Please read the guidance. Be sure to Describe a few characteristics on how UW students fare later in life. Then,
choose another school (any other school). Compare the average income of a poor student and of a rich
student measures of UW and the other school you chose. 

The final policy paper requires you to identify a dimension of stratification that is of interest to you and to find a policy proposal that promises to fix the problem. My topic is about income stratification caused by different genders. 
First, please use some data and evidence to demonstrate the income inequality caused by gender in American society. 
Secondly, The second element will be based on your ability to find policy reports that suggest proposals that promise to fix the problem. You should be able to fully discuss the proposal and what specifically it is trying to fix. (For example, Civil Right Act VII mentions that any employment discrimination based on gender, race, or color is not allowed. Of course, you do not have to choose this law) 
The third element will be to discuss whether the proposal will help with the issue you identified. The criteria you should consider are: 
1. Does the policy attempt to fix the causes of the problem, or to fix the consequences of the problem? 
2. Is the policy cost effective? 
3. Would the policy affect the broadest range of people affected by the issue? 
4. In your opinion, do you think this is the best choice to fix the problem? Why?
Here are some course materials for reference. (You do not need to fully use the materials I gave)

watch this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WTbbSZg4A3k
Define and explain at least three (3) concepts from class, cite your sources as stated below (at least 1/2 page). (Do not discuss any of the three major sociological perspectives here, see #3 and #4 below.)
State the concept and bold it
Define each concept in your own words and italicize it (cite the source as described below)
Tell how the video illustrates them 
remember that many concepts from the course materials are related, so if you talk about crime you might also discuss deviance, social control, socialization, and culture
a given video probably will not illustrate just one thing, look for conceptual linkages to related concepts to include in your explanation
only use concepts from our textbook or other class materials–no outside sources
this is not the place to discuss any theory, 

I am an international student, so please, please write my paper with easy words. The level of the paper must be that of a complete college freshman. thank you!

Papers must include one sociological paradigm. Pick only one of the 3 main theories to apply to your topic (conflict theory, functionalism, or interactionism). Discuss it directly and apply it thoroughly! If your topic is the gender pay gap, and you pick conflict theory, explain how conflict theory would analyze the pay gap.

In order to demonstrate your understanding of the process of socialization and the various topics addressed within the first half of this course, you will write your “sociological autobiography”. The following criteria is expected: 
Criteria #1 – Three Social Aspects’ Influence on Your Self-Identity: Provide a clear analysis and explanation in detail on how three of the six social aspects listed below in bold specifically influenced the development of your self- identity (who you are, your personality, world view) throughout your lifetime so far. 
This criterion is linked to a Learning OutcThree Social Aspects’ Influence on Self Identity It is expected that you provide a clear analysis and explanation in detail on how three of the six social aspects listed below in bold specifically influenced the development of your self- identity, (who you are, your personality, world view) throughout your lifetime so far. 
Your culture,
The types of groups in your life and your roles within
The effects of technology/social media
Your social class status
Your race/ethnicity
Your gender
To complete this criteria well, for each of the three social aspect you choose to address, you should:
Address each of the three social aspects you chose within its own section. Use subtitles above each of their sections in your autobiography. 
Provide specific background information from your own life experience regarding each social aspect.
Then, provide many details about who you are to show how these experiences influenced the shaping of you as a person.
So, in each section after providing your personal information and experiences about a social aspect, ask yourself: Who am I because of this experience involving this specific social aspect? Then, in detail, describe you, your personality, your world views, your behaviors, and etc, to show how each of the social aspects experienced affected the shaping of you.
Extra Credit Opportunity – You can earn up to 3 points for each additional social aspect you address beyond the three required (so you can potentially earn up to a total of 9 points extra credit, if you address all 6 correctly). The same requirements stated above apply when addressing each additional social aspect to earn the full amount of extra credit. 
Criteria #2 – Sociological Concepts and Theories Connections: Since this is your sociological autobiography, and not just your autobiography, this paper is expected to also contain connections to and application of at least three relevant sociological concepts and/or theories throughout the paper.
To do this part well, first review the important concepts or theories from the our textbook chapters we have covered so far (which are presented in bold print in our extextbook) that correctly relate to the ideas from at least three sections in your autobiography.
Make sure to thoroughly describe each sociological concept or theory correctly in your own words when you bring them up in your paper to demonstrate your correct and full understanding of each. Present each concept or theory in bold print.
Then, clearly explain how each concept or theory applies to the various ideas in the parts where they were brought up in your autobiography. 
Support and references should come from at least our textbook. Additional credible academic resources can also be used. 
Make sure to cite and include full references for academic resources used for support. Refer to “In-Text Citation and Full Reference Doc.” if you need assistance with this.
