Soc Day 2 - Pioneers Research

Shortened Class - 2 Hour Delay

"It is a peculiar sensation, this double-consciousness, this sense of always looking at one's self through the eyes of others, of measuring one's soul by the tape of a world that looks on in amused contempt and pity."  W.E.B. DuBois

Objective:  Investigate the manner in which society impacts the individual.

Task:  Good morning!  When you arrive to class, please get out a computer and go to the AW80B blog.  We'll spend a few minutes creating your VoiceThread account.  Use your SV student email address to create your account.  If you would like to add a school appropriate image or photo as your icon, select the "Identities" option on the account dropdown menu.  Next, we'll discuss the 20 statements activity from Friday and, if there is any time remaining, we'll evaluate the quote above.
