There is an exact word for this phenomenon, an analemma.
This is an asymmetric figure-of-eight, somewhat skinny, and would be the shape composed if you marked the position of the sun at the same time each day throughout the year.
The actual asymmetry of the figure-of-eight varies with latitude, and reverses completely by the time you travel to the other arctic (or antarctic) circle.

How would the change in the suns path from summer to winter affect the length and position of shadows?
Exactly the same as the change in the sun's position from noon to sunset affects them ... they stay exactly opposite the direction of the sun, but they get longer.
What causes the changes that happen in the suns position in the sky over a year?
the earth is always revolving around the sun therefore changes the suns position here on earth
What is the suns position in the winter?
The Sun is in the same position it always is. The Earth changes, not the sun.
Why do the lengths and directions of a shadow change during the day?

When do the suns rays strike earth at the southernmost and northernmost positions?
The sun's rays strike the Earth at the southernmost position during the December solstice (around December 21st) and at the northernmost position during the June solstice (around June 21st). These are the days when the respective hemispheres experience their longest and shortest days of the year.
