Week 3 Discussion 2
Social Construction
For this
discussion, you must read Chapter 8 and Chapter 9 of the text, Sociology:
Beyond Common Sense, the article The
‘Pink vs Blue’ Gender Myth, and watch the three videos, Social
Construction (Links to an external site.),[Transcript] RACE:
Are We So Different? , and A
Girl Like Me [Transcript].
[Note
that A Girl Like Me uses words or language that are considered profane, vulgar
or offensive by some viewers. Ashford University does not condone such content
that may be objectionable; however, the video is being used due to its impact
and education value in understanding social construction.] After reviewing
these resources on varied perspectives of social construction, consider the
following questions:
·
What is
social construction?
· Which
example from the resources provided did you find most compelling in building
your knowledge of social construction? Describe it and explain why you found it
most useful.
Your initial post should be at least 250 words
in length. Support your claims with examples from required material(s) and/or
other scholarly resources, and properly cite any references. Respond to at
least two of your classmates’ posts.
