Sociological Perspective Skits
Sociology – Sociology Perspective Skits
Three Main Sociological Perspectives:
1. Functionalist (macro)
2. Conflict (macro)
3. Interactionist (micro)
Working in groups of three or four, you will be assigned one of the above perspectives. Keep your perspective SECRET! When it is your turn to present, the rest of the class will try to figure out which perspective you are representing—which you should make incredibly easy for them. The skit should be instructional and informative, meaning it both presents your assigned perspective as it relates to education, but clarifies that is NOT to be confused with either of the other two perspectives.
Note to Students: Functionalist, conflict and interactionist perspectives apply to all areas of sociology. You will be required to know and apply these three perspectives to every unit during the semester.
Requirements:
1. Your skit must be set in a classroom-any age or grade. It can be a preschool; it can be medical school.
2. You must turn in a script including at least 20 lines.
3. Your skit must include dialogue between two or more characters.
4. You must include at least one or more props. These should be pre-made and not “found” objects..
5. You need to create a “background” for your skit using PowerPoint or another computer program to be projected on the Promethean Board. You may create multiple “backgrounds” for scene changes. (Search Google)
Suggestions:
• add a soundtrack quietly in background or dramatic music to highlight a scene
• make opening or closing credits on PowerPoint
• wear a costume
• add over-the-top hand movements and facial expressions
• add a dramatic, cheery, or creepy narrator
• create signs to hold up like Wile E. Coyote
• be creative…
