Alyssa, I like my modified monopoly game to teach social inequality using an experiential approach--it is available on-line:
Ender, Morten G. (2004). "Modified Monopoly: A simulation came for teaching social inequality." Academic Exchange Quarterly, 8(2): http://www.rapidintellect.com/AEQweb/mo2585l4.htm. Also, we've used an autophotography project successfully both with college students and high schoolers to teach the self -concept (I'll have it scanned and send as it isn't copyrighted): Ender, Morten G. (1997). "Who Am I?: Autophotography as a teaching and learning tool." The Great Plains Sociologist, 10(1):15-25. Morano-Ender, Corina and Morten G. Ender. (1996). "A picture and a thousand words: Autophotography in the ESOL classroom and beyond." Teaching and Learning: The Journal of Natural Inquiry 10(2):28-32. Let me know how they go...morten -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of alyssa Sent: Tuesday, September 12, 2006 9:53 AM To: Teaching Sociology Subject: TEACHSOC: New to Sociology 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.
