A Sociological Autobiography.
Your “sociological autobiography” is an exercise in using what C. Wright Mills calls the “sociological imagination”. One of the claims that sociology makes is that our personal biographies are a function of social history. Yet what does this actually mean? How can you see the impact of larger social and historical events on your own life? One way is to compare the characteristics of your generation with those of your parents and grandparents. What sets your generation apart from other generations? [1] This will help answer the question of the impact of social forces on your life. But how have your personal experiences shaped the person you have become?
A Sociological Autobiography.
Would you be a different person had you been born, for example, in China rather than in the United States or in eastern Kentucky rather than in New York City (social location)? How has being born a male or a female (gender), to middle income (or low or high income) parents (class), or as a Caucasian (or African-American, Hispanic or Latino, etc.) shaped who you are? How and What makes you unique based on your personality and individual life experiences (biography)? What difference does this make in how you view yourself and your opportunities in life, and how you relate to people of different ages, races, classes, and gender?
A Sociological Autobiography.
How would it be if you had been born in a different location, different gender, different social class, or different race? Also denote social institutions and how they have affected your life, for example education and its role in your life. How is your reality socially constructed by others? Always utilize sociological terms and perspective in this paper, it is about social forces and society. Begin your paper by explaining just what is meant by the “sociological imagination,” and then proceed to apply this concept to how both social forces and personal experiences, as well as your race, class, and gender have influenced who you are today. https://youtu.be/3no7NPoHchE
A Sociological Autobiography.

Your Sociological Autobiography is to be no less than three (3) pages and should follow the following format: 1” margins on all sides 12 point Calibri or Times New Roman font Doubled-Spaced Number Each Page

Topic 1. What does “Sports Appreciation” mean to you? After several weeks of classes during which we have covered a relatively few number of the possible topics in sport, what have you taken from that time we have spent together about how sport is so ingrained in our society. Topic 2. How does sport affect you? Family, friends, coworkers, are all in some way affected by sport. An entire section of most newspapers is devoted to it. Many of us pass straight by the front news section and go directly to the sports page pouring over every article, picture, and stat…often never reading a word from that front section.
Sports Appreciation
Topic 3. What is it about sport that you appreciate more now then you did prior to the beginning of class? You may have learned about a sport you knew nothing of before. You may have learned about what some athletes/coaches think about as they are training for competition. You may have learned about how sport changed our spirits during difficult political times. You may have learned about the enjoyment, inspiration, or some other feeling sport can bring to humans. What do you appreciate now about sport that you did not prior to taking this class? Topic 4. The last video watched ‘Sports In America – Our Defining Stories” had in it many examples of how sport has touched people. https://youtu.be/a3wX8nmvlZ0
