Social Science – Sociology

    Project: Final Project

     

    What is your vision for social change? What outcomes would you like to see regarding the social issue on which you have focused during this course? What might you be able to contribute to the realization of those outcomes? This Assignment provides an opportunity for synthesizing the information you have researched and the ideas you have formulated regarding your social issue. It also provides an opportunity for peer review and collective comments in Week 6.

    To prepare for this Project:

     

    • Review the Final Project section of the Course Project Overview and Guidelines located in this week’s Learning Resources.
    • Consider the scope of what you have learned regarding your social issue. What insights have resonated? What inspiration have you drawn from examples in the Learning Resources? What can one person do to make a difference on this issue? What can many people do?
    • With all of this in mind, consider actions you can take that might impact this issue. What is the objective of each action? What might be gained?
