I also coordinate and teach in the El Centro College Mediation and Dispute Resolution Program. Mediation is a process of communication in which persons with a dispute, assisted by a mediator, reach an agreement, understanding, or reconciliation. I love teaching and I especially love teaching sociology here.
Sociology is the study of human social behavior.
It is about how people interact in relationships, groups, communities, and societies. I am interested in how social arrangements foster greater freedom, equality, human dignity, and self-determination. I use a class discussion approach and do some lectures too. I believe in students being active and involved in the course. All El Centro sociology courses emphasize the application of sociological ideas and theories to the real life experiences of students.
