1. New social movements are defined as movements that address values, social identities, and improvements in the quality of life. If you had the ability to mobilize resources to create a new social movement to promote or oppose social change, what social change would your movement address? Why and how? 2. When it comes to our educational system, what do you think comes first- legal reform followed by education and social change? Or is it the reverse- do we first see social change and then the legal changes that respond to that? 3. In what ways is the Internet changing the face of social movements? Consider what happened in Egypt, Libya, Japan, and other places all in the past 2 years (just to name a few!) In just moments images and information was shared via facebook and twitter across the globe, mobilizing millions to action. In what ways do you think our communication technology will continue to shape other types of social movements? 4. There are some good documentaries that highlight this issue. Are there any in particular that you recommend? And if you were to make a film, what would you be sure to cover on this? 5. As of 2011, the United States has never had a female president. Nations throughout the world have had powerful queens and elected leaders. How might you explain the fact that the United States has never elected a woman to be president? 6. In what ways did your parents teach you/show you the gender norms of American culture? Without having to explicitly teach the lessons by verbalizing them, how did they convey the socializing messages about how to act and behave appropriately for your gender? How does this affect the likelihood of seeing prominent female leaders? 7. At what point do you think (or can remember) in your life you became aware of the fact that boys and girls were different and that "society" had different expectations for roles and behaviors? 8. What are some examples of "material culture" and "nonmaterial culture" that were part of your family and part of your upbringing and helped socialize you into norms about gender? ...

Representation of youth Lesson 1
This document discusses collective identity and how youth are represented by the media. It defines collective identity as an individual's sense of belonging to a group that shares traditions and values. Representation is how media texts portray these groups. Identity is complex and constructed through both internal and external influences, including media consumption and social structures. The media plays a role in shaping identities but consumers also shape media messages. Youth identity is represented through stereotypes in media but also through self-representation using media.

Reflection of chapter 4
(The environmental context)
For this reflection, the concept that I have picked is from The Environmental Context in chapter 4. The specific concept that the paper will discuss is the concept of the cultural preference for privacy. This is a concept that explains that different cultures have different preferences for privacy both online and offline. The preference of privacy ranges from solitude to isolation to intimacy with friends or with the family to anonymity and finally reserves. The level of preference that a culture has forms the basis upon which certain policies are set, how people socialize and the basis of deciding how to structure their houses and living spaces.
I have had an experience with this concept especially in regard to the preference for privacy on the online space. Some time back in a group of very diverse individual, a topic was raised about the numerous censoring and limitation that is done on the web in China. In the group, there was one Chinese individual who tried to explain that it works well for them and their country. However, most the other individuals in the group including myself who come from a culture where there is a lot of freedom on the internet where individuals can access anything and post anything, they like were against the whole concept of internet censoring.
We went round and round telling the Chinese individuals how the government was denying them a right to freedom and how much more they were missing on the internet because of being locked out by the government. No matter how much he tried to explain how that worked well for their society, none of us were hearing any of it because we were all convinced that what their government does is wrong. Surprisingly at the end of the whole discussion and debate, the Chinese individual seemed very unmoved by our many opinions and was still okay with this approach the government had decided to take to monitor activities on their web. From this experience, however, I ended up feeling like we had gone on an on to impose our views and criticisms without giving ourselves a chance to listen and understand the point of view of the one person who felt that such policies were okay for their country.
If I knew then what I know now that is the concepts of this course in regard to the fact that different cultures have different preferences of privacy the experience for me would be very different. This is because I would have made contributions to the discussion from a point of a lot more understanding rather than just imposing my opinion like what everyone else did. I would have been able to see and understand the point of view of the Chinese fellow in the group when he said that what they have worked for them and consequently be more accommodative of the fact we all do not have to be the same and that our needs are not their needs.

21st Century Literacy
This document discusses the importance of teaching 21st century literacy skills. It argues that as technology and society change, so does literacy. The 21st century demands wide-ranging abilities like problem solving, managing information, and digital literacy. It notes that many current jobs and technologies did not exist just a few years ago. Students must learn skills to solve unknown future problems. These include skills like critical thinking, communication, and digital literacy using tools like blogs, wikis and podcasting.
1) Examine the difference between material and nonmaterial culture i.docx
1) Examine the difference between material and nonmaterial culture in your world. Identify ten objects that are part of your regular cultural experience. For each, then identify what aspects of nonmaterial culture (values and beliefs) that these objects represent. What has this exercise revealed to you about your culture?
2) Do you feel that feelings of ethnocentricity or xenocentricity are more prevalent in U.S. culture? Why do you believe this? What issues or events might inform this?
3) What do you think of the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis? Do you agree or disagree with it? Cite examples or research to support your point of view.
4) How do you think your culture would exist if there were no such thing as a social “norm”? Do you think chaos would ensue or relative peace could be kept? Explain.
5) Identify several examples of popular culture and describe how they inform larger culture. How prevalent is the effect of these examples in your everyday life?
6) Consider some of the specific issues or concerns of your generation. Are any ideas countercultural? What subcultures have emerged from your generation? How have the issues of your generation expressed themselves culturally? How has your generation made its mark on society’s collective culture?
7) What are some examples of cultural lag that are present in your life? Do you think technology affects culture positively or negatively? Explain.
8) Consider a current social trend that you have witnessed, perhaps situated around family, education, transportation, or finances. For example, many veterans of the Armed Forces, after completing tours of duty in the Middle East, are returning to college rather than entering jobs as veterans as previous generations did. Choose a sociological approach—functionalism, conflict theory, or symbolic interactionism—to describe, explain, and analyze the social issue you choose. Afterward, determine why you chose the approach you did. Does it suit your own way of thinking? Or did it offer the best method to illuminate the social issue?

The document discusses gender roles from a sociological perspective. It defines gender as the socially constructed roles, behaviors, and attributes that a society considers appropriate for men and women, distinguishing it from sex which refers to biological characteristics. It provides the example of past gender roles that prescribed men as breadwinners and women as homemakers. The document also discusses how gender roles impact opportunities in the workplace, with research showing women make up a high percentage of lower-level jobs but far fewer executive roles. It suggests this is partly due to perceptions that women cannot handle demanding work as well as men.

The document discusses rational decision making and behavioral decision theory. It explains that while rationality provides a foundation, heuristics and biases significantly impact individual decisions. Early research was based on the economic approach of predicting rational actors, influenced by Von Neumann and Morgenstern's book on game theory and economic behavior. However, expected utility theory and the normative approach are limited and don't always reliably predict human behavior. Empirical evidence suggests factors like heuristics and biases must be considered.
Chapter 8 social psychology 1
This document discusses social psychology and how it relates to human behavior in social contexts. Social psychology seeks to understand how individual behavior is influenced by other people and the social environment. It examines the factors that affect how people behave in social situations and the conditions under which certain behaviors, actions, feelings and thoughts occur. Social psychologists also study how psychological factors shape people's interactions with others. The document provides examples of topics in social psychology like self-concept, social influence, prejudice and discrimination, aggression, and feelings.
PHILOSOPHICAL ASSESMENT OF YOUTH MORAL QUALITY IN TANZANIA IN SIXTY YEARS OF ...
ABSTRACT : The question of youth moral quality in Tanzania since independence is the main question in this
article. From literature reviewed and observation, it was found that, since independence youth moral quality has
been declining exponentially. That is to say, youth of present modern society of Tanzania manifests a
continuous moral decay compared to youth in traditional society before independence and colonialism. Several
factors have been presented as roots for moral decadence among youth. These factors include poor parenting,
poor example from elders, lack of systematic study of morality, improper use of social media and internet,
superstitious beliefs and conflicting values of the past and present. The author of this article argues that, to
improve moral quality among youth in Tanzania, philosophical study of morality should be introduced from
primary school to tertiary level. This will help to form proper moral reasoning from childhood. In addition to
that, elders and other guardians should change their attitude to become proper example to the youths.
Superstitious beliefs should be abolished and good traditional values of Tanzania should be revived in society.
The author thinks that, good moral quality can be achieved when government and citizens decide to cooperate in
implementing the above suggested solutions. This work is divided in three parts, introduction, discussion and
conclusion.
KEYWORDS: Morality, Youth, Critical thinking, politics and Philosophy of Religion.

Develop a 3-5 page outline of concepts you would like to apply to .docx
Develop a 3-5 page outline of concepts you would like to apply to your own life and identify relevant scholarly sources that will help you with your application of concepts.
As you may have noticed as you have worked through earlier assessments, Sociology is applicable to our everyday lives. We can oftentimes take a sociological concept and use it to explain something that occurs in our own lives. For example, you have learned about norms and how we tend to follow the norms of a society. You can use that to explain how people behave when they are in an elevator. Most people face forward, look up at the numbers, and don't talk.
Many of your experiences can be analyzed using sociological concepts. For your final assessment, Assessment 6, you will complete a Sociology of Me and apply many of the concepts you have learned about in this course to your own life. For Assessment 5, begin to think about which concepts you would like to apply to your own experience, develop an outline, and identify appropriate resources. In order to complete this assessment, you will need to show your understanding of some additional concepts related to social structure, education, and technology/media.
We have learned how a society's culture can influence people. There are other elements in society, however, that also affect our decisions and behavior. Sociological research has found that in addition to culture, social structure and groups also significantly impact many of our individual choices. Our position in the social structure affects our behaviors, attitudes, and ideas. For example, an important element of social structure are groups. We belong to a variety of different groups. Decades of research have documented the impact of group conformity on the individual. Although people tend to often believe that they act as individuals and aren't impacted by others, research has found this is usually not the case. The Milgram experiment in your Resources is a great example. Milgram (1963) examined conformity and obedience and found that people are highly influenced by authority and the demands of conformity, even to the point that we will inflict pain on another person to obey authority.
Sociologists also study education and how it is impacted by a society's culture and structure. The purpose of education is to provide knowledge (facts, skills, cultural norms) to members of a society. In the United States, education teaches us not just skills, but also how to be effective citizens. Education transmits the dominant culture, ensuring that children understand cultural norms and values. Educational attainment impacts life outcomes—it affects our occupation, earnings, work conditions, and health. Thus, education is related to social inequality. We have a tendency to assume that education is an equalizer in the United States, but this is something that is debated by sociologists. Is education equally available to everyone? Studies suggest it is not. Social class can impa.

Sociology 101 Day One 1
This document provides an overview of sociology as an academic discipline.

It also outlines some of the major figures in sociology and topics often analyzed through a sociological lens like gender, class, crime rates and global trends.

The document discusses gender roles from a sociological perspective. It defines gender as the socially constructed roles, behaviors, and attributes that a society considers appropriate for men and women, distinguishing it from sex which refers to biological characteristics. It provides the example of past gender roles that prescribed men as breadwinners and women as homemakers. The document also discusses how gender roles impact opportunities in the workplace, with research showing women make up a high percentage of lower-level jobs but far fewer executive roles. It suggests this is partly due to perceptions that women cannot handle demanding work as well as men.

The document discusses rational decision making and behavioral decision theory. It explains that while rationality provides a foundation, heuristics and biases significantly impact individual decisions. Early research was based on the economic approach of predicting rational actors, influenced by Von Neumann and Morgenstern's book on game theory and economic behavior. However, expected utility theory and the normative approach are limited and don't always reliably predict human behavior. Empirical evidence suggests factors like heuristics and biases must be considered.
Chapter 8 social psychology 1
This document discusses social psychology and how it relates to human behavior in social contexts. Social psychology seeks to understand how individual behavior is influenced by other people and the social environment. It examines the factors that affect how people behave in social situations and the conditions under which certain behaviors, actions, feelings and thoughts occur. Social psychologists also study how psychological factors shape people's interactions with others. The document provides examples of topics in social psychology like self-concept, social influence, prejudice and discrimination, aggression, and feelings.
PHILOSOPHICAL ASSESMENT OF YOUTH MORAL QUALITY IN TANZANIA IN SIXTY YEARS OF ...
ABSTRACT : The question of youth moral quality in Tanzania since independence is the main question in this
article. From literature reviewed and observation, it was found that, since independence youth moral quality has
been declining exponentially. That is to say, youth of present modern society of Tanzania manifests a
continuous moral decay compared to youth in traditional society before independence and colonialism. Several
factors have been presented as roots for moral decadence among youth. These factors include poor parenting,
poor example from elders, lack of systematic study of morality, improper use of social media and internet,
superstitious beliefs and conflicting values of the past and present. The author of this article argues that, to
improve moral quality among youth in Tanzania, philosophical study of morality should be introduced from
primary school to tertiary level. This will help to form proper moral reasoning from childhood. In addition to
that, elders and other guardians should change their attitude to become proper example to the youths.
Superstitious beliefs should be abolished and good traditional values of Tanzania should be revived in society.
The author thinks that, good moral quality can be achieved when government and citizens decide to cooperate in
implementing the above suggested solutions. This work is divided in three parts, introduction, discussion and
conclusion.

As you may have noticed as you have worked through earlier assessments, Sociology is applicable to our everyday lives. We can oftentimes take a sociological concept and use it to explain something that occurs in our own lives. For example, you have learned about norms and how we tend to follow the norms of a society. You can use that to explain how people behave when they are in an elevator. Most people face forward, look up at the numbers, and don't talk.
Many of your experiences can be analyzed using sociological concepts. For your final assessment, Assessment 6, you will complete a Sociology of Me and apply many of the concepts you have learned about in this course to your own life. For Assessment 5, begin to think about which concepts you would like to apply to your own experience, develop an outline, and identify appropriate resources. In order to complete this assessment, you will need to show your understanding of some additional concepts related to social structure, education, and technology/media.
We have learned how a society's culture can influence people. There are other elements in society, however, that also affect our decisions and behavior. Sociological research has found that in addition to culture, social structure and groups also significantly impact many of our individual choices. Our position in the social structure affects our behaviors, attitudes, and ideas. For example, an important element of social structure are groups. We belong to a variety of different groups. Decades of research have documented the impact of group conformity on the individual.

What Continuous Improvement Is (and How to Use It)
Ben Mulholland
April 6, 2018
Business Processes, Processes, Productivity
No process is perfect; there’s always room to improve. Unfortunately, many teams have no way to identify, test, and deploy the changes they make, meaning each tweak is a roll of the dice.
The savings can be massive, but you need a continuous improvement program to make sure that the changes you make won’t make your operations a whole lot harder.
“1 in 10 improvements save money… [each saving, on average,] $31,043 in its first year of implementation.
1 in 4 improvements save time… [each saving, on average,] 270 hours in its first year of implementation.” – KaiNexus, The ROI of Continuous Improvement
Most successful changes will also make your employee’s jobs easier (or more pleasant) to perform. You’ll be saving time and money, but you’ll also be getting far better value out of your current efforts and operations.
However, I’m getting ahead of myself. Let’s start from the top.What is continuous improvement?
Ever corrected a spelling mistake in your processes or manuals? How about adding a new step to qualify a task that wasn’t recorded before? What about updating your method to take advantage of better tools or software?
All of these and more are examples of continuous improvement.
Continuous improvement is a method to make sure that your processes, methods, and practices are as efficient, accurate, and effective as possible. This is done (surprise, surprise) by periodically examining and improving your processes to smash bottlenecks, use the best software, and take advantage of the most efficient methods.
If you’ve ever heard of lean, kaizen, Six Sigma, or DMAIC then this will sound familiar, as continuous improvement is based on similar principles and forms a key part of both of those practices. This is because the primary objective of any changes is to reduce waste and streamline your work.
While there are many different methods for achieving continuous improvement (such as process innovation and the Deming cycle), all can be classified into one of two groups; incremental or breakthrough improvements.
Incremental vs breakthrough improvements
Continuous improvement is largely practiced using two disciplines; incremental and breakthrough improvements. These can be used interchangeably, but the best way to deploy a thorough continuous improvement program is to combine the two. By doing this you can quickly deal with smaller issues while giving larger items the care and attention they deserve.Incremental continuous improvement
Incremental continuous improvement is all about making small tweaks to a process, method, or practice to improve it as problems are found. This usually costs less and can be done much faster than using the breakthrough method, but there are a few risks and downsides to doing so.
Imagine that you’re working through a regular document.

Wound healing PPT
This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.
LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems
9
Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

- 1. 1. New social movements are defined as movements that address values, social identities, and improvements in the quality of life. If you had the ability to mobilize resources to create a new social movement to promote or oppose social change, what social change would your movement address? Why and how? 2. When it comes to our educational system, what do you think comes first- legal reform followed by education and social change? Or is it the reverse- do we first see social change and then the legal changes that respond to that? 3. In what ways is the Internet changing the face of social movements? Consider what happened in Egypt, Libya, Japan, and other places all in the past 2 years (just to name a few!) In just moments images and information was shared via facebook and twitter across the globe, mobilizing millions to action. In what ways do you think our communication technology will continue to shape other types of social movements? 4. There are some good documentaries that highlight this issue. Are there any in particular that you recommend? And if you were to make a film, what would you be sure to cover on this? 5. As of 2011, the United States has never had a female president. Nations throughout the world have had powerful queens and elected leaders. How might you explain the fact that the United States has never elected a woman to be president? 6. In what ways did your parents teach you/show you the gender norms of American culture? Without having to explicitly teach the lessons by verbalizing them, how did they convey the socializing messages about how to act and behave appropriately for your gender? How does this affect the likelihood of seeing prominent female leaders? 7. At what point do you think (or can remember) in your life you became aware of the fact that boys and girls were different
- 2. and that "society" had different expectations for roles and behaviors? 8. What are some examples of "material culture" and "nonmaterial culture" that were part of your family and part of your upbringing and helped socialize you into norms about gender?
