Assignment #1:

(This assignment focuses on the impact of the agents of socialization on our lives. To complete this assignment, interview someone you would consider an agent of socialization, someone who has influenced your life decisions, values, or goals.

This could be a parent or other family member, a teacher, a coach, a friend, a co-worker or boss, a minister or priest, etc.

Ask the person you interview the extent to which they realize the role they played in influencing your life and what they hoped you would learn from them and the example they set.

You might also ask why people in their position can have such an important impact on people's lives.)

In a 1-2 page essay, based on your interview and your personal experience, discuss the role that individual played as an agent of socialization and explain how that individual affected your socialization and your values, beliefs, or goals.

In your essay, include at least one direct quote from your interview and use at least three concepts from the Module 01 or Module 02 content; highlight these concepts in boldface.

Include a brief introductory paragraph as well as a concluding paragraph that sums up your key points. Do not write in a question and answer format, rather summarize and analyze your interview in narrative form. Make sure your paper is in APA format, double-spaced, with a title page.
