logy (SYG 2000) March 24 1 Ilipm Appendix 1: Reflexive Analysis* Part of the course involves writing a detailed, empirical, and analytical reflexive analysis that sociologically analyzes an empirical story from your own life. Your story will involve a real situation or set of situations. Think about it this way: What have you experienced place to show that you are engaged with the course material and discussions and can apply sociological analysis to your own life. The challenge here is to see whether you can go substantially beyond the lectures, discussions, and in-class activities to offer your own unique analyses and insights. Your Reflexive Analysis entry will be typed, between three and four pages long (12 point font, 1" margins all around, Arial font), and double-spaced. Analyses will be graded on relevance, critical thinking, and connections and analysis beyond what is covered in class. *Adapted from Packard, Josh. 2013. The Impact of Racial Diversity in the Classroom: Activating the Sociological Imagination." Teaching Sociology 41(2): 144-158. Your Reflexive Analysis: Part I: Data In about one page (the first page), you will thickly describe an empirical event from your own life. In other words, you will tell a real story about something that actually happened in your life. Tell a story about yourself. Describe only the things in and of the situation that are relevant to your analysis. Your story should be empirically accurate, that is, something that actually happened (think: non-fiction, not fiction). This should be about one page, maybe a page and a half. Remember that strong writing, and storytelling, is rich with "thick” description that takes the reader there. This is your goal. Clifford Geertz brilliantly describes the difference between a wink and a blink. This is similar to the difference between spit and saliva. The difference is social. Your descriptions will be so thick that the reader could tell the difference between a wink and a blink. Your story will be detailed and coherent. Think about it this way; when people tell other people stories about some previous situation in which something was absolutely hilarious, they often have difficulty thickly describing the situation and eventually find themselves saying, "Well, I guess you had to be there....” Strong writing, and storytelling, is rich with thick description that takes the reader there. This is your goal. It isn't that you'll be paying more attention to detail than you've ever done before in your life, it is that you'll be paying more meaningful attention to only the most relevant details than you've ever done before in your life. Be precise. Part II: Analysis Then, you'll apply any concept(s), theory, or theories from our class meetings and/or readings to the story you describe. Pick a relevant sociological concept (e.g., stratification, inequality, power), set of concepts (e.g., class, status, party), theory (e.g., strain theory), or whole theoretical paradigm (e.g., world-systems theory, symbolic Ontically ab Murphy - Introduction to Sociology (SYG 2000) interactionism), and use it/them to make sociological sense of your story. You own the story. It is yours. You lived it. Now, own it in a new way by explaining it with sociology. Keep it simple. Make it remarkably detailed, and make sure you're confident about the accuracy and appropriateness of your application. Applying course content to your story means you will use content from the course in order to examine and analyze your story. Define sociological concepts and/or outline sociological theoretical perspectives relevant to your analysis first. Define these things so clearly and explicitly that someone not enrolled in our class or someone not familiar with sociology could totally understand it. Then, use this sociological content to examine and analyze your story. In other words, explicitly and clearly explain what was sociologically “going on" in the story you previously described by using sociological tools.

Part 1: Data
I was awakened by the loud banging of the front gate that led to the swimming pool. I
was dead sure that I had attended the gate and locked it appropriately as it was part of my
evening routine before I could go and rest at the verandah facing the main field. As a janitor
working in a small institution in town, my duties as the security officer at night were very much
structured and almost every day involved doing the same things that I had done the previous day.
My shift usually began at 6 pm onwards till dawn, when the preceding officer would come to
relieve me the task of keeping Yorkshire Academy safe from intruders and other unwanted
infiltrations. My day started off with locking the classrooms after the students had left the school,
finishing the locking process with the teacher’s staffroom and lastly the gate the led to both the
basketball court and the swimming pool.
However, the gate kept banging against its large iron frame, ...
