WLD 142 - Microsociological Perspectives for Leade

Institution:

Franklin College - Indiana

Subject:

Description:

This course will focus on the exploration and application of two unique sociological perspectives, ethnomethodology (Harold Garfinkel) and Dramaturgical analysis (Erving Goffman). Students will be exposed to the theoretical and methodological tenets of these approaches within the broader context of the practice of leadership in everyday life. Special attention will be given to computer-mediated forms of interaction and students will therefore be expected to spend substantial amounts of time (both in class and outside of class) working on projects/assignments requiring intensive, sustained work on networked computers. A variety of field experiences will also be required. Evaluation will be based on classroom and field exercises, out-of-class assignments/projects, online journals, and a final exam based on leadership content of the course.
