Description
you get to select one of the six articles below (each of which is posted as a pdf file in the Module). Take a brief look at each of the articles to see which one appears the most interesting to you. As with the previous written assignment, read the selected article and write a 3-4 page paper (double-spaced, 10-12 pt font, 1000-1500 words) for submission.Each paper should consist primarily of a very detailed review of the article (tell me what the article was about), with a short discussion section at the end (1/2 page). Do not cut-n-paste from the text or other sources, and do not quote text from the article (synthesize and paraphrase- I know what the author said, I want to know what you think they said!). For the discussion section, pick out and discuss some aspect of the article that you found to be the most interesting, surprising, and/or problematic. Please discuss why this topic was noteworthy to you. Feel free to express your personal opinions, including agreement or disagreement with the arguments (and your reasoning behind these stances).Remember that the use of various forms of AI software like ChatGBT and some uses of Grammarly to generate text for this written assignment is considered plagiarism.

Self-Guided Exploration Project
The purpose of this assignment is to allow students to deeply explore a topic related to American Indian/Alaska Native people. Each student will identify a topic (e.g., tribe, event, individual, cultural art, practice, policy, etc.), develop a plan to learn about that topic, and regularly share (informally) with the class information about that topic. Students are encouraged to select topics that pique their interests; topics need not be directly related to social welfare.
Requirements:
1) Submit Topic & Plan – Each student should identify a topic and propose a brief plan of action (1 page), including references and sources for exploring the topic.
2) Research Paper – Develop an 8-10 page research paper on the topic, including relevant facts, context, and meaning surrounding the topic. Incorporate and document sources of information on the topic (including written scholarly sources, but also oral history, tribal or other AI/AN records, interviews, memoirs, etc.). Use APA style and references.
3) Presentation -Students must create a brief (5 minutes) online presentation to be shared with classmates. Students have considerable flexibility in how they present their exploration topic, they may use Powerpoint, video, audio, or any other format or medium to share this presentation.
Paper and presentation should address the following elements:
• Introduce and explain the topic.
• Provide context on the topic (e.g., the topic’s relationship to a particular time, event, Tribe, policy, contemporary representation, etc.).
• Connect the topic to materials covered in the course.
• Explore the topic’s relevance to social welfare. How is/might knowledge of this topic be incorporated into social welfare practice, policy, or research?
This is my topic for the project : Topic: The Trail of Tears
The event from the 1830s which forced the evacuation and relocation of Native Americans, especially the Cherokee Nation, from their ancestral homelands in the Southeast to modern-day Oklahoma is known as the “Trail of Tears,” a tragic period in American history. I chose to talk about the Trail of Tears because it is a painful and important event in American history that has affected Indigenous populations in the country for a long time. Indigenous peoples have been systematically oppressed and dispossessed, as seen by the forcible displacement of Native American tribes. The Trail of Tears is a moving reminder of the wrongs committed against Native Americans by the US government, showcasing their tenacious grit and fortitude in the face of hardship. Recognizing the Trail of Tears’ historical relevance is essential to understanding the current battles for social welfare, justice, and Indigenous sovereignty. The Indian Removal Act of 1830, which authorized the U.S. government to organize this tragic trek, caused thousands of Native Americans to be uprooted and many more to perish from malnourishment, famine, and exposure to hostile environments. A permanent legacy of pain and resiliency among impacted Indigenous communities, the Trail of Tears stands for a grave injustice and a grave violation of Indigenous sovereignty and rights.

Task summary:
You are to create a presentation based on Problems in Education and follow the 3 goals to complete this task. Use chapter 8 for your reference
Full order description:
Dear Freelancer,
please create a presentation
MAIN DETAILS:
Throughout the semester, we have covered numerous topics about sociology, social structure, social institutions and social problems. Numerous concepts and topics have been presented to help us understand problems/challenges such as Health Disparities (E.g. in maternal/Child Health, COVID-19 treatments), Alcohol/Drug epidemic, Poverty, Inequalities of Race, Class, Gender, Sexuality, etc., etc., Create a 5-8 minute voice or video thread in D2L discussing how the problem you selected has impacted everyday life. Use concepts from this course and sociology in general, to explain what is happening. You can record yourself talking, develop a PowerPoint, make a photovoice presentation, or anything else that comes to mind. Think of this as a short informational video that could be uploaded to YouTube or a podcast.
The goal for this exercise is to have you:
1) demonstrate understanding of what you have learned in the course by applying sociological concepts or theories
2) demonstrate knowledge of how to communicate a problem using technology, and
3) demonstrate ability to use critical-thinking, and problem-solving skills.
Choose the problem: Problems in Education
Use the textbook to get your information from Ch. 8

SOLUTIONS PROJECT
Articulate an informed vision on future research ideas AND structural solutions to your social problem. Find one country that is doing well in solving or reducing your social problem and figure out the ways in which they are going about solving or reducing this social problem. How are they making a significant impact? Find the programs or policies that are working by finding 2 scholarly peer reviewed sources (preferably sociology or criminology, but not mandatory). You may also use the country’s government websites as sources.
Create a 5-10 minute video (preferred) or prezi presentation. Explain both your literature review (social problem in the U.S.), and your structural solutions (country and policies or programs). You will present these to the class in a forum and every student will peer review 3 projects.

GUIDELINES & REQUIREMENTS
1.) Present your social problem in the US. Give an overall summary of what you learned and presented in your literature review. Give statistics to help us understand why this is an important social problem.
2.) Present your solution country. Give an overall summary of what you learned and what they are doing to reduce/solve the social problem. Give statistics that show us the difference between this country and the US, in regards to your social problem.
3.) Be very specific and give 2-3 structural solutions to your social problem (remember structural change comes from institutions – not individuals).
4.) Post your project in the assignment link as well as the Peer Review Forum. Make sure it is in a format everyone can access easily. Submit a reference page of your Solutions resources.

Tasks:
Note: You must post before you will see anyone else’s posts.
1/Original post
After watching the lecture video and reading your required readings for the module, write a post or post a video that addresses 3 of the following 4 prompts in 350 original words or up to 8 mins of audio/video recording:
1/ Your answer to the question about the Kinsey material from the lecture video.
2/ A paragraph on how gay gang members negotiated their identities in light of others’ reactions to them (Panfil chapter)
3/ A consideration of what was said about hate crime laws in the video from the Transgender Law Center and how the main ideas forwarded relate to ideas or perspectives from our class.
4/ An analysis of the experiences outlined on traveling while transgender in light of specific ideas from lecture.
2/Response:
Analyze a student’s post who has not yet been responded to (ideally) in an original post that brings in new ideas from class materials and cites them explicitly (e.g., Swan Module 11 Lecture Video 2024; Panfil 2017: page number). (150-word min). Remember the goal of the response is to continue deepening the discussion by adding new information and sharing your take on the material.

After reading the chapter and reviewing the PowerPoint and supplemental readings on the course site, you should complete the following tasks:
Answer the questions below. Your responses should be AT LEAST, 5 to 7 sentence, paragraph per question set (meaning numbers 1,2,3, etc. should be about one paragraph in length.) Your responses should demonstrate a clear engagement and understanding of the course material, critical application of the sociological concepts/theory and should include clear grammar and sentence structure. Please review the assignment rubric under ′Course Resources′ for clearer indication of grading distribution and let me know if you have any questions/concerns.
Questions:
1) Professional football and baseball teams, as well as numerous high school and college sports teams, use American Indian mascots. Some American Indians and their supporters object to this practice, suggesting that it is offensive. Use the Internet to research the issue and create a list of arguments used by those who defend and those who reject American Indian mascots. With which position do you agree and why?
2) To better understand the idea that race is a social construction and the real life impact that it has on individuals, I would like for you to research the effect that the corona-virus (Covid-19) has had on xenophobia, hate crimes and the perceptions of race in the US. Find one article or news story about xenophobia and the corona-virus. How does this article demonstrate the concepts of racialization, racial formation and racial projects? Now you should use one of the three theoretical paradigms (functionalism, conflict theory, symbolic interactionism) to analyze the story. Please provide the link to the news story.
3) The PowerPoint discussed three fallacies of racism ( notes section of slides). Attempt to find evidence either for or against two of the three fallacies. That is, can you prove that the fallacies are in fact fallacies or is there some truth to them? Explain your answer using a sociological perspective of your choice (e.g. intersectionality, institutional racism, racial formation theory, etc.)
1) For example: The individualistic fallacy states that racism functions at the individual level; people are racists, but institutions and society in general, are not racist. I know this is not true, proving that it is in fact a fallacy, because incarceration and arrests records (source) indicate that people of color are, in fact, arrested, imprisoned, etc. at higher rates than their white counterparts…..
