Explain and examine your social location through a public sociological lens applying concepts and theoretical insights toward an empirical analysis of family and self. Due to the amount of work included in the project as well as number of points, this project will be completed in parts. The final part of the project will be submitted during the module six. Upon completion of this project you should have a broader understanding of sociology, develop new technological skills, and familiarity with different presentation programs.
