Assignment:
Watch Deviance: Crash Course Sociology #18, to learn how deviance and social control affects our daily lives.
Submit your journal entry via the following format (copy my template below and then paste it into your journal entry), typing your answers in a different colored font.
1) How would you explain the concept of deviance to a friend in your own words? Pretend you are talking to someone about this course. Write what you would share about the concept of deviance based upon what you've learned from the textbook and the video above. Feel free to use examples as well in your explanation.
Your detailed paragraph response will be typed here, in a different colored font.
2) After watching the video, what types of factors do you think might play into a person's deviance? Explain/share any personal experiences you've had with observing someone else's deviance. Do you see any correlation to potential factors discussed in the video and what you have observed in others?
Your detailed paragraph response will be typed here, in a different colored font.
3) Think about deviant behaviors that are only deviant when society labels them as such. {An example from the video was sleeping in a tent. It's okay to sleep in a tent when camping in the woods but it's not okay to pitch a tent and sleep in the middle of a sidewalk in a city.} Identify one activity that can be deviant when society labels it that way but isn't deviant when it's "done" in the appropriate format.
