last blog entries - suggestions

I understand you're busy with lots of projects and papers, but let me give you a number of suggestions if you feel like updating your blog. I promise to read your entries during the Christmas holiday!

-          What are your thoughts on the Stanford Prison Experiment? Have you ever been in a situation where group pressure and dynamics have made you or other people act against your beliefs?

-          Analyse drop off and pick up times at two different schools (preferably very different ones). Just by looking and listening,  what information can you obtain about the type of school it is, its values, the families of the children who attend (social class, etc.) Any obvious status symbols?

-          Analyse features of CES Don Bosco’s hidden curriculum. What values / attitudes / beliefs are being taught tacitly, through teacher behavior, customs and external symbols?

-          Watch one of the following films and analyse it using sociological concepts:

o   La clase (Entre les murs) (2008), http://www.imdb.es/title/tt1068646/

o   La ola (Die welle), (2008) http://www.imdb.es/title/tt1063669/maindetails
