Homework:

1. Chapter 12 Reader Response...last textbook chapter for the semester!!

2. Gender Socialization Observation Notes: Think like a sociologist and do some informal field work to look for gender roles, stereotypes, expectations, etc. 

Observe people in places such as the dining hall, common room, class, public places, etc. and take some notes on the gender roles and socialization you see. 

If you are able to, go to a store and look in toy aisles, clothes aisles, etc. and take some notes on how gender roles are broken down in stores. If you can't get to a store, look through catalogs or store websites.

Your notes should be titled with the location you are observing and the time of day. Your observation notes can be in bulleted/list form, but must be detailed and clear. 

Notes may be typed or handwritten--your choice. We will discuss and I will collect during Friday's class.

Tuesday/Friday class: DUE FRIDAY, April 21
Monday/Thursday class: DUE MONDAY, April 24
