Series: Introduction to Sociology
Over the 2023-2024 academic year, we’ll be publishing a series on teaching Introduction to Sociology as a form of public sociology. Intro to Sociology is often the first contact students have with the discipline of sociology, but Intro students are also “first publics” for instructors who want to teach public sociology engagement and reflection.
In this series, we ask contributors to think of their own experiences in Intro to Sociology courses as teachers and students and invite them to reflect on how public sociology can be imagined and fostered in this early stage of sociological study. We invite Class Notes and Reflections on teaching Intro as public sociology, following our submissions guidelines here.
