Application Assignment: Final Paper
Overview
No matter which option you chose, this summative final paper will have you considering what you learned in this course. Each topic will make you consider your thoughts on sociology when you started this course and what you have learned. While evaluating how your beliefs have changed since the beginning of the course, you will need to reassess your standing with the sociological perspectives. Note that these two activities go hand in hand: You are unlikely to reassess something without considering how your beliefs may have changed. Although the topics are different, they overlap.
Instructions
1. Choose one topic for your assignment:
(a) Compare your thoughts about sociology now to your thoughts on sociology when you started the course. How have your thoughts or beliefs changed?
(b) What in this course stood out to you the most? What made you stop and reassess your values, beliefs, or perspectives?
2. Prepare a paper that addresses the topic, integrating scholarly sources.
