sociological autobiography,

Discuss events from your life that are related to the sociological topic(s) you have chosen. For example, if you choose education as one of your major topics, you will provide a description of your own personal experiences related to education and the significant educational events that have occurred in your life. o Provide a comparison of your experience within this institution to the experiences that those from other groups or societies. In other words, examine the impact that your social location has had on your experiences within this social institution. o Apply specific sociological terms, concepts, and/or theories related to your lived experiences. Remember, you must use sociological language. Be sure to reference the textbook and provide explanations of the concepts you are discussing. For example, if you are analyzing the topic of education you may examine the significance of labeling theory, and apply concepts like tracking and the hidden curriculum. The use of sociological terms is necessary for making your work different than the typical autobiography. I do NOT want an account of your life story without the use of the sociological imagination.
