Sociology: Your Social Life
Description:
Not offered after 22-23!
This course offers students a unique opportunity to compare Christian and humanistic perspectives of the field of sociology (the scientific study of society), and to consider major topics through the lens of a Biblical Worldview. Students will examine how society shapes human actions and beliefs, and how human actions and beliefs in turn shape society. Major topics include marriage and family, religion and education, the economy and politics, sports and entertainment, population and the environment, cities and urban life, collective behavior and social movements, and social change.
Special Notes:
Sociology 200 (SOCE200) and Sociology 210 (SOCE210) can be taken at the same time, or at different times in any order. Neither course is a prerequisite for the other, however, if students are planning to take both sociology courses in different semesters, it is slightly encouraged that SOCE200 be taken first in order to help establish an over-arching view of the field.
If there are books and materials for this course, they can be purchased from our Online Bookstore.
Student Feedback
The group discussions were definitely my favorite part. They did so well at summarizing everything we had learned during that unit.
I think the course provided a great learning opportunity.
The course has many great lessons to be learned, and the assignments do very well to help you remember what it is you learned. I had great fun with this course and I think that everyone should take an opportunity to enjoy it.
