Each week you are exposed to a new topic and new resources to help you better understand the topic. After four weeks of learning, you will puzzle through the ways that articles, videos, podcasts, and other resources connect to each other, connect to the topics covered, relate to future topics, and ultimately, help you better understand the material over the past four weeks.
In this paper, please address the questions below in the following labeled sections: (A) Concise Summary, (B) Explanation of Relevancy, and (C) Muddy points. You are also expected to cite sources within the text (in APA format) – connecting your ideas and understanding back to specific examples from the resources (quotes, paraphrasing, etc.). The paper should be 4+ pages in length.
A concise summary of the topics/resources: In your own words, summarize the key topics provided over the past four weeks (you can break this section into Week 1, 2, 3, or 4 – or some other organized way but do label the sections). Keep in mind the questions: What is/are the weekly topics? What are the themes found in the resources? How do these topics contribute to an understanding of the family in society?
An explanation of the relevancy of the resources: Discuss how the resources do or don’t connect to the class, to other things you have read elsewhere, and/or to your own life and experiences. Ask yourself: How do the resources connect to some of the larger issues in the class? Do these resources provide accurate descriptions of the world? Why/why not? Do they relate to my life and experiences? What is particularly important for me about these resources? (How) do they make me think about the world differently?
Muddy Points: After thinking through the material you’ve covered up to this point, think about what questions came up for you. What additional topics or questions could be addressed or need to be answered each week? Please include 2+ questions/muddy points for each week.
