My First Sociology Blog!
I'm writing this blog as a part of my sociology degree and this is my first ever blog so i'm not too sure what i'm doing!
The topics that im looking forward to researching and covering in more depth are around the sociology of childhood and gender and race relations. Im hoping that this blog will help me reflect on what i already know on these topics and what knowledge i go on to develop throughout the rest of the course.
For this module, doing social research, i expect to widen my knowledge on what it is like to be a 'social researcher', developing and gaining more knowledge around my interests in my own studies of data, primary and secondary research.
I hope to gain more insight to research methods and what resources are available that may benefit me in my third year when it comes to doing my dissertation.
So far this module interests me because it involves more of a hands on type of learning, through blogging and posters rather than just doing essays! But having said that, I do find this quite challenging at the same time because this isn't what i'm used to.
