SOC 304 ASH Course Material SOC 304 Week 1 DQ 1 Theoretical Frameworks SOC 304 Week 1 DQ 2 The Cohort Effect of Historic Events • Discuss the differences between activity theory and disengagement theory. • Compare and contrast one of the other theories mentioned in the chapter (i.e., modernization, exchange theory, subcultural theory of aging, etc.) to activity theory and disengagement theory. • Discuss how the theory that you selected differs from the activity and disengagement theories of aging. • As your textbook notes, historical events can have different impacts depending upon one’s age cohort. Historical events like the Great Depression, World Wars, and pandemics have had a marked impact on the life course of individuals. How have the social and demographic changes of the last century led to the increased growth and aging of the population?
SOC 304 ASH Course Material SOC 304 Week 2 Assignment The Aging Connection SOC 304 Week 2 DQ 1 Aging Simulation Exercise • The number of older Americans has increased dramatically because older adults are living longer partly due to the improvements in health care technology. However, the question of quality of life has been raised as people live longer and experience more health problems in the midst of rising health care costs and, as the textbook authors note, • What was it like to complete your tasks with the selected impairments? • What were the difficulties that you encountered while completing your tasks? Were any of those difficulties unexpected? • Have your thoughts or attitudes about older adults who have the impairments that you selected changed as a result of this exercise? Why or why not?

Be sure to discuss experiences that would both positively and negatively impact her or his self-esteem. • Discuss how your own self-concept may change as your physical capabilities are decreased. • DQ1: Chapter 7 in your textbook discusses the unique issues that are experienced by older gay men and lesbians in society. Review that chapter and watch “Isn’t Aging the Same for Everybody?” to prepare for this discussion. In addition, review the information related to resources for the aging found at the “LGBT Aging Resources Clearinghouse” for this discussion.
SOC 304 ASH Course Material SOC 304 Week 3 DQ 2 Social Responsibility to the Elderly SOC 304 Week 4 DQ 1 Age Discrimination • Describe the differences and similarities you learned about in terms of the views on social responsibility when caring for a rapidly increasing older population. What are the reasons for these differences between the treatment of the aged in the West as compared to those in the East? Are those reasons more cultural or practical? Explain your answer. • DQ1: The Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA) prohibits discrimination against individuals who are aged 40 and older. This law acknowledges that age discrimination is a violation of an individual’s civil rights. Aging is inevitable and ADEA addresses the needs of older individuals who need access to opportunities for gainful employment.

Caregiving may include taking extended periods of time off from work. The Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) of 1993 addresses this need by providing some employees with up to twelve weeks of unpaid leave per year without fear of losing their jobs. • Compare and contrast the services provided to older individuals under Medicare Part A and Medicare Part B. • Compare and contrast the health care services provided under Medicare versus Medicaid. Be sure to address how each program is funded, what they cover, who qualifies for them, and what role each plays in paying for health care of the elderly population.
