Describe and analyze the process of socialization.

Instructions:

Describe and analyze the process of socialization. Begin with responding to the question “Who Am I?” In your description, make sure to incorporate the concepts we have addressed in the course, such as roles, statuses, group membership, etc.  Next, analyze at least 4 agents of socialization that have affected your development as an individual, focusing on childhood socialization into adulthood. Consider, for example, the ways in which the family, religion, media, peers, and education have influenced your development, opportunities, and life choices.  Incorporate at least 4 sociological concepts or theories covered in this course (hint: sociological concepts should be clearly identified and then applied. You are encouraged to use and cite sources here. Any paraphrasing or direct quotes used from another source should include APA formatted in-text citations. Examples of related concepts and theories include the self, moral development, nature and nurture, and resocialization).

What perspectives do you think a sociologist can bring to our understanding of everyday human behavior? 

Observation Go to a public place and observe the people there for 25 minutes. What are the details of the location? Describe the general context (time of day, lighting, sounds, vibe/energy, etc.). Describe the people around you and their sociodemographic characteristics (age, race/ethnicity, gender/sex, socioeconomic status, etc.). Please contact your instructor if you have questions or concerns about visiting a public setting or need to discuss other accommodations. Norms Identify two or more social norms that people engaged in at the public place. A norm is a social rule. There are many norms that help to frame how we are supposed to behave in our daily lives, one example is gender norms (what are social rules we follow to ‘be masculine’ and to ‘be feminine’); another example is standing in line (consider what would happen if you cut everyone in line at 8am in a Starbucks?). Also consider any norm-breaking behavior that you observe. Concepts How do these norms you observed in the scene fit with sociological concepts and theories we’ve learned so far in class? Some examples of sociological concepts we’ve learned about so far include gender roles and emotional labor. (What is a “sociological concept?” They are all the concepts we’ve been learning each week in our course materials such as “socialization,” “norms” and “folkways.”) Reflection Reflect on your experience. How was this observing others through a sociological lens different from when you’ve “people watched” in the past? What perspectives do you think a sociologist can bring to our understanding of everyday human behavior? 

How does social stratification influence the daily interactions of individuals?

Compare and contrast the functionalist view of social stratification and the conflict theory’s view of social stratification.

How do systems of class, based on factors such as prestige, power, income, and wealth, influence your own daily routines, as well as your beliefs and attitudes?  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5DBEYiBkgp8 

Choose one painting by one of the artists listed above, and identify characteristics and techniques of the Renaissance style. 

In this module, we looked at a variety of styles in the Renaissance in Italy.  Artists like Botticelli, Bellini, Michelangelo, and Bronzino all incorporated Renaissance characteristics into their works, and yet their works look different from each other.  

To address form and content in the artistic developments and trends that took place in the Renaissance, look closely at examples from each of these artists. 

• Choose one painting by one of the artists listed above, and identify characteristics and techniques of the Renaissance style. 
• Then, address how the work departed from typical Renaissance formulas to become signature to that artist’s particular style.
• Finally, why did you select this artist?  What draws you to their work?
