First blogging

   I'll write about some beginning topics. There are two question. Q1. Why are you taking this class? and Q2. What PRACTICAL SKILLS do you expect to gain from attending it?

  I can answer about these together. When I made my second grade schedule, I saw 일상생활과 사회구조의 이해, the Korean name of this lecture. I thought this lecture will teach me about society's cultures and the result from our everyday habits. In usual, I am interesting about people's behavior. Like why they do that or what is the meaning of someone's behavior. Sometimes I observed passenger's moving and tried to know what happens to them. But it has limit to find the meaning, that I just watched. So I want to learn more my interest by taking this class. For example, nowadays, I watched Korean variety, foreigners discussion, on youtube. There are over 10 nations' panels from Italy, German, China, Japan,,, All of them have very different culture but they seem so friendly. The most interested moment is about Chinese panel. He was so Sinocentrism, and only knew about his country at early of this program. But, as time passes, he showed viewers that he has changing. He came to Korea at least over 20 years old, that means he has strong Chinese culture, but after 3~4 years, he can change by changing of his daily life. Like this, I think for everyone, everyday life and social structure are interaction thing.
  When I knew this lecture will be going on English, I thought it will help to my English skill. But after I took Introduction about this class, I made my decision to focus on sociology, not English skill. As I wrote above, I expect to earn more knowledge about sociology that I can apply at my everyday life. And this class uses Wiki and Blog that useful for 21C internet but I have never used before so I expect to acquire for these platform's using in technical aspect. Exciting!!

+ I wrote this blog post in my blog post on 7th March, not here so I just copied it and blogged here again!!

W4.1 extra credit assignment - Eunjin Jung

Q) the Interaction Assignment. What did you do? What did you learn? Was it fun? A) I analyzed the interactions within the machine learning study I participating in based on Goffman's theory. Through Goffman's "The Presentation of Self In Everyday Life," I learned a new perspective on the world. When I thought that what we go through was a kind of "peformance" and that we were "actors" in the play, our daily lives felt more valuable and dramatic. This was a very funny experience for me. Also, the thought of the presence of “the stage” and “behind the stage” gave me a deeper understanding of the interaction process.

Week1 Assignment & Extra Credit Assignment : Eunjin Jung

2020092188 Eunjin Jung Week 1 Assignment  Why are you taking this class?  I was interested in various issues that usually occur in our society. Not only in South Korea, but also around the world, many people are “interacting”. The interaction leads to tremendous development by cooperating with the community. On the other hand, there are conflicts due to interaction. There are countless results from interactions. Therefore, I was attracted to “interaction”. I take “Sociology of Everyday Life” because I thought I could observe our society more deeply through this class. What PRACTICAL SKILLS do you expect to gain from attending it?  I am interested in 'Data science' that collects and analyzes data. To grow into a great data scientist, I need to learn the technology to analyze data, but I think the most important thing is the “Insight” and “Creativity”. Through this class, I would like to develop "Insight" to find the core of data and "Creativity" to analyze so

Topics in Sociology: Social interaction - Extra Credit Assignment

  What is more important: the actions of individuals or the environment that influences them? I believe that individual behavior is more important than the environment that affects the individual. I think that the environment is created by individuals, institutions are settled, and structured. That's because the environment is the group of individuals and the core is the individual who makes up the environment. Let's look at the following pictures and try to answer:how do those people feel? Why do they act the way they do? What can we learn from answering those questions? It was pictures that I could feel that a person's life was diverse. Every picture shows people's facial expressions, and I wondered what the two monks in India were looking at and what the expression meant. They seem to have seen something they usually haven't seen. By answering these questions, you can understand other people's thoughts, lives, and even society. How are you try to manage your
