Hi Class, Here are the five potential prompts for the final exam. Three of them will be selected for the final exam (December 13th from 7 PM to 10 PM). Like the midterm, I am asking you to please submit the exam via bcourses. The page limit is seven pages. In terms of strategies for studying, I would suggest trying to outline potential answers for each of the prompts. That way, you will have a plan for each of the questions. Please try to answer all of the questions within the selected prompts. This is very important for making sure that you can get full points for your knowledge and insight. Once again, I just wanted to say that it has been a true honor to be your professor. Thank you for sharing all of your wisdom and experience. You all have very important changes to make in this world, so I look forward to seeing how you apply your leadership and brilliance. Here are the potential prompts: Imagine that you are starting a nonprofit for a local school district that focuses on the topics covered in the sociology of education. What would be the mission of your nonprofit? Which students would it impact? Using at least three course readings, please show that you are aware of how this nonprofit would affect the social lives of students as they develop. Which resources would you need for the nonprofit to succeed? What would your plan be for the next year for the nonprofit? How would the strategy develop over time, considering the changes that might occur in the terms of the school and its students? Please explore the ways in which schooling affects social mobility. Please highlight three course readings that deepen our understanding of social mobility. How do these readings enhance your understanding of what social mobility means within the US context? How can this understanding help us as we design strategies for the future of education? Many of the course readings emphasized the importance of parenting for improving educational outcomes. Please highlight three course readings that connect with these
ideas. With this knowledge, what do you feel are the advantages and disadvantages to the current approach to parental outreach efforts? What is a potential strategy for how schools can outreach and include families within the learning process? How do you see digital media affecting education as a social process? Based upon the readings, please show how digital media could affect the development, formation, and representation of a student’s identity. What are the potential ramifications associated with such social phenomena? What tools should schools have to ensure that students can develop positive self-images? Reviewing the educational policy readings, please highlight one article that most inspired you. Please imagine that you were given the ability to draft a new law that would directly affect this issue. What would your proposed law say? Which challenges would you face in this process? Whose support would you need? What would the strategy look like for making social change in this particular area of education?
