You must apply the terms/concepts, research data/findings, and social theories related to the main topics to your playing field/your experiences. Go through the chapters in the textbook, online lectures, and articles/other course material provided in the lessons on each of the main topics you are including in your paper and apply the relevant material to your playing field/your experiences (this is the way you will go about working on this assignment).

A minimum of six terms/concepts/research data is required in each main topic section; a minimum of eighteen instances of application of terms/concepts/research data throughout your paper.  For each subtopic you will apply key terms and/or research data on the topic.  Clear and complete application and analysis required.

Apply the social theories presented in the course material: structural functionalism, conflict theory, symbolic interactionism, social learning theory, or theories of deviance.  Theories must be directly applied to your specific playing field/experiences.  Do not discuss the theories in general, directly apply them to your playing field and your experiences and explain application. Explain the theory and explain application.  Social theory can be applied to a specific example or can be applied to the overall theme of the main topic section.  Clear and complete application and analysis is required.
In some instances students will need to predict the long term effects of particular experiences, predict according to the research data/findings on the topics. In terms of predictions ask yourself, how, according to the data presented in the course, the events have affected you or will affect you in the future.  If the effects presented in the research/study findings for a particular issue do not apply to you then you can state what the effects generally are (according to the research data/findings) and then discuss what the outcome(s) were for you and explain why.
It is not required that you include sensitive issues if you are not comfortable doing so. In this case it is suggested that you focus on other aspects of your playing field.
