I’m studying for my Sociology class and need an explanation.

Directions

The discussion groups serve as the main form of communication and collective learning in this course. You have been assigned to a discussion group and you will learn together throughout the course. The purpose of the boards is to respond and ask questions about the readings with your classmates. If you quote the readings, please use proper citation.

After reading the required selections, please post a response and a follow-up question to the group thread by Wednesday 11:59 pm CT. You will also need to respond to two classmates’ questions/post by Sunday 11:59 pm CT.

Discussion Question:

1. Is teenage pregnancy a social problem? How does this topic reflect the social construction of problems? How does social location impact if you view this as a social problem?
2. Explain why media representation of social problems is an important issue. What is an example of a problematic representation?
