This lesson is connected to but can be used independently of "Using Big Data to Identify and Understand Educational Inequality in America (1)" Students will develop CS skills and behaviors including but not limited to: learning what an API is, learning how to access and utilize data on an API, and developing their R coding skills and knowledge. Students will also learn basic, but important, sociological principles such as how poverty is related to educational opportunities in America (and how this relationship varies between and among states). Although prior knowledge of CS and sociology is helpful, neither is necessary for student (or instructor) success on this project. Three instructional hours.

The focus of this course will be on individual development in context from infancy into late childhood. At a general level, we will examine the genetic and biological contributions to individual development, the social contextual contributions, and the interaction between these two general sets of variables. Our discussions will focus on several domains of human development including physical, cognitive, and socioemotional development. In our examination of these topics, we will view child development as a phenomenon that occurs within a cultural context influenced by race, sex, sexual orientation, and social class. This course takes an interdisciplinary approach to familiarize students with history, theory, policy, and research on child development beyond mainstream psychology. Together, students and the instructor will explore how different factors impact child developmental outcomes through selected readings, classroom discussions, activities, and various media (e.g. Images, Ted Talks, YouTube). There is no textbook for this course. Instead, students will read journal articles, chapters from selected books, or online news articles which copies of will be provided. Students are encouraged to bring in, suggest, or post additional images, media, readings, comments, questions, concerns, or other materials to enhance the course.

The purpose of this course is to help the student acquire a greater degree of economic literacy to better understand the functioning of our social system. Economics is a technical discipline with its own specialized vocabulary and methodology and is also a subject where informed positions widely diverge. The student is expected to understand as well as to analyze complex social and economic settings. This course starts from how supply and demand cause prices changes leading different market equilibrium. We will examine how market economies are efficient, and the way governments can make our economy less or more efficient. We will delve behind the supply curve to see how firms choose their production levels to maximize profits, culminating in the model of perfect competition. We will look at market failures such as imperfect competition (monopoly and oligopoly) and externalities.
