Students are tasked with analyzing and applying social theories to real-world scenarios, through the study of a chosen theorist's life, perspective, and concepts, and making comparisons with another theorist.
The assignment at hand is multifaceted and meant to deepen the understanding of social theories by applying them to real-life scenarios. It entails selecting a theorist whose perspective resonates with the student's own worldview, elaborating on the theorist's life history, relating personally to their theory, contrasting their key concepts with another theorist's, defining these concepts, providing personal examples, and organizing the information in a chart with headings.
This exercise not only promotes critical thinking but also encourages students to draw connections between academic knowledge and real-world experiences.
