People with the sociological imagination can connect their personal experiences to broader social issues and historical contexts. This ability allows them to see how individual choices and behaviors are influenced by societal structures, norms, and historical developments. By understanding these connections, individuals can gain a deeper insight into their own lives and the world around them.
Intelligence is not determined by location. People from cities may have greater access to educational and career opportunities, which could influence their level of knowledge or skills in certain areas. However, individuals from rural areas can also possess unique skills and knowledge that may not be as prevalent in urban settings.
A career interest survey is a tool used to help individuals identify their interests, values, and preferences related to potential career paths. It typically involves answering questions about work activities, skills, and personal preferences to help guide individuals toward suitable career options that align with their interests. These surveys can be helpful for those who are exploring different career paths or considering a career change.
After class lectures online or via telecourse I often am asked the question of how to do learn more about sociology online. Although, search engines can be a wonderful tool for random exploration, here are some websites worth your while: 1. The American Sociological Association (ASA) website has a section for students at all levels (http://www.asanet.org/apap/student.html). The ASA website also has the ASA booklet on careers in sociology at (http://www.asanet.org/student/career/homepage.html). Cut and Paste URL into your browser window. 2. If the sociological theorists seem too imposing, take a look at the Dead Sociologists' Society (http://www2.pfeiffer.edu/~lridener/dss/deadsoc.html). Larry Ridener founded the site after seeing the 1989 Robin Williams movie Dead Poets Society. As the Williams character tried to get his students interested in poetry, Ridener wanted his students interested in sociological ideas. The site has excellent links on a wide variety of sociology topics. 3. Sociology shows us that decisions that seem highly personal and individual (like the decision to commit suicide) fall into patterns. Another such decision is what to name a baby. You can see these patterns and check your own name at the U.S. Census website (http://www.ssa.gov/OACT/babynames/). Cut and Paste URL into your browser window. 4. Sociology Journals: DMOZ.org the Open Directory Project purchased by GOOGLE has a pretty good list of academic and public sociology journals that is online accessible. http://www.dmoz.org/Science/Social_Sciences/Sociology/Journals/ Cut and Paste URL into your browser window. 5.

Fashion and runway models tend to have shorter career spans, usually between 2-5 years in general. Of course there are exceptions to the rule but in general this type of modeling doesn't promote longevity unless you get lucky and end up with supermodel status.Commercial/print models and lifestyle models have longer career spans because this field has a high demand for models for all ages.Male models also tend to have longer career spans than female models because they become more in demand as they get older, whereas female modeling is all about youth.
