Sociology faculty create video content for Introduction to Sociology

This video is an example of the learning supplements that are being created for Introduction to Sociology. Our sociology faculty - Joseph Comeau, Jamie MacLennan, and Debaleena Ghosh - are collaborating, with each faculty member speaking on different topics. Bod Slenker from Information and Instructional Technology is assisting with video production.

Dr. Comeau and sociology faculty develop video support for open textbooks

Dr. Joseph Comeau is working with Jamie MacLennan and Debaleena Ghosh on an Affordable Learning Georgia grant. The aim is making high quality video clips that will support the free OpenStax Introduction to Sociology textbook. The lobby area has been turned into a temporary movie studio with the help of Bob Slenker. Our department is actively trying to keep the cost of textbooks down.
