Sociology -- Chapter 3 Culture Adaptation/Values
Music is so much more than mere entertainment. It provides a commentary on many
aspects of life, both good and bad. It helps people relate to situations that they have faced or better understand those that they have not faced. In short, music makes a statement about our culture while also impacting it. It tells us a story.
Your Task:
We have defined sociology as the study of how people interact in groups. You will select a song and analyze the song lyrics to demonstrate an understanding of how American culture is reflected in our music.
The assignment will be evaluated based on the points awarded each section and it will count as Project grade.
Your Choice: Complete a Written Report or a PREZI or a PowerPoint to include the following items:
1. List your song title & artist (5 points)
2. A copy of the lyrics of your song should be included with your assignment with the YouTube video embedded in. (5 points)
3. Identify which of Robin Williams’ American values are reflected in the song. See your notes for an explanation of the values. (5 points)
4. Using excerpts from the song, explain how the song illustrates each of the values that you identified. (10 points)
5. What is message of the song? What lesson do we learn from it about human interaction? What is the song trying to teach us? ( 5 points)
Your total for this project is: 30 points
**Be careful with the language used in the song. Inappropriate language will result in a zero for the entire project.**
