In 2001, the governing council of the American Sociological Association (ASA) appointed Professor Caroline Persell of New York University to launch a task force with the goal of creating an advanced high school sociology curriculum that would also be a model for introductory sociology courses in colleges and universities. The principle goal of the task force was to design a college-level sociology course that would motivate students' interest and help them to acquire scientific knowledge that would better prepare them for college and pursuits in all scientific disciplines, increase their interest in postsecondary education, and help them in their future studies and work experiences, with the long-term goal of creating individual and societal benefits. This study examines the learning outcomes of a class of undergraduate students at Michigan State University who took this course in spring 2006. (Contains 4 tables and 7 footnotes.)
