Follow-up work: Read and annotate chapter two of the textbook, fill out the definitions and answer the questions at the back. If you don't have it for some reason you can find the textbook here
Review of today:
Welcome back! Today we...
Addressed the driving question of the week, "How do we learn to be part of society, and why does it matter?"
We walked through a slideshow that reviewed chapter 1 of the textbook and introduced us to Plato's allegory of the cave, and how it applies to sociology...click here to review it.
We made in-class presentations examining how institutions in Durango have both manifest and latent functions (see the slideshow for more details on what these terms mean...)
That's all folks! See you tomorrow :)
