Project Outline

 

By successfully completing this assessment, you will demonstrate your proficiency in the following course competencies and assessment criteria:

 

• Competency 1: Examine how theory and sociological concepts apply to everyday life. 
  • Identify sociological concepts that affect one’s own field of study.
• Competency 2: Evaluate the basic tools of sociological inquiry. 
  • Identify resources to support project analysis from a sociological perspective.
• Competency 4: Analyze the influence of culture and socialization on both the individual and society.

• Competency 6: Demonstrate written and verbal communication skills for effectively presenting sociological concepts, ideas, and analyses. 
  • Write in a professional style using APA 6th edition referencing and format with correct grammar, usage, and mechanics.

 

In this assignment, you will provide an outline for your course project. The outline should identify concepts you will be using to analyze, provide a brief summary of why each concept may be relevant, and identify some resources that you intend to use.

 

The purpose of the outline is to make sure that you are actively thinking about and working on your final project. It may be helpful, as we go through each unit, to determine which concepts in that unit you feel are relevant to your Sociology of Me project and begin your analysis at that time. Complete the following:

 

Step 1: Section Outline

 

Outline what you plan to discuss in each section (including identifying concepts you will use). The sections are outlined below and list potential concepts that could be used.

 

• Culture and Socialization: Examine the impact culture and socialization has had on your life.      
  • Socialization, agents of socialization, culture, culture, values, language, norms, subculture, counterculture, ethnocentrism, and cultural relativism.
• Social Structure and Groups: Discuss the impact social structure and groups have had on your life.      
  • Social structure, hierarchy, power, bureaucracy, role, status, primary groups, secondary groups, and group think.
• Education: Discuss how a sociologist would explain your experience with education.      
  • Hidden curriculum, tracking, social stratification, and stereotypes.
• Professional field: Discuss the main sociological issues that affect your field of study.      
  • All concepts from other sections are relevant.
• Technology and Media: Analyze the role technology and media in your everyday life.      
  • Media, digital divide, framing, and social change.

 

Step 2: Identify Preliminary Supporting Resources

 

Your sociological analysis of yourself should be supported by credible, scholarly sources, such as those from academic journals. You should identify at least one scholarly source for each section above. Provide a brief summary of each source identified. Use appropriate citations and include a list of your resources in APA format.

 

When complete, submit your outline in the assignment area.

Explain the role the federal government has in regulating security. What additional areas would you like to see the government involved in? What areas should the government not regulate regarding private security? Apply the philosophies of Button and White to your analysis and justify?

There are known differences in cerebral laterality between males and females. Although our brains are unique, some believe it is politically incorrect to say there are gender differences while others assert that male and female brains are different.  For some educators and policy makers, it’s easy choice; we should have same-sex schools.  For others, brain-based research raises questions about instructional design, teacher qualifications, class size, and instructional strategies. This discussion has three parts, so be sure to note the required reflection near the end of the week. Two of the recommend resources may help you to contribute to this discussion: Salomone (2007) and Gurian, Henley, & Trueman (2001). Both of these resources are available in ebrary through the Ashford Library.
 

 

Initial post: Describe the gender-based differences in the brain’s executive processes during problem solving and critical thinking.  Then, based on your debate group assigned below, use the course materials and at least one other scholarly source from the Ashford Library (Links to an external site.) to justify whether these differences dictate a need to change our educational policies and teaching strategies.
 

 

Debate Grouping (by the first letter of the last name):

 

• M- Z: Against a change in our educational policies and teaching strategies. 

Brain Function

 

In a three-page paper, demonstrate your understanding of the role that sensory experiences have in the learning process.

 

• Discuss how information is carried from the sensory signals and transmitted to other areas of the brain for further processing. Support your discussion with at least 2 examples, terms, and concepts from professional experience and/or academic sources.

   

• Analyze the brain’s attentional filter and executive process. Include details regarding each step involved in processing and attention, as well as relevant environmental impacts supported by references to professional experience and/or appropriate research and theory from academic sources.

   

• Explain the areas of the brain responsible for attention (attentional filter) and executive functioning and address the relationship between executive functioning, attention, and the learning process. Include details regarding relevant brain structures and functioning that relate to learning and support those details by references to professional experience and/or appropriate research and theory.

   

• Explain the various ways to stimulate the Reticular Activating System (RAS) and strengthen the executive functioning networks. Include details regarding ways to stimulate the RAS and strengthen executive functioning networks and support those details by references to professional experience and/or appropriate research and theory.

 

You must use at least one scholarly article in addition to the text. The title and references pages must be included and do not count toward the three page requirement. Your paper must be in APA format, including Times New Roman, 12 point font with double line spacing and one inch margins on all sides. The paper must also demonstrate clear writing with proper grammar, sentence, structure, paragraph development, and essay organization (introduction with thesis statement and conclusion that summarizes main points).
