- Purpose: Students who plan to work in the community with people from many different economic, social, racial and ethnic groups need to have an understanding of the effects of differing life experiences on attitudes and values of the individual. The socialization report provides a means to demonstrating the process of socialization in a way that makes it meaningful. It is used in helping the student to assess his or her values and attitudes and the effect of the primary socialization agencies on his/her development. In addition, it allows the student to contrast one’s own experiences with those of others and thereby better understand the diversity of attitudes and values, which exist within a community. You are free to bring into your report any material, which you believe is relevant to your development. You should not, however, feel any obligation to share any information, which you feel is too personal or painful.
- describe your socialization process in detail. You must include or address all 10 areas:
- Begin where you are now. What do you think are some of your values? What are your special interests?
- The Family- nuclear, extended, single parent, brothers and sisters, your position, family occupation, early memories, experiences, feelings, travel, etc.
- The Community- size, location, economy, attitudes, and special people in the neighborhood or community. How did they affect you?
- The School- size, type, teacher who influenced you both positively and/or negatively, your attitude and feelings.
- Religious Organizations- denominations, size, activities, attitudes, your relationship and experiences.
- Peer Group- Who were your friends? What effect do you think they had on you?
- Other Organizations- formal and informal such as Scouts, Camp Fire, 4-H, teams, clubs, gangs, political organizations, armed services or organizations in which you have worked.
- Media- books, television, movies, and videos, which may have influenced you.
- The Era in which you were growing up. Any historical events, figures or trends of importance.
- Other- work, sports, special skills, volunteer work, marriage, children, and any experiences or events, which strongly influenced you. What do you think the future holds for you?
