Topics for Spring 2008 Intro Course

Full list of exact topics will depend on student interests. Initially, I offer particular Wikipedia projects, and offer an open range of other Wikipedia, YouTube, and Flickr projects. Student proposals and will be posted on the User:Htw3/Spring 2008 Project Page. An alphabetical list of contributors log-ins is listed on User:Htw3/Spring 2008 Contributors Page. A group of students are working on a new page that documents sociological themes in Rainbows End. The team is especially interested in documenting examples of ways that society changes in unexpected ways due to technological change. A draft of that project is started on this page: User:Htw3/Sociology of the future in Rainbows End

Methods Topics for Winter 2008

Groups working research projects for Winter 2008.

= Purple Parrots =

  • Contact = MK user:gators3459 Our team added information under each subsection as needed. Contributions were made randomly as needed to complete the entire page. Specifically I added to the historical section, IRB, human research, and the new directions section.
  • Writing = ND user:nosu15 I think I forgot to log in once, maybe twice at the most. I specifically added to the ethical concerns, principles and IRB facets to the page. I also contributed to the new directions section and overlooked the writing quality of the page.
  • Research = AD User:amd5060 I think I only logged in with my user name once or twice, but I promise I worked on the Wiki page much more. I defined ethics, wrote the brief outline, contributed to the Historical Development and Human Subject Research sections and wrote the Ethical Concerns section.

Topic Ethical research in social science (I think this topic will be great)

I made a resource page for your team that you can use to organize materials and draft an outline of your page. I moved the link to the page on research ethics there.

Mike Harper: As Wiki manager, I helped write the introduction for our page along with Michael. Other parts of the page I wrote were the "data sources in criminological research" page and the "measurement challenges in criminology" page. Also, I contributed multiple sources to the annotated bibliography and added my references. I also proofread each of the sections for the page. I believe I was logged in for most of the work, but I can recall a couple of instances where after I had already made the edit I realized I was not logged in.

Writing: EJ User:esj2070 For the Wikipedia project, I wrote the section on descriptive analysis and comparison. For this section I used two chapters from a book that was used in other sections in the project. I wrote the New Directions section using an e-mail we recieved. From the e-mail, I took important concepts and explained their importance using definitions of specific terms. I helped proofread the project aswell. The contributions I made while not logged in were minor, simply grammar and spelling corrections on my sections.

Research: User:Mrw12 For the Wikipedia project I contributed to the Introduction of the topic. I also created the history and development section for the topic. Finally I created the Testing Causation section with the sub-sections of social relationships related to crime and how neighborhood attributes affect crime. I also added all sources and references used to the annotated bibliography and proofread my completed sections as well as my groups. I think I only forgot to log in a couple times, but I don’t think the edits I made were very crucial during those times, mostly just proofreading.

Contact: User: Treeeesa

Theresa Richardson: I wrote the section on past experiments as well as added the small subsection about challenges under ethics involving privacy. I was not always signed in under my user name so it probably wont show everything I edited. However, I was signed in for a good chunk of it so you can see quite a bit of what I did. Most of the large chunks of writing we all did separately, and tried to help out in other sections when necessary.

Writing: User: orangeiguanas

Alexandra Martin: Our group broke up the project into assigned sections. I was only signed in to my user name for one day, but I made many changes to my sections. I wrote the "Historical Development, Overview of Topic" section, and "Types of Experiments" section.

Research: User: Sjuhn

Samantha Juhn: I wrote the section on ethics, the IRB, and current research. I was not always signed in under my user name so it probably wont show everything I edited. Come to think of it, I think I only signed in once. In the beginning, we worked closely as a group to develop the outline of our page, then towards the end, we took on separate roles, and flushed out the individual sections on our own time.

I made a resource page for your team that you can use to organize materials and draft an outline of your page.

Topics: Social Experiments (Experimental Methods in Sociology and Criminology), Ethnography, Historical Social Science Methods



I think an article on experimental methods would be great. Perhaps the proper title is:

Experimental methodology in social sciences (where social sciences is more general than soc and crim, including also political science, social psychology and communication, etc. but not including behavioral sciences like psychology)

My role in this project was to gain research. We all worked together on the wikipedia page as well as the YouTube video. On the wikipedia article we each focused on a different part. My part was the occupatinal status section and so I should be credited for that part of the article but I could not find a way to do so.

My role in the project was the velvet hammer. I didn't really have to put much effort into that because everybody in our group worked well together and were always cooperative. I also wrote the introduction to our page and added a source to beef up our current research section. I participated in every meeting we had, including filming the video, and I always asked if anybody needed anything so that I could help out.

  • I spent most of the time researching the various aspects and contributions to social mobility. My contributions were made to the rules of status, structural and exchange, upward and downward, class cultures, and current research sections. I made a minor edit to different mobility regimes but it didn't show up in the history page. I also included a link to our youtube video.

[youtube video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sMmMXVJspjU]

I Made edits to the page dealing with my specific topic of Social Mobility. Once I figured out how to di it, I added in some things I found in the book concerning the topic on Upward, and Downward mobility and also achieved and ascribed status. Concerning the video I was the velvet hammer but everyone in the group did a good job of doing things so I helped create the idea for the video and planned it out, this includes picking out the clips and music as well as which clips go with which example.

  • I contributed to the introduction portion of the page and added general information about ethnic enclaves. I added a history section in the beginning of the quarter but that was edited to be incorporated into the article. Also I added to the "About" section and fixed all of the reference and linking material into the correct format in all of the sections. I also made contributions to the "Religion" and "Economy" sections of the page. I added the whole section about the "Enclave Economic Theory." I split up the bulk of my edits into two different sections because I did most of my edits in a row and no one changed anything after I made them.

  • Being the group velvet hammer, I replied to all emails sent by Dr. Welser for Team Morgan. I also made sure a printed copy of the outline was brought to class every time it was asked of us. Being somewhat of the team leader, I organized times so we could meet at the library regarding our progress with our project. During this time, we made sure we were all doing our edits and we would help each other if we were having problems. Another thing that was helpful was that I never missed a class so my group could always see me then. I set up our Wikipedia page by first creating a new page, because there was no page before and I made the section titles. I created the introduction to the page, the definition of Ethnic succession theory, White flight, and the revision of historical examples, Los Angeles, St. Louis and Chicago. We decided as a group to split up the different sections of the wiki page. At the top of our section is my contribution. As for the video, I have an Apple so I had a program that made our video. I was eager to start to I decided to take on this job also. I created a plot and developed a plan on how we were going to do our video. Our group agreed on my idea so they helped me find pictures and I created the video.

  • Much of my contribution to the project was in terms of the Wikipedia page. I created the Explanations section to the page, and did a lot of formatting to the rest of the group members' edits. I was the grammar whore of the group too and touched up a lot of wordings. I also researched atricles, particularly current research, once Dr. Welser gave us some good examples. I contributed a lot to the current research part of the article and added minor edits to the White Flight and LA sections, as well as reworking the definition. Also, I wrote and tagged the talk page so that Wiki users would be patient with us and give us time to build our article. In terms of the video, I recommended the use of iMovie and I have a PC so I was more of a picture gatherer and brainstormer. In the event that Morgan was out of town or busy I took an active role in meeting planning and delegating as well.

  • I contributed a lot to the organization of the Wikipedia page. I wrote the original outline with the input of the rest of the group. I also typed it and sent it to everyone in the group. I helped with the ideas and organization of the video. I also wrote the historical examples section of the wikipedia page with information about Los Angeles, Chicago, and St. Louis. I sited all of my sources as well.

Ġ====Theory of religious economy History page here ====

.......... see comments on your article discussion page.

I helped make the outline of what our entire page would be about and then divided it into sections that each person would work on. I also called and organized the meetings at the library and other places for both the wikipedia project and the youtube project. I made three large edits because I typed out everything I wanted to say in Word Document first so I would make sure there would be no spelling errors. I provided the location for the video and helped edit the video. Our group worked very well together and everything done was a collaborative effort. I would like to note that we only had three people in our group because two dropped out and yet I feel we still did a great job.

http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Theory_of_religious_economy&diff=165541655&oldid=165536109 3

I made major contributions to the Wikipedia page, paying close attention to details like spelling, grammar, and proper Wikipedia formatting. I also wrote the introduction for the page. I did extensive, although not exhaustive research at the library, trying to make my contributions to the page correct, thoughtful, thorough, and in my own words. I took initiative to send out emails and decide meeting times and locations. I wrote the script for the Youtube video and acted (poorly) in it, and pushed for making the improvements to the audio on the video. I also feel that we did a great job, despite being shorthanded.

Through out this project, each member of our group contributed. We would all meet and to discus our project and how we each could better the project. My other two group members did take control of the project, but I do think I did my part in contributing. I was the video manager, and edited the video with the help of my group. I added the secularization and how believers are influenced to our page, as well as adding and editing different sections of the page. With only three people in our group, I think we have done an exceptional job on these projects, and we all did our share and worked as a team to complete the tasks at hand.

  • I came up with the group name "The modernites". I was also the contact person. I was responsible for our group getting extra points by being one of the first in sending our groups user pages and contact information in the correct format. For the wiki article I researched many articles on google scholar. I also read through many books on the subject but mainly used 3 for the writings. I contributed to the section on Globalization & modernization, wrote the section on negative aspects of globalization, and also did the section on the implementation of new technology in other nations. My task for the utube was to act in the group skit and also to do an interview with students from other countries about how modern technology has impacted their nation. I interviwed students from Kenya & Sudan. They talked about the positive & negative aspects of new technology in their countries. I filmed & edited this section but unfortunately it could not be used due to technical issues.

  • My role in this project was organizing our page and making it look substantial and impressive. I also was the wiki manager and kept progress steadily and up to date. I added pictures, gave credit to all people i got my information from, wrote about technology and womens role in the modernization theory, as well as the contributions of early modernization theorists. I read through the article daily and made corrections, also helped my group members out with all the coding and how to edit different things. I watched the news and asked a variety of people about there views on modernization and how they thought the world today was improving. This helped in some of my research and data. I also kept in constant contact with my group members and set up/showed up to all the assigned group meetings. In give much credit to Cynthia for our YouTube video for her creative idea and choreographing. My part in the video was to define modernization and give examples of how easy it is to do things in this modernized society.

  • After discussing possible areas of focus with Dr. Welser, I added more headlines to what already existed on the social norms page; I created the passages on the content of normative rules, how they are formed, and how they are enforced/distributed (Focus on the Actions of the Ego/Focus on Ego’s Reactions to Actions of Alter/Negotiations Between Ego and Alter/Enforcement and Distribution of Norms). After doing so, I made citation edits and reorganized sections as suggested by a Wikipedia editor. I also added more resources to the Further Reading and Reference sections, and created an outline for the rest of the group to follow when they made their own edits to the page. I made sure every outline that was due in class was completed and turned in promptly and helped to organize meetings at the library to ensure group members were on the same page. In regards to our group's YouTube video, I monitored content, co-wrote the script, acted as the narrator, and found locations for us to film the video.
  • User:ARmandaLO
  • I used recourses such as chapter 7 of Rodney Stark’s, Sociology, and http://changingminds.org , along with some idea’s from the book my team mates dug up in the library, to write up an outline stating the different types of norms and why these norms are essential in order for people to have social interactions at all. The headings of my major edits are: What makes people conform to norms?, Structural Equivalence, Selection. I'm still in the process of adding more links and edits. As for the youtube video, I made many suggestions on what should be added and content to make our video really stand out. I did my best as a contact to schedule meetings that worked for all of us to get the ball rolling.
  • User:ms144506
  • I undertook the infomation gathering process for the group initially. I hunted down books in the libary and talked to Dr. Welser for any books he could lend us to help. That conversation and the book Dr. Welser gave our group was the crucial element to develop our page pass what was already there. I stupidly left most of the typing up the material to Morgan. i believe the services i supplied to the group can only remotely been seen through examination of the wiki history page. the first major edit i did was logged as a different user becuase i didnt log in. that user was 64.247.113.132. For the Youtube video i was director and the muse of the project. The Idea for the intervention was mine and i conducted the taping of the halloween clips. Morgan Wrote out the script with guidelines set by me to have a brief overview of social norms, a transition into the intervention scene and the last part "don't be that kid" was from my own noggin. The last scene of us in the elevator was a group decision and we put it in to win some brownie points with Dr. Welser. Farting in an elavator... classic.

I entered all of the initial information and created the outline found on the wiki page by correctly organizing the information that my team mates gave. I was the wiki manager. I did the definition and introduction of social action. I added to instrumental action, and emotional reaction. I revised the original outline created by Ross. I corrected many of the grammatical errors found on the page. I organized many of the references and put them in the proper format for Wikipedia. I set deadlines for all of the information to be turned in to me so that I could put it on the page. I revised information that was not complete before I put it on the page. I did most of the voice- overs for iMovie and met with Video manager for a total of 5.5 hours until it was completed. I also helped gather information for the video. I contributed to writing a substantial amount of the script for the instrumental action part of the iMovie. I came to the library early on two occasions to make sure that we got a Mac and I also rented two microphones from the library. I spoke with the professor after class in order to gain clarity on any misunderstood information.

==[[social balance theory]] History page here ==

I was the contact for the group. I met with Dr. Welser to come up with the foundation for the outline. I made sure that the sections were assigned to different people. Our page only had a few sentences on it. I expanded on them to make it more complete. I found the articles that were used for the shaping of the page.

I gave details and notes on transitivity, which is one section that makes up social balance theory as a whole. Also, I made grammatical edits to the user page and gave ideas of how to better our video.

After this our group received a dead line for the project so I researched as much as I could before the dead line to finish off my topic. Once I did I e-mailed my group to notify them that my section was ready.

= [[Historical_comparative_research]]=

We lost two group members but I still feel that we were able to overcome many of our difficulties to create a very respectable page. I created the page and helped decide the topics to be discussed, as I created the headlines. I also helped in fleshing out articles by drawing upon the mahoney book I rented from the library. I also helped in the legitimization of the page by adding references and sources. I often would save after minor edits then do an edit immediately after following that, so it is difficult to use the history page to show the single eidts from edit to edit. It would be more helpful to look at the page at end of edits of one day compared the first edit of the given day.

In acting as the velvet hammer in my group, I basically sat back and shouted orders with my feet up on my desk. On a serious note, my contribution to the group was the entire section on SOURCES for secondary data. I only have two or three links because I basically added all of my information at one time from home. Our group split the workload of the project, and we all took care of our own individual sections. In class (lab) we all discussed and agreed on each section upon being completed.

I think that the majority of our group contributed to the wikipedia page equally and thus, produced an awesome page. Though one member hardly contributed at all, most of us took the necessary steps in the creation of the page. When the outline was due, all of the members, including myself were in attendance to work on the power point and contribute. When working on the project in class, we all used the class time well and used it to our advantage. I feel my contributions to the project held as much weight as the rest of the group. Though my contributions came towards the end, I feel that they were just as important and relevant as anyone elses. On the section about “Demographic Analysis in Institutions and Organizations”, I contributed all the sub-sections under it, and I think this was a significant contribution. Lastly, like a stated before, I feel that most of the group members contributed to the page and that the page turned out to be a successful demonstration of our knowledge of the topic and the use of certain research techniques.

I was in charge of making the Standardization portion of our page. I feel though, that the majority of our group worked well together and contributed equally, and I am pretty sure we lost the member (erica?) that had our most valuable research book somewhere along the way, but the other 4 of us persevered it and came together to make a pretty good page on demographic analysis.

http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User%3AAaron1509%2FCausal_Explanation_and_Research_Design&diff=166618425&oldid=165121032These links are the main portion of my work. Aaron Renee and myself did most of the work together. I did a few other cleaning up edits, and I did not log in to put in any more edits myself because all three of us were working on it together, so there was no need for one person to sign out, that would have wasted time. The three of us did Derek's work after we saw what he put up was inadequate. The three of us contributed an equal amount of work to the page.

[[Theory of religious economy]]

How does this fit in the theories of religion? To me it seems like a largely abandoned theory that has been superseded by the Theories_of_religion#Rational_choice_theory, but I am not sure. I would appreciate your help because I believe the article Theory of religious economy in its current state without contextualization (history, time and the degree of acceptance in the academic world) and explicit attribution to various scholars is not helpful and should be deleted or merged.
