           Sociology In Your Face Philosophy
 
  • High cost of textbooks prevent some students from being succesful in their introduction to society courses. 

 

  • Traditional sociology textbooks may not be able to keep up with the fast pace of current events.

 

  • The use of emotion; from humor to outrage is important in learning and retention.

 

  • When students connect academic material to their own lives, they gain a deeper understanding of themselves and the motivation to become a catalyst for positive change in society.
