Course syllabus
The course aims to provide some theoretical and practical tools to investigate cultural processes in daily life. The program is divided into two directions. In a first part, a path is proposed that starts from the notion of culture and focuses on its embodiment, on the formation of classification categories, on the work of common sense, on the social construction of tastes, hierarchies, symbolic borders, allowing to study culture in action in different areas of social life. In the second part, through a reference to classical and contemporary studies, we will focus on temporal, spatial and bodily practices, touching on topics such as the construction of borders, the sense of living, the relationship between social and subjective times, collective memory , the social meaning of age and generations, body techniques, the social processes that regulate birth and death, the relationship with sexuality and the construction of the genre, making use of examples taken from films and novels and dynamics of specific social fields such as, for example, the artistic, leisure, consumption sectors. In summary, we will try to read sociologically the different connotations that the concept of culture assumes and its links with the multiple spheres of everyday reality.
Prerequisites for admission
No special prerequisites are needed, but it helps to be familiar with history and philosophy.
Teaching methods
The teaching methods will not be only the traditional ones of the frontal lesson, as the course will see some moments of deepening and discussion starting from the texts read beforehand (according to a model of flipped classroom), as well as a small empirical research exercise.

Assessment methods and Criteria
For attending students, the verification of the contents learned is divided into a series of intermediate tests carried out during the course, in an individual final paper and, possibly, only if requested by the teacher or student, in a final oral exam.
Attendees will be offered three intermediate tests and an individual final work, applying the course content.
The intermediate tests will consist of closed-ended tests, to verify the contents of readings and lessons.
The individual work will consist of a short paper, including a part of empirical research, in which you will be asked to apply the concepts dealt with in class to your daily life experience. The evaluation of the paper will take into account the degree of understanding and reworking of the topics addressed and the commitment to research.
For attending students, the final grade is therefore an overall assessment of the various ongoing tests structured as follows: three intermediate tests, lasting about 20 minutes each, based on batteries of closed-ended questions, to be held in the computer room on predefined dates ; an individual final work (the specifics will be given during the course), including an empirical part of analysis, developed starting from the lessons and the texts in the program. This individual work must be posted on Ariel in your personal space in the Portfolio, 15 days before the appeal in which you wish to participate; finally, if the teacher deems it appropriate, the student must carry out an oral exam as a further individual final test.
The mark will be the result of a weighting of the works and not of an arithmetic average of the individual tests (50% overall test result, 45% individual final test, 5% assessment of participation in the discussions on the texts and the overall performance of the tests - for example, progressive improvement, or progressive deterioration). To take the exam by attending students, it will be necessary to obtain sufficiency in at least two of the three intermediate tests
N.B. The exam for attending students is sustainable only during the first two appeals of January / February. The 3-credit exam can be taken, but the program must be agreed with the teacher.
For non-attending students, the exam will consist of a two-part written test.
The first part, consisting of a series of closed-ended questions on all the texts and essays in the program, is to be considered preparatory to the evaluation of the rest of the test: therefore, a negative evaluation on this part will involve not passing the exam. The time available for this test will be 45 minutes and the exam will take place in the computerized classrooms, with an immediate result at the end of the test.
The second part of the exam will consist of two open questions to be carried out in an hour and a half, always in the computerized classroom. A first question will require articulating a reflection by linking together the concepts and themes addressed in the texts and essays in the program, starting from a quote obtained from them. A second question will ask to apply the studied concepts to an input that can be linked to the experience of daily life, or to a newspaper article, a video, etc. The final mark will consist of 20% of the result of the written question with closed questions, 40% of the answer to the first open question and 40% of the answer for the second.

This individual work must be posted on Ariel in your personal space in the Portfolio, 15 days before the appeal in which you wish to participate; finally, if the teacher deems it appropriate, the student must carry out an oral exam as a further individual final test.
