Focus

The final exam/final project paper focuses on identifying solutions to a social problem important to you. Examining social life can be challenging and often defeating, after all “I am only one person,” it seems there is no end in sight for the misery and pain that many people in our society endure. It begs the question, what can I do to address systemic inequality, privilege, oppression, exclusion, and other forms of domination?

Well, we can begin to make inroads if we are willing to learn about our environment and eventually engage in direction action to change social ills (hopefully this class has helped in the endeavor!). This paper (among other experiences and learning tools) can be a stepping stone for someone willing to take that journey. We end the final project/paper on developing new innovative ways to resist and ultimately eliminate asymmetrical power structures.

Project Directive

Demonstrate the ability to apply a basic understanding of sociological perspectives and theories to analyze the social world in order to address pertinent social problems.

Throughout the course of the semester we have covered a variety of societal issues. However, this final project is designed to provide solutions to help solve a social issue of your choice.

Students will choose a serious issue impacting society. You may select an issue outside the scope of the material covered in this course.

You will carefully and succinctly craft solutions designed to alleviate your particular dilemma. Serious well thought-out responses are required.

Paper Outline Guide

Introduction Page (1 page)

  • Introduce the topic, discuss the social problem, and briefly provide a preview of the forthcoming solutions.
  • There is an assumption the reader understands the social problem, therefore, try to stay away from overly describing the problem.
  • Write a clear and concise thesis statement.
  • Make sure to include name(s), date, course, professor, and creative title. No coversheet required.

Subsequent Pages (2-3 pages)

Do not simply describe a series of solutions (2-3 solutions), carefully provide details on how to implement the solutions. For instance, the reinvestment in schools to address educational disparities. You may consider the following questions:

  • How can society (i.e. communities) implement this “solution”?
  • What are the social, cultural, political, and economic mechanisms at work?
  • Who are the actors involved? What groups hold the power to create change?
  • What are some of the best practices to achieving your “solution”?
  • Are there any potential challenges?
  • Has this solution been considered before?
