic papers, and contribute to the knowledge and understanding of sociological theories and concepts. Applied Sociology: Applied sociologists utilize their knowledge and skills to address social issues and provide practical solutions. They work in diverse settings such as government agencies, non-profit organizations, consulting firms, and social service agencies. Applied sociologists may focus on areas like community development, social policy, program evaluation, or social advocacy. Social Services and Human Resources: Sociologists can find rewarding careers in social services and human resources sectors. They work in roles such as social workers, counselors, program managers, or human resource specialists. Sociological knowledge helps them understand the dynamics of social problems, develop intervention strategies, and create inclusive and equitable workplaces. Market Research and Data Analysis: Sociologists with expertise in research methods and data analysis can find opportunities in market research firms and organizations. They conduct consumer research, analyze data, and provide insights into consumer behavior, social trends, and market dynamics. Their sociological perspective helps in understanding the social factors that shape consumer choices and preferences. Policy Analysis and Advocacy: Sociologists can contribute to policy development and advocacy work. They analyze social issues, evaluate policy effectiveness, and make recommendations for social change. Sociologists working in this field often collaborate with government agencies, think tanks, advocacy groups, and public policy organizations.

Develop a 6-8 page reflection on your life, applying the sociological imagination and using specific sociological concepts to better understand your life experiences. While we may not notice, society is constantly changing. For sociologists, social change is the continual change of society's culture, structure, and institutions over time. Every society experiences change—it is through this change that the norms and understandings in a society become altered. Fashion is a great example of social change, as what we wear is dependent on the culture at the time. One hundred years ago it was not common for women to wear pants. Now it is perfectly acceptable. While most women are in favor of being able to wear pants, social change is sometimes not always welcome by members of a society. Can you think of any groups or organizations in the United States that are actively opposed to some kind of social change? Most social change is the result of conflict, demographic change, and technology. Conflict and change: Conflict in a society (such as a war or even an election) can create significant change in a society. Demographic change: Changes in the make-up of a population can also affect society. As the makeup of our society in terms of sex, race, age, et cetera, changes, so do many structural and cultural elements of society. How would our society be different if most of the population was under the age of 10? Or over the age of 70? Ideas and Change: Technology is often a driving force behind social change and has brought significant changes to our society. Think back to twenty years ago—how different was society in terms of technology? How did that impact your everyday life? In our current time, our cell phone alarm wakes us up, we check our smart phone, make some coffee in our Keurig, remote start our car, and then use our navigation system to get us to work. This is a significantly different experience than we had twenty years ago. As you reflect on your life and experiences in Assessment 6, consider how much has changed over the course of your lifetime. What are some major social changes? What do you think had changed for the better? For the worse? Demonstration of Proficiency By successfully completing this assessment, you will demonstrate your proficiency in the following course competencies and assessment criteria: Competency 3: Explain the significance of social inequality for the individual and society. Explain one's own educational experience from a sociological perspective. Competency 4: Analyze the influence of culture on both the individual and society.

Analyze the impact of social structure, social change, and groups on one's own life. Explain sociological issues that affect one's own field of study. Analyze the role of technology and med.

SOC 213: Final Project Guidelines and Rubric Overview The final project for this course is the creation of a sociological imagination PowerPoint presentation. The presentation is designed to encourage students to think about social problems—past or present, local or global—using their sociological imagination, which involves looking beyond the traditional expectations or veneer associated with social problems. This sociological skill set is imperative in order for student’s to truly begin to grasp the relationship and distinction between individual biography and social structures. Social problems are aspects of society that communities of people are concerned about and want to change or improve. Because social problems are social creations, students will uncover structural and cultural variables that help explain how a current social problem has emerged and persisted, and students will ultimately develop a “sociological imagination”“—the ability to see behaviors socially and understand how they interact and influence each other. The objective is to submit, in a creative PowerPoint presentation, a compelling case for why a student’s chosen social problem is indeed a social and cultural problem and not simply the result of individual choices. Sociologists do not discount the role of personal responsibility within a certain context, but rather seek to understand the power of an environment in shaping personal choices and patterns. For example, consider the social problem of youth unemployment. It is well-documented that in the last several years of America’s economy, young people have experienced unemployment in greater numbers. A presentation in this course about youth unemployment might be framed initially about how, in an American culture that is so focused on individual responsibility and achievement, an issue such as youth unemployment can be treated as purely an individual problem. False information surrounding youth unemployment at large sounds like this: “Today's youth are self-centered and lazy, and they have a sense of entitlement.” “They are not willing to make the sacrifices that we did by working their way up the corporate ladder.” To more specifically understand this sociological problem, students would need to narrow its parameters by selecting a given time period and/or a specific geographic area for youth unemployment. If a student chose to understand unemployment as a result of the Great Recession, it would be easier to scope the range of factors that contribute to this ongoing issue. To better individualize this issue, a student might choose to share his or her own story or that of a family member or a friend who experienced losing a job. Or, a student could choose to share the narrative from a movie, such as The Pursuit of Happiness or another contemporary example. Following this, it would be important to highlight a particular sociological theory: conflict, functionalism, or symbolic interactionism. Because theories are simp ...
