Читать книгу Our Social World - Kathleen Odell Korgen - Страница 14

Perhaps the most innovative feature in this book is called “Engaging Sociology”—and the double entendre is intentional. We want students to think of sociology as engaging, informative, and fun. These features—such as applying a population pyramid to the business world, taking a survey to understand why differences in social and cultural capital can make first-generation students feel alienated on a college campus, and reading a map and learning to analyze the patterns—help students understand how interesting and useful sociology can be.
