ANALYSIS:
12. Social sciences are a group of academic
disciplines dedicated to examining society.
What is Social Science?
13. This branch of science studies
how people interact with each
other, behave, develop as a
culture, and influence the world.
14. Understanding Social Sciences
Social sciences help
to explain how
society works,
exploring everything
from the triggers
of economic
growth and causes
of unemployment to
what makes people
happy.
15. Understanding Social Sciences
This information is
vital and can be
used for many
purposes. Among
other things, it
helps to shape
corporate
strategies and
government
policies.
16. Social science as a field of study is
separate from the natural sciences,
which cover topics such as physics,
biology, and chemistry.
17. Social science examines the
relationships between individuals
and societies, as well as the
development and operation of
societies, rather than studying the
physical world.
21. History is also
sometimes regarded as
a social science,
although many
historians often
consider the subject to
share closer links to the
humanities.
22. Both humanities and social sciences study
human beings. What separates them is
technique: humanities are viewed as more
philosophical and less scientific. Law, too,
has some ties to social sciences, as does
geography.
23. History of Social Sciences
The origins of social sciences can
be traced back to the ancient
Greeks.
24. The lives they led, and their
early studies into human
nature, the state, and
mortality, helped to shape
Western civilization.
26. Social science as an academic field of
study developed out of the Age of
Enlightenment (or the Age of Reason),
which flourished through much of the
18th century in Europe.
27. Adam Smith, Voltaire, Jean-Jacques
Rousseau, Denis Diderot, Immanuel
Kant, and David Hume were among the
big intellectuals at the time who laid the
foundations for the study of social
sciences in the Western World.
28. Individuals began to take a more
disciplined approach to quantify
their observations of society, and
over time, similar aspects of society,
such as linguistics and psychology,
were separated into unique fields of
study.
29. The history of the social
sciences has origin in the common
stock of Western philosophy and
shares various precursors, but began
most intentionally in the early 19th
century with the positivist philosophy of
science.
30. Since the mid-20th century, the
term "social science" has come
to refer more generally, not just
to sociology, but to all those
disciplines which analyse society
and culture;
from anthropology to linguistics t
o media studies.
32. NATURAL SCIENCE AND HUMANITIES
Social Science is different
from Natural Science and
Humanities because the
primary interest lies in
predicting and explaining
human behavior.
33. NATURAL SCIENCE
Aims to predict all natural
phenomena and its studies
are based on experimentally
controlled condition of
material entities.
34. HUMANITIES
Seeks to understand “human
reactions to events and the
meanings humans impose on
experience as a function of
culture, historical era, and
life history.”
35. Using Scientific Method
the three fields units
but it is more
commonly use in the
social science and
natural science than
36. Scientific Method is a
systematic and logical
approach in acquiring
and explaining
knowledge.
37. It involves a step by
step procedure of
identifying the
problem, formulating
and hypothesis by
gathering and analyzing
38. It is important in social
science since it is the
instrument by which issues
and problems are examined
and recommendations fro
policy making are offered
depending on the findings of
the study conducted.
39. APPLICATION
Using paper and pen:
1. How does social science related to
society?
2. What are the roles of social science
in the society?
3. fill out a concept map showing
the definition of social science
as a study of society.
