With the bad mark I got on a recent online quiz and me not still not caring much for physical anthro despite having a heightened appreciation of it now when timetable pickings roll around tomorrow I've got trouble picking the 5th one.

The four I'm decided on is

-Group Dynamics - A Human Services Perspective
-Literature for General Arts & Science
-Issues In Health And Healing
-Race and Ethnic Dynamics

Now I'm deciding between

-Developmental psych
-Intro to globalization
And
-Sociology 2

With the offbeat change that I might even be able to take business next semester…but no I’ll get that in office admin.I’m in gen.arts and sci to have fun and enjoy myself for once.Let’s look at the descriptions

For all these classes though it’s always nice to soley hear a teacher talk on a subject like this b/c you get nice glimpse at a maybe intellectual’s take on something and it’s nice to see someone use their voice so up close

Sociology 2

“Sociology provides links between human behaviour and the social environment. This course explores the diverse perspectives that may be used to explain the connection between behaviour and social world. It demonstrates the way systematic studies are used to promote questions of assumptions about social life. Particular areas of study include social structure, social interaction, inequality of race, ethnicity and gender, the family, population, and social movements and social change.”

Whereas Sociology 1 was

“Sociology provides insight into how society influences human behaviour. By studying the problems and social issues in society, we are able to gain a better understanding of how society affects people. This course explores various sociological perspectives and demonstrates how systematic studies are used to challenge commonsense perspectives about social life. Particular areas of study include culture, socialization, deviant behaviour, social inequality and economy.”

Seems like soc2 is an expansion pack on soc1.I took soc1 over the summer and while fun and I learned a lot I was lazy that semester and that was when it was all on computer with essentially a few essays to do every now and then with online evaluations.Regular day school will take advantage to pile on the work, so no.Seems like something I can pick up on,on a typical library shelf. talk about such things and what they’re talking about reflecting on their personality and upbringing

Globalization

“This course will explain main definitions related to globalization: colonialization, neoliberalism, deregulation, WTO, IMF, free trade, fair trade, etc. It will also examine different global issues in each continent, for example, labour conditions in Asia, extraction of mineral resources in Africa, the European Union labour market, racism in Europe, the USA influence in the economic development of Latin America, migration in North America, sustainability in Canada. The majority of these global issues will be analyzed from a Global North/ Global South perspective.”

Meeh… seems like much of the stuff I can find in a typical newspaper with this class showing me how to deconstruct like I've been learning in pop culture this semester where we talked about current pop culture stuff we also talked about deconstructing abstract cultural ideas and brought up some interesting theorists.But I also remember a similar class in high school I switched out of b/c I meant to originally take co-op.Soon after I heard about the loads of work the teacher was pressing which I can happening here..but a lot of this stuff I’ve already heard about and I don’t really wanna rehash when "the layers that are offered on the meal are tastes I’m already familiar with".Nice to see the use of “global south and global north” though.

Development psych

“The study of human development from conception to death focusing on physical, cognitive, social and personality growth throughout the lifespan.”

With my recent interest on family and the reputation that psych classes have for being easy..this seems to fit the bill.The bill of learning something while sitting back and learning much like going to casually out to see a movie (a typical blockbuster movie) that turns out to be pleasantly stimulating (I heard that “Inception” was like this for some ppl).The problem though,that I’ve been worried about when it comes to psych classes..will it make me more insular?.Will it make me more navel gazing?.Will it make me more nvale gazing in a new way?.Will it make me navel gazing in a regressive way?.I doubt it,sorta.By taking this class I can put that fear to the test and see if that happens.If it wont ,it wont.And with my new motors for learning this I’m sure I’ll have fun and wont fall off the boat easily if I think that something is wrong…although it might increase my tendancy to think about the pasts of ppl who are jerks..even more?..in a better way ?..in a more clear way?.

Gonna see if my program co-ordinatior is there and ask about the business

“This course is designed to help the learner understand the role of business in Canada by focusing on the basics of management and organizational theory.”

class

Don’t think I’ll take it though.Still though,maybe it worths bringing up
