Sociology homework help.
As a response to this post, and making direct references to the learning resources for this week, give your own assessment of the value of studying gender, particularly from a sociological standpoint. How can the Sociology of Gender affect our world outside this classroom? Some ideas (you do not have to comment on all of these; they are just prompts for thinking):
· What are some under- (or un-) investigated issues that the Sociology of Gender could address?
· Why is gender an important topic for sociological research?
· How does research in the Sociology of Gender contribute to social movements working toward gender equality?
· What is the relationship between the Sociology of Gender and feminism?
· What is something you learned this session that you’ll take with you outside of this class?
· What have you learned that you wish other people knew?
· Is there any learning resource from this class that you will share with others? Why?
· Would you recommend that other people in your major (or in other majors) take a course on gender, or this course in particular?
· What do you believe is the value of the Sociology of Gender as a field, and as part of a university curriculum?
