Assignment:
You have used several of your response from 2012 in my current Sociology class. I was wondering if you could provide me a response to the following questions.
1. Describe the schooling in India and Japan. How does it relate to the schooling children receive in the United States?
2. Compare and contrast some of the issues regarding health in the United States. Provide three examples of and create solutions on how these can be prevented/resolved.
3. Make an argument for and against the symbolic-interaction approach in schooling.
4. Examine the different types of medical care in high-income nations around the world. Describe which is most beneficial for a country with a population over 300 million. What are some solutions to the problem of healthcare?
5. In your own words, define migration. How has migration affected the population centers throughout the United States? Provide examples.
6. According to Macionis, "I = PAT, where environmental impact (I) reflects a society's population (P), its level of affluence (A), and its level of technology (T)" (2011, p. 463). In other words, the higher the population, the richer the country, and the higher level of technology, causes a greater impact upon the environment of that society. In your own words, describe the term environmental deficit, and discuss the effects a rising global population has upon the environment.
