SOCI370
INTRODUCTION
Wiki sites provide an opportunity for students to practice writing and connecting social theory to the broader field of sociology. We will do this in Soci 370 by having teams of students work to develop a set of resources about each theorist -- for interest, a team might have "Marx" and "Communist Manifesto" as their "challenge." The group decides who will discuss what concepts or parts of the Communist Manifesto to produce a "page" that represents cumulated, and shared knowledge of "Marx and Communist Manifesto." Each theorist and assigned reading will have its own "Wiki Page" with a link below, under "Table of Content." All students are invited to review the wiki page, offering suggestions, ideas, and otherwise engaging with the content. The students in the assigned groups can use these comments and other discussions to IMPROVE their wiki entries during the week, thus producing a peer-informed entry on a theorist and reading that will help all students (and the broader public) understand. You are responsible for creating ORIGINAL content. All rules regarding citation and attribution remain.
ASSIGNMENT INFORMATION
Student groups are responsible for organizing what content will be produced and by whom. Students should work to tie theoretical concepts to contemporary social issues. The expectation is that students will produce a well-crafted paragraph of 5-6 sentences. Other students (including other group members) can contribute to each entry by clicking on the discussion tab. Each student in a group should bring a printed copy of their contribution to class on Thursday. This will reflect the revisions that have been made as each group member reflects on what they have written, subsequently learned in lecture, and what fellow students have suggested in the comments.
