授業の概要と目的（何を学ぶか）Outline and objectives
This course provides an overview of sociology as the scientific study of society, and in particular, the distinctiveness of the sociological perspective. This course begins by introducing the concept of “sociological imagination,” one of the core sociological tools to analyze society. Next, the course touches on sociological theory and social research methods to understand the distinctiveness of the sociological perspective in more detail. Then, topics, such as socialization and the life course, social interaction, networks, groups, and organizations, families and intimate relationships, education, social stratification and inequality, race and ethnicity, gender, and sexuality, are covered as examples of how the sociological imagination can be applied to different areas of society. Through this course, students will acquire the basic sociological tools to analyze society by learning the key theories and methods used in sociology and applying them to a variety of areas of society in written assignments and in-class discussions. More details of social research methods will be covered in the course “Introduction to Social Research Methods."
到達目標Goal
By the end of this course, students will be able to: (1) describe the key theories and methods used in sociology, (2) explain major substantive issues discussed in sociology (remembering/understanding), (3) apply the sociological imagination to analyze social issues (applying), and (4) compare and contrast various sociological tools to examine the association between individuals’ daily lives and social institutions (analyzing).

This course is taught primarily through interactive lectures. A variety of active learning techniques, such as in-class writing assignments (one-minute papers), neighbor discussions (think-pair-share), and comment sheets, are used to accommodate the diversity in student learning styles. In-class quizzes are held occasionally so that students understand their own level of understanding of the course materials at the moment. Verbal and written feedback on assignments is given during class discussions and through using other tools as appropriate. Also, feedback for the previous class is given at the beginning of each class. Students are welcome to visit the instructor during office hours for more personalized feedback.
