Submit your final concept map and paper. It should be a complete, polished artifact containing all of the critical elements of the final product. It should reflect the incorporation of feedback gained throughout the course and for Milestones One through Three.
Good start! You have made a good beginning here with this subject and the data you identified about this critical issue. Addiction NEEDS more attention and action.
So, I had some questions for you as you continue. Here are some suggested avenues for you to explore:
1. Why are we just now as a culture discussing this topic?
2. How do we intervene as a society?
3. Which sociological theory best addresses the reality of addiction?
4. Which environmental variables help create or facilitate this topic?
Keep looking at this topic as a sociologist! Be sure you spend some time in your research unpacking some of the environmental causes of addiction ... sociologists would attribute EXTERNAL social realities as having an impact on the development of addiction.
