Out of class assignment for September 11, 2008:

Watch at least 30 minutes of TV. During that time, try to observe each of the commercials. Look for instances of racism or sexism in the commercials. Choose either qualitative or quantitative approaches.
1) Qualitative – take notes. Try to determine if you see a pattern in the contents of commercials (types of products; how people are depicted, etc).
2) Quantitative. Create an operational definition of racist or sexist behavior you might expect to see in commercials. Count the number of times the behavior occurs.

 COPYING AND DOWNLOADING DOCUMENTS IN CLASS

Note on PowerPoint. You can convert slides to outline format by going to the "Normal" view and clicking outline. You may lose some information from the tables on the Powerpoint presentation though. If you want to save all information, you might need to cut and paste slides with tables into a WORD document.
