I am teaching Introduction to Sociology for the first
time this
semester and am looking for good resources/books/ideas to give me a
stronger foundation of Sociology, as by background is in Psychology.
Also, I am looking for exercises (prefer. experientia)l to do in class
with my students.

Welcome to the list, Alyssa.
First, I would recommend visiting the ASA Teaching
Resources Center to look at materials. Go to http://www.e-noah.net/asa/asashoponlineservice/productslist.aspx?CategoryID=ASATT&selection=11. Many wonderful materials are available there, but for Intro,
I would probably start with Innovative Techniques for Teaching Sociological
Concepts (Fourth Edition) edited by Sandi Kawecka
Nenga and Edward L. Kain. You MIGHT also want to look at Introductory
Sociology Resource Manual compiled by James Sikora and
Teodora Amoloza--also at the same
place.
In addition, there are wonderful active
learning ideas in Sociology through Active
Learning: Student Exercises. Kathleen McKinney, Frank D. Beck, and
Barbara S. Heyl, editors. Thousand
Oaks ,
CA : Pine Forge Press.
2001. ISBN: 0-7619-8719-3
(Also has an Instructor's Manual with background on
each student exercise and further suggestions for
use.)
