Several assignments are required for this research class. It is common sense that one of the best ways to learn about reserach is to actually conduct research - not just read about it. Research can be exciting! Specific assignments include the following:
- a deviant assignment (participant observation research method)
- a content analysis (researching the content of media and how it may or many not change over time)
- an interview (interview research method)
- a group research project (including a group written paper and group oral presentation)
