| dc.description.abstract | In the summer of 1997, J.K. Rowling reintroduced the world to the love of reading. The Harry Potter series sparked wonderment and curiosity in the minds of adolescents everywhere. But what those young readers did not realize is that Rowling created a world not so different from our own. This magical world held societies with their own set of customs, belief systems, government systems, familial bases, and social issues, many of which reflect those of the real world. Through merging the magical world of Harry Potter and the essential or core concepts taught in high school sociology, Sociology Through Harry Potter applies literature-based instruction to a project-based curriculum with the goal of enhancing existing sociology curricula. | en_US |
