A while ago, someone asked about the proposed AP Sociology curriculum. The link to it is at www.asanet.org/cs/root/topnav/sociology_depts/an/aptype_sociology_high_achool_course Unfortunately it seems that the latest casualty of the state graduation tests and increased graduation requirements will be psychology and sociology courses. Michigan DOE has sent out a memorandum stating since those two courses aren't on the test, they don't need to be taught and they're recommending to Michigan colleges and universities that they should no longer offer psychology and sociology as teaching majors. I know there's been heated discussion about thie merits of teaching HS psych and soc here in the past, but as someone who loves the two orphans of social studies, there is a feeling of a door slamming hard and I hate that.
