Sociology Forums

There are 6 Sociology forums in Chris's blog that I've looked at.

1.The Student Education Forum

This forum is basically more of a asking-and-answering(based on giving opinions) space where people's questions can be solved by others. It's generally talking about Education, such as democratic school, pupil sub cultures, gender gap(i.e. girls versus boys), etc.However there's a topic that attrat me is "What best explain working class underachievement". The top voted reason is 'Material deprivation', which means parents couldnt afford material things like books, computers, etc. for their children; therefore the result of the discussion gives an interesting conclusion, which I think it's quite good for everyone sharing their ideas and thoughts here.

2.The Forum Site

This one is very similar to the first one, but it's talking more about Sociological essay writing or life history, etc. Although it basically talks about everything within the subject Sociology.

3.ScienceCentral.com

It comes up with the title of The Society for Applied Sociology. I've clicked on the Details button and looked through the 4 topics that are shown in another web page, it talks about applied Sociology. This is more likely to be a site for people who wished to know what's in applied Sociology and what is it about, etc.

4.INTJ Forum

This forum, for me, is more formal somehow, although it works based on the same funtion just like the first and second one does.

5. Explore ideas

Does it worth exploring? I dont quite like the layout of the site and maybe it could be clearer with its articles. In fact, I dont really know how to browse the site...

6.The Student Room

This is a suitable forum for students who are studying Sociology. As we can see there are topics like needing help for Sociology essay, different exam board's topic contents, etc; I think it is worth to explore and would get what we wanted to know/learn.
