For years now I've tried to put my life together, trying to combine all the things I've done over the last 62 years. The other day as I was listing things I've done and been i.e a political science and educaton major with degrees in both and 3o plus years as an environmental consultant, I thought let's go back to my education degree which is social science education. Hum, what does that encompass. I searched for the aspects or elements of social studies. The five aspects of social studies include:
History
Geography
Social Culture
Economy
Politics
Ok so I do love history and as I've increased my non-fiction reading over the last few months I find I want to increase it even more!
Geography -this includes looking at the world geo-spatially which I do all the time at work as I create GIS maps for Environmental reports! It can also include analysis of Eco-systems,hum,I delineate wetlands! And have studied threatened and endangered species of New Jersey!
So let's move on social culture would include my books and music,religion and just about everything else!
The economy we know "tax the rich"! And finally politics which goes back to my political science major!
So social studies allows me to write about All the things I love! So on this site I want to blog about all of the above to varying degrees I will continue with Me, Myself,Music and Mysteries and cross post where appropriate!
Um.... can you say "redundant?"
ReplyDeletesorry about that! I started typing the post on the Iphone and didn't proof read it before posting!
