Paradigms, raw facts, and the macro-micro divide frame a fifteen-question companion sheet for episode 2 of Crash Course Sociology, headed with a "Link to Episode" line and the direction to use the video linked above to answer the questions. The sequence opens with what a paradigm is and why sociologists need assumptions to interpret raw facts such as an unemployment rate, moves to the difference between macro questions about large-scale structures and micro questions about interaction between individuals, then works through the three paradigms named in the episode: structural functionalism with its manifest and latent functions and social dysfunction, conflict theory and Karl Marx's class conflict, and symbolic interactionism. Every numbered question carries a lettered blank for the written response, and a completed key ships alongside in Word and PDF.
