Welcome to Intro to Sociology!

This is my supplemental website that I will be using to share my powerpoints with you and extra content that you can use to further your "sociological imagination."


This class is 8 weeks long, and in those 8 weeks, we will be discussing many different aspects of sociology.


Sociology is the study of society and/or groups and their behavior. So who/what exactly do we study?
-Small groups, large groups
-Racial/ethnic groups
-Gender groups
-Sexual orientation/sexuality groups
-Rich/poor/in-between groups
-Deviant groups

Click on this great introduction video to an Introduction to Sociology. Please watch and take any notes and questions down you may have:


Here is another short video to give you some visual ideas of what groups and situations to expect to learn about while taking this course:

Discussion Question: What groups do you want to learn about in this class?
