Social Construction of Gender
Socialization and the Social constructs of gender
Gender and families
Social Interaction in Everyday Life
A fundamental feature of social life is social interaction, or the ways in which people act with other people and react to how other people are acting. To recall John Donne, no one is an island. This means that all individuals, except those who choose to live truly alone, interact with other individuals virtually every day and often many times in any one day. For social order, a prerequisite for any society, to be possible, effective social interaction must be possible. Partly for this reason, sociologists interested in microsociology have long tried to understand social life by analyzing how and why people interact the way they do.
Social Constructions of Reality
Social construction focuses on how meaning is created, and that knowledge is a social product, collaboratively created by society. As a member of society, the individual is placed within various power hierarchies, and create meaning within their environment.
The sociological concept of reality as a social construct
Define roles and describe their place in peoples daily interactions
Explain how individuals present themselves and perceive themselves in a social context
Describe what is meant by dramaturgy and by impression management.
Provide examples of role conflict or role strain.
Explore gender differences in nonverbal communication.
Describe the difference between a status and a role in everyday life.
The difference between an ascribed status, an achieved status, and a master status in everyday life.
I ask two things of each of you. First, consider if YOU are truly a critical thinker. Do you meet the standards of critical thinking listed under the result section on the “Why critical thinking” page of your booklet? Do YOU adhere to any of the “It’s true statements…” listed on the “Problem of egocentric thinking” page? Are YOU truly a critical thinker or do you simply want to believe that you are? Is it a good thing to be a critical thinker? If yes, why? If no, why not?
Second, please thoughtfully and thoroughly read the “Universal Intellectual Standards” pages in your booklet and provide us your thoughts and feelings. Furthermore, discuss which universal intellectual standard listed you believe is the most difficult to apply to critical thinking? Why?
In our first discussion on critical thinking, we established that there are some serious flaws in our patterns of thinking. We even supported the idea that much of our non-assessed thinking is biased, partial and prejudiced. Consider some of the ramifications of this reality. Remember that our thinking affects every aspect of our life including our personal relationships, level of success at work, and even how we view the world, others and even ourselves.
Note on the bottom of the page titled, Why Critical Thinking? in the Miniature Guide to Critical Thinking that a higher level of thinking (i.e., critical thinking) is self-directed, self-disciplined, self-monitored, and self-corrective. In other words, each of us individually becomes ultimately responsible for how we think! We cannot and should not allow others to do our thinking for us. In addition, we should often critique our thinking and try to improve it (some of the ways we can do this are detailed in the bullets under the Result section).
I believe critical thinking is not necessarily an easy thing to do. Indeed, it can be very trying and difficult. For example, how comfortable are we admitting that we are potentially wrong in our ideas and beliefs about self, others, or the worlds issues? Most of us not only want to believe we are right, we actually believe we are right without question!
Lets skip ahead a few pages in the Miniature guide to critical thinking by going to the page titled, The problem of egocentric thinking. As before, please thoughtfully and thoroughly read this page and provide us your thoughts and feelings. Before responding in a forum posting, consider if any of the Its true because statements have or currently apply to YOU and your thinking? If so, why? Also, what if anything will you do about it from this point forward?

I already came up with the case study. You can use the power point and paper and then do additional research that is required.
Directions. PART 3 CASE ANALYSIS PAPER
After the case presentation and discussion, the student will prepare a case analysis. The analysis will:
1.Illuminate the central ethical challenge,
2.Identify and evaluate possible course of action, and
3.Explain the reasoning behind a course of action using support justified through research.
A trenchant analysis will:
Articulate an understanding of the ethical dimensions of technology in education. It will draw upon the ethical frameworks for analysis examined in the course. Demonstrate an understanding of the legal, social, and ethical issues related to technology use. (Core Curriculum Learning Outcome [CCLO] #3.
Highlight arguments from evidence gathered from a variety of sources, including materials that support opposing points of view. The aim is to demonstrate critical thinking skills in relation to the analysis of a case (CCLO #1)
Evaluate the logic of persuasive rhetoric in arguments for all major positions on a topic and formulate cogent counter arguments to each one (CCLO #2)
Construct and assess possible solutions to problems or dilemmas within an informed ethical and societal context. (CCLO #4)
Communicate arguments and conclusions effectively and clearly. (CCLO#5)
About Written Expression: The Case Project will include the development of a case study related to an ethical issue in education and technology. The case will be presented in-class, as Ethical Rounds, and will be considered along with a written response to the presentation of the case as the final examination in the course. All written assignments must be clear, concise, grammatically correct and free from errors in spelling and punctuation. Work should demonstrate creativity as well as depth of understanding of the topic.
Because of your responsibility as a professional will include articulate communication of issues in the field, clarity and accuracy in writing will be required for full credit on all graded assignments. You are encouraged to work with the writing center. Final submissions must be word-processed, double spaced, and proof read and will be assessed for both content and presentation. For final submissions, professional level writing is expected, following APA (6th Edition) format. (An APA Style Manual is recommended, or can be found at http://www.apa.org
