The document discusses the concept of deviance and provides definitions. It states that deviance is defined as an absence of conformity to social norms. Not all deviant behaviors are illegal or harmful, as they can range from minor infractions to serious crimes. The degree and perception of deviance depends on a society's reactions and how much a behavior violates established cultural norms and expectations. Societies and their subcultures influence what is considered deviant or acceptable. Poverty and social pressures can also contribute to behaviors becoming normalized or driven underground.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

How Race, Age and Gender Shape Attitudes Towards Mental HealthThinkNow
Mental health has been in the news quite a bit lately. Dozens of U.S. states are currently suing Meta for contributing to the youth mental health crisis by inserting addictive features into their products, while the U.S. Surgeon General is touring the nation to bring awareness to the growing epidemic of loneliness and isolation. The country has endured periods of low national morale, such as in the 1970s when high inflation and the energy crisis worsened public sentiment following the Vietnam War. The current mood, however, feels different. Gallup recently reported that national mental health is at an all-time low, with few bright spots to lift spirits.
To better understand how Americans are feeling and their attitudes towards mental health in general, ThinkNow conducted a nationally representative quantitative survey of 1,500 respondents and found some interesting differences among ethnic, age and gender groups.
Technology
For example, 52% agree that technology and social media have a negative impact on mental health, but when broken out by race, 61% of Whites felt technology had a negative effect, and only 48% of Hispanics thought it did.
While technology has helped us keep in touch with friends and family in faraway places, it appears to have degraded our ability to connect in person. Staying connected online is a double-edged sword since the same news feed that brings us pictures of the grandkids and fluffy kittens also feeds us news about the wars in Israel and Ukraine, the dysfunction in Washington, the latest mass shooting and the climate crisis.
Hispanics may have a built-in defense against the isolation technology breeds, owing to their large, multigenerational households, strong social support systems, and tendency to use social media to stay connected with relatives abroad.
Age and Gender
When asked how individuals rate their mental health, men rate it higher than women by 11 percentage points, and Baby Boomers rank it highest at 83%, saying it’s good or excellent vs. 57% of Gen Z saying the same.
Gen Z spends the most amount of time on social media, so the notion that social media negatively affects mental health appears to be correlated. Unfortunately, Gen Z is also the generation that’s least comfortable discussing mental health concerns with healthcare professionals. Only 40% of them state they’re comfortable discussing their issues with a professional compared to 60% of Millennials and 65% of Boomers.
Race Affects Attitudes
As seen in previous research conducted by ThinkNow, Asian Americans lag other groups when it comes to awareness of mental health issues. Twenty-four percent of Asian Americans believe that having a mental health issue is a sign of weakness compared to the 16% average for all groups. Asians are also considerably less likely to be aware of mental health services in their communities (42% vs. 55%) and most likely to seek out information on social media (51% vs. 35%).

Deviance Definition Essay
1. Deviance Definition Essay
Quit often in our day–to–day lives we hear the word "deviance", but never truly know the concepts behind it. ... An important sociological concept
states that people conform, or perform to societal expectation or norms (Brown, 1965).The term deviance can be defined as the absence of
conformity. Deviant acts are acts that violate the social norm. All deviant acts are mala prohibited or evil because laws prohibit it. (Anderson 2014)
For example, speeding on your way to work would be considered deviant because it is against the law, not only because it is looked down upon and
goes against societies set of norms. Deviant acts can vary by time, place, content, and person (Anderson 2014). This means that something that is

2. What is Deviance? Essay
Deviance can be defined as an absence of conformity to the social norm. Not all deviant behavior is necessarily illegal or harmful to individuals,
these behaviors can range from standing in another's personal space to murdering another individual. In some cases, it can be looked upon as a
positive change or a unique and favorable act. Although, considered deviant because it is not the social norm, it still can have a very positive social
aspect or lead to social change. Culture and the societies within these cultures have a significant impact on what is considered deviant and what is
acceptable or even lawful behavior. The degree of deviance is measured by society's reaction towards the action and the lawful sanctions that may take

Abnormal behavior in one society appears normal in the other society (Nairne, 426). Deviance is weighed by the society's reactions to the
particular behavior, also it is measured by the society's way of life so that it defines the unwelcoming behavior. It ignores the social order and some
organizations believe, the reality in society. The violation of the social norm can be meant to be utilized as a way of sustaining power, position, and
influence of a specific group of people or organizations. In most cultures, the idea of deviance is based on the values, deeds, and beliefs that are
achieved through interaction among people that have influence in the society and from the understanding that culture is passed on from member to
member. Societies are also comprised of the subculture and the culture itself. The huge cultural forces depict what deeds are appreciated and which are
unaccepted or discouraged. On the other hand, the subculture in a certain setting creates a resistance to the dominating culture and in doing so, they
give a hand in the behavior that violates the large culture social norms. Therefore, the deviation from the cultural norms can be attributed to the social
classes and financial classes. For example, prostitution in regions of the developing world is deviant in most cultures, however poverty pressure
pushes young girls toward it for survival. Another reason deviant people take a

Deviant Behavior
Deviant behavior refers to behavior that does not conform to norms, does not meet the expectations of a group of a society as a whole. After birth,
children begin to experience situations with others. They are taught what he or she should and should not do, what is good or bad and what is right or
wrong. Learning habits that conform to the customs and traditions of the groups into which the child is born develops a system of values. These values
provide justification and motivation or for wanting to refrain from behavior that is disapproved.

These common stereotypes about drug users in turn helped create new societal norms. Drug use leads society to believe only certain (bad) people
involve themselves with drugs and the only to way to handle this problem is to make the public aware. Hence, creating new laws and stricter
enforcement only helps to inform the public of how serious a problem drug use is and in turn, is labeled as deviant behavior.
Now knowing why society believes illicit drug use is considered a deviant act, what type of theories can be best used to evaluate them? First, one has
to know a brief explanation of each theory and the reasoning behind each theory. These theories care designed to address a problem area and gain
insight into why these problems exist.
There are many different types of theories, but this paper will focus on three. The first being the labeling theory. The second being the conflict theory
and the last being the learning theory. All these theories will be explained along with what part of each theory will be evaluated. The labeling theory
starts off with the basic assumption that deviance is relative too social or group norms and not inherently characteristic of certain human acts or
people. Becker states, "Social groups create deviance by making the rules whose infraction constitutes deviance. Deviance is not a quality of the act the
person commits, but rather a consequence of the application by others of rules and

This common belief holds that people using drugs necessarily have personal problems and lack social skills, which then in turn, threatens
personal health and morality to societies well being. Also, medically, reference to elicit drug use is considered drug abuse. This portrays an image
that is unrealistic. It tells society that drugs are a huge problem and that anyone who is associated with drugs has a problem. These common
stereotypes about drug users in turn helped create new societal norms. Drug use leads society to believe only certain (bad) people involve

5. Deviant Behavior
Deviance is a functional element of society because it adjusts people to social change. It is as if though deviance is automatically transmitted to
others. For example when violating rules such as not using a car seat, forgetting to put on the seat belt, or driving above speed limit. We get used to
these violations because we see them in our daily basis. Deviant acts start to become more acceptable to society and that's how these things don't seem
unusual anymore to the public. It is deviant behavior that shows us what is right from wrong and determines who we choose to be. Something that is
still considered to be unacceptable or criminal is human trafficking. Human trafficking in many cases involves violence, exploitation, and sexual assault.

Deviance is defined as the recognized violation of cultural norms. This is an extremely broad definition, and depending on who is explaining it, the
above definition can mean a variety of different things. Critically examine the theory of deviance with reference to young people and their membership
in deviant subcultures or gangs. Deviance is associated with young people today and is rapidly on the increase within the street and school
environment. Young deviants are engaging in gang membership and subcultures with a means of social belonging, social interest and ethnic identity.
There are several sociological and subcultural theories which deem to explain deviance. Some of the theories are functionalist pretentious that criminal

The Chicago school on gangs urbanized the school into a set of theories arguing that certain groups or subcultures in society have values and attitudes
that contribute to crime and deviance. The key focus is on juvenile delinquency. Juvenile delinquency refers to criminal acts performed by juveniles, a
juvenile is a young person. Theorists deem that if this precedent of criminal behaviour can be understood and controlled, it will break the transition
from teenage offender into habitual criminal. Subcultural theorists argue that certain groups develop norms and values which are diverse from those
held by other affiliates of society. Subcultural theories argue that deviance is the result of individuals conforming to the values and norms of the social
group to which they belong. Their subculture allows them to commit certain acts which are seen as deviant. Albert K. Cohen agreed with this
subcultural theory on deviance, where he believed that the development of subcultures is explained in terms of the position of groups or individuals in
the social structure. Sociological theories on deviance diverge from biological and psychological theories that elucidate norm violation in terms of
social notion, the development of theories of deviance reflect the social

7. Deviant Behavior
I enjoyed reading your post. Deviant behavior is any type of behavior that violates expectations that is considered acceptable in society. These
expectations follow a set of understandings and rules ("Deviant Behavior," 1968). With that said, I agree with you that the athletes in the article
Interpretations and Explanations of Deviance Among College Athletes: A Case Study (1994), displayed deviant behavior(s) (Snyder, 1994). Grand
larceny, conspiracy, and even the knowledge of such deviant acts is wrong. To answer your question, yes, I do feel as if some put athletes on a
pedestal. This and maybe the pressures of being an athlete might cause them partake in deviant acts. Personally, I believe that some feel that they are
above the law

8. Deviant Behavior Essay
Deviance is described as being behaviour that is not part of the norms in your particular society. This can be different throughout the world because
some cultures have very different norms (Stephens and Leach, 1998:17). Most deviant behaviour will attract disapproval from others in the society or
punishment from authorities. There are many different types of deviance such as addiction, mental illness, alcoholism, criminality and homosexuality.
Throughout this essay six types of theories will be discussed about how and why people are deviant. Four of these theories support the idea of
deviance being biological and three support the idea of it being caused by your social construction. Also the essay will talk about the differences

Cesare Lombroso was born in 1835. His view on deviance was that it can be biologically explained. He refers to the criminality part of deviance.
He was very well known for his theories and studies about the relation between mental and physical characteristics of people. He became famous
because he claimed to have found the reason that people were committing crimes. Lombroso believed that different physical appearances were an
indication to if you were a deviant or not. Lombroso called these differences "stigma" and said that they showed if you were a criminal or a
non–criminal (Sabbatini 1997:1). Lombroso described stigma as things like large jaws and cheekbones, long arms, abnormally big or small ears,
weird looking teeth and a general hairiness of the body (Burfeind and Bartusch 2011:119). His ideas came from a man called Franz Gall who created
Phrenology, a study that said you were a criminal if you had a large head. Lombroso's thesis was that you could tell the difference between a criminal
and a non–criminal by his physical appearance, that criminals were a different physical type. He used the term "atavism" to describe these people,
and said that they were not fully evolved (Burfeind and Bartusch 2011:119). Nowadays, Lombroso's theories have been scientifically discredited with
good reason. Lombroso's studies did have a positive
