1. Course Description
Sociology is an academic discipline and different from social studies you've learned until now. What matters in sociological studies is not gaining new knowledge about school subjects or memorizing those textbooks. Instead of that, you must doubt what you've learned so far and have a different point of view from which you can see the world another way.
In this introductory course, I will clarify the way of thinking peculiar to sociology, referring to a number of social realities you are familiar with.
