We’ve had psychology courses on our site for a long time, much to the chagrin of sociology partisans, but the latter got a seat at the table back in January when we introduced SOC101 to everyone.

Today, SOC101: Introduction to Sociology arrives on our iTunes U channel.

A few things set this course apart:

• We have used OpenStax College’s new, free Sociology textbook extensively throughout the course, so you’ll get a unified, consistent voice throughout
• Assessments from the text and activities from the Saylor Foundation are found in every unit, so that you can more easily gauge your progress
• We’ve included optional apps to supplement your study, including an app that can help you prepare for the Introductory Sociology CLEP^® exam

Not on iOS? No worries! You can still learn the art of empirical observation with the original Saylor version!
