Todd � 4/24/13 3:41 PM Comment [7]: Degradation ceremonies.
Todd � 4/24/13 3:35 PM Comment [8]: Focus on socialization from the Symbolic Interactionist paradigm.
Todd � 4/24/13 3:44 PM Comment [9]: Think about these concepts carefully for a while. In thinking about the implications of Mead and Cooley’s work, consider the content of If Mirrors Could Speak, and the reasons the film was produced, distributed, and shown in classrooms in the first place. In general, look for examples of Mead and Cooley’s concepts in the creepy social engineering film.
