Can U find the anagram?

 

 

  • Uncover visual methods that analyze pop culture text, still image, or moving image to ascertain how people, places and things are represented in society

  • Gather primary data from a natural environment

  • Observe, interact with, and interview everyday people where they live, work, and play

  • Study various media sources (TV, magazines, web content, film, archival records, etc.) to better understand specific cultures, sub-cultures, trends, and norms

  • Operate, engage, and participate within real world settings

  • Communicate using interpretative frameworks to understand behaviors and develop over-arching societal themes

 

"Step into new environments to observe, participate, or discover new experiences.  In field work, the sociologists, rather than the subjects, are the ones out of their element."
