Summary
In first link, I read about sociology, sociology’ history and development and difference between quantitative, qualitative sociology and so on.
In
second link, I read about why people go sociology and future after graduation.
Interesting point
Interesting
thing is positivist sociology and verstehen sociology connect with
quantitative, qualitative sociology.
But I’m not sure how they are matched.
But I think quantitative sociology is deductive research and qualitative sociology is inductive research. Is this right?
I haven’t known who Comte is. So I search him in Wikipedia. It said He made sociology and influenced many theorists. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Auguste_Comte)
During reading, his opinion are unfamiliar but interesting.
And I haven’t heard about verstehen sociology. It was also unfamiliar but I understood it.
I felt difficulty when I read the development of social science section. I don’t know accurately so I want to know about it next class.

My opinion
I learned subject called ‘society & culture’ at highschool and liked it. That’s why I selected my major. But most students don’t feel satisfied with career opportunity.
I also worry about what I should do after graduation. I think it’s because society focuses on practical things. But sociology is less practical than other majors. So my major, information sociology, teach students practical thing like programming. I want to hear friend's opinions.
I think that sociology should focus on practicality too.
ReplyDeleteBecause contemporary society find talanted person with practical ability.
But there are numerous course to learn practical technique in our major more than many people think.
There are class to make program,class to deal with bigdata, and class to make a web content in practice.
But I am still regrettable because most of person think sociology only deal with useless theory.
