This document discusses different types of societies and digital citizenship. It begins by outlining the learning objectives, which are to identify different types of societies, differentiate their qualities, explain digital and post-industrial societies, and identify the effects of being part of a digital society. It then defines various types of historic societies, including tribal, feudal, industrial, and post-industrial societies. Finally, it discusses the concepts of digital society, digital citizenship, and how technology is shaping human interactions and relationships by allowing for more disembodied and virtual connections.

2. After going through this module, you are
expected to:
1. identify the different types of society;
2. differentiate their qualities;
3. explain digital society and digital citizenship;
4. identify the effects of being a member of
digital society.

6. What is a
society?

7. Society may be defined as the
permanent union of men who are
united by modes of behavior that
are demanded by some common
end, value, or interest. Analyzed
semantically, the term denotes a
union of one kind or another.
(Philosophical Analysis)

8. People who live in a definable
community and who share a
culture. (Strayer, 2015)

9. “Society is a number of like-minded
individuals who know and enjoy their
like-mindedness and are therefore
able to work together for common
ends.”
(Giddings)

10. “Society is the general term for
persons living in social relations.”
(Kimbal Young)

11. “Society is the complex of organized
associations and institutions within
the community.”
(George Douglas Howard Cole)

12. A largely self-sufficient community arising
because of the bare necessities of life and
continuing for the sake of a good life,
common to all its members.
(Aristotle)

13. The ideal society is one in which the
citizens live happy lives. Further, they do
so not by making their main aim money,
or a pleasant life, or power, as is the case
with most people in our societies.
(Plato)

14. 7 elements of society?
• Social Organization.
• Language.
• Customs and Traditions.
• Religion.
• Arts and Literature.
• Forms of Government.
• Economic Systems.

15. CATEGORIES OF SOCIETY
Pre-Industrial Societies
Industrial Society
Post Industrial Society

16. Pre-Industrial Societies
Tribal Society
Feudal Society

17. Tribal Society
“Tribe” - a group of peoples living
in a primitive setting under a
leader or chief

18. Tribal Society
“preliterate
society”
“primitive
society”
or

19. 4. language systems of tribes are
unwritten which provides a narrow
extent of communication
5. show a self-sustaining structure
which is absent in the modern society

20. Feudal Society
Feudalism refers to the
political, and social system that
prevailed in Europe from about
ninth to the fifteenth century

21. Due to the lack of effective
centralized government during
this period, kings and lords
granted land and provided
protection to lesser nobles known
as vassals.

22. In return, these vassals swore oaths of
loyalty and military service to their
lords. Peasants known as serfs were
bound to the land and were subject to
the will of their lords.

23. INDUSTRIA
L
SOCIETY

24. One which uses advance technology to
drive a masssive production industry that
will support a large
population. The objective of an industrial
economy is the fast and efficient
manufacturing of standardized products.

25. Post Industrial
Society

26. Post Industrial Society is marked by a progress
from a manufacturing-based to a service-based
economy. Post industrialization is most evident in
countries and regions that were among the first
to experience the Industrial Revolution, such as
the United States, western Europe, and Japan.

27. Daniel Bell, an American sociologist, first
coined the term ‘post-industrial’ in 1973 in
his book “The Coming of Post-Industrial
Society: A Venture in Social Forecasting,”
which describes several features of this
kind of society.

28. Characteristics of a
Post Industrial
Society

29. 1.a shift from the production of goods to the
production of services
2.replacement of manual laborers with technical
and professional workers
3.the replacement of practical knowledge with
theoretical knowledge
4.focusing to the theoretical and ethical
implications of new technologies,

30. 5. the development of recent scientific disciplines—that
involve new forms of information technology, cybernetics,
or artificial intelligence—to evaluate the theoretical and
ethical implications of new technologies.
6. an emphasis on the university and polytechnic institutes
which produce graduates who innovate and lead the new
technologies contributing to a postindustrial society.
7. the changing values and norms which reflects the
influences on the society

31. DIGITAL SOCIETY
AND THE
INFORMATION AGE

32.  have wildly affected our interactions and
activity in the 21st century
have significantly changed our way of
learning, working and socializing
we rely with the use of modern technology
paved many opportunities reaching bigger
audiences

33.  have access to sources and technologies which
enables people to connect with activities whether
economic, social, political, or educational
people can manipulate the phasing of learning (e.g.
free sources) or businesses (e.g. online selling)
without a large sum of money used as a capital and
can share ideas and perspectives to the international
audiences as they connect beyond

34. A digital society is a modern, progressive
society formed as a result of the adoption and
integration of Information and Communication
Technologies (ICT) at home, work, education
and recreation and supported by advanced
telecommunications and connectivity systems
and solutions.

35. Digital
Citizenship

36. Digital Citizenship is the ability
to navigate our digital
a way that is safe and responsible
to actively and respectfully engage
these spaces.

37. A digital citizen is a person who is
knowledgeable and responsible enough to
effectively use different social platforms in
the internet and often engage in useful
topics and issues that will help build a
better society, politics and government.

38. Being
Digital Citizens
Isin and Rupert (2015)
(2015)

39. This book suggests that if we constitute ourselves
as digital citizens, we
become subjects of power in cyberspace. We
enact ourselves on
the internet, considering and understanding the
opportunities presented by
this medium, such as anonymity, communication,
and influence.

40. THE
DISEMBODIED
SUBJECT

41. Disembodied
lacking of body
freed from the body
lacking in substance,
or any firm relation to

42. Disembodied subject
(in technological society) does not mean that
human person is no longer living with their
bodies, rather, in a manner of speaking, people
are slowly putting aside their bodies in relating
with others because the technological society
offers an alternative which apparently resolves
human of an embodied subject.

43.  Face_x0002_to-face interaction is too stressful and
difficult while virtual interactions are relatively
easier
 people prefer communicating using virtual world,
even if the person involved is someone seen on a
regular basis
 Everyone is glued to their devices – cellphones,
tablets, laptops, or any device and they are all
probably interacting with their virtual societies

44. EXAMPLE OF
DISEMBODIED
HUMAN
RELATIONSHIPS

45. taking selfies
virtual meetings
video calling
online educational
learning

46. Learning Task: Using an
overlapping Venn diagram, learners must
analyze
all the differences and similarities of the
major historic societies. Use the
rubrics as guide for answering.
