Assignment 2 Equality for All Social stratification is the ranBenitoSumpter862
Assignment 2: Equality for All?
Social stratification is the ranking of individuals in a hierarchy of unequal wealth, occupational prestige, and power. It is a feature of society and not a reflection of individual uniqueness or differences. Stratification is a universal feature found in all societies: agrarian, industrial, and postindustrial. Furthermore, socialization and cultures reproduce stratification and transmit it from one generation to the next.
Social institutions such as education, the economy, politics, and government maintain the stratified status quo. The goal of these institutions is to provide the needs of society and not a radical transformation of structured inequality. Changes in social stratification are usually slow and incremental rather than fast and revolutionary.
This discussion will give you an insight into the difficulties all societies face with regards to social stratification. Based on your readings and understanding of the above issues, discuss the answer to the following question with your classmates:
Is it possible to establish a society in which there is no stratification based on class? Explain your response with reasons.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

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.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
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.

2. Meaning of Education
From the Latin term
“educare” which means
“to learn”. The process
of receiving or giving
systematic instruction,
especially at a school or
university "a new system
of public education".
3. Meaning of Social Stratification
The term stratification is
derived from the geological
concept of ‘strata’ which
means “rock layers” created
by natural processes.
Stratification is a hierarchy
of positions with regard to
economic production which
influences the social rewards
to those in the positions.
4. Meaning of Social Stratification
It is the classification of
persons into groups based on
shared socio-economic
conditions. A relational set
of inequalities with
economic, social, political
and ideological dimensions.
It is a system by which
society ranks categories of
people in different strata.
5. Meaning of Stratification
In sociology, social stratification is
a concept involving the
"classification of people into
groups based on shared socio-
economic conditions… a relational
set of inequalities with economic,
social, political and ideological
dimensions." When differences
lead to greater status, power or
privilege for some groups over the
other it is called Social
Stratification.
6. Basic Principles of Social Stratification
(1) Social stratification is a
trait of society, not simply a
reflection of individual
differences;
(2) Social stratification carries
over from generation to
generation;
(3) Social stratification is
universal but variable;
(4) Social stratification involves
not just inequality but beliefs
as well.
7. According to Raymond W. Murray
“Social Stratification is
horizontal division of society
into ‘higher’ and ‘lower’ social
units.” Every society is divided
into more or less distinct
groups. Even the most
primitive societies had some
form of social stratification.
Stratification describes the
way in which different groups
of people are placed within
society.
16. Agents of Social Stratification
FAMILY
The family plays a
significant role in the
development of an
individual. There are also
factors that may affect a
child which include the
occupational status of his
parents, the parents’
attitude towards their
children’s schooling and the
expectations they have for
their children.
17. Agents of Social Stratification
SCHOOL
Social stratification within the
school commonly known as
streaming, refers to the division
of school children into age
groups according to ability and
intelligence. The brightest
children are made to form one
class while those that follow in
ability form another class. The
children are divided into groups,
purely according to the merit of
the individual.
18.
19. Agents of Social Stratification
OCCUPATION
In modern societies, roles have
become more diverse and
complex. Skills are learned
through formal education
systems and education has a
lot to do with employment,
the occupations one follows is
mostly related to the skills and
knowledge which one has
acquired.
22. CONFLICT
Stratification occurs
due to conflict
between different
classes, with the
upper classes using
superior power to
take a larger share
of the social
resources.
25. INSTABILITY
Instability in the
society being the
cause of social
stratification
enhances stability
and induces
members of the
society to work
hard.
26. Methods of Determining Class Division
Subjective Method
Personal ascription of the class one
belongs to.
Reputational Method
Old-timers identify the social classes
that exist in the community and to
place each resident in one or another
category.
Objective Method
Division according to income,
occupation, education and type of
residence.
27. Theories of Social Stratification
Conflict Theory (Karl Marx)
Stratification is the result of the struggle among people for
scarce rewards and it persists in society because the “haves” are
determined (exploiters) and equipped to preserve their advantage
by dominating and exploiting the “have not” (exploited).
Class conflict over material privilege and power; those who
own the means of production (capitalists or bourgeoisie) and those
who sell their labour (worker or proletariat).
Viewed the nation or state as an instrument of oppression;
religion as a method of diverting and controlling the masses; the
family as a devise of keeping wealth and education in the hands of
the few.
People’s lives are centered on how they deal with the material
world. The key issue is how wealth is distributed among the
people.
28. Four ways in which wealth can be
distributed:
To each according to need. Basic economic needs
of all of the people are satisfied.
To each according to want. Wealth is distributed
according to what people desire and request.
To each according to what is earned.
To each according to what can be taken- by using
whatever means. Everyone ruthlessly attempts
to acquire much wealth as possible without
regard for the hardship that might be brought on
others.
29. Conflict Theory (Max Weber)
People are motivated by self-interest.
Group conflict is a basic ingredient of society.
Those who do not have property can defend their
interests less well than those who have property.
Economic institutions are of fundamental importance in
shaping the rest of society.
Those in power promote ideas and values that help them
maintain their dominance.
Only when exploitation becomes extremely obvious will
the powerless their dominance.
30. Functionalist Theory (Kingly Davis and
Wilbert Moore)
If all the positions that have to be filled in a society were
equally important and everyone were equally capable of
doing their jobs, there would be no need of stratification.
But this is not the case. Some tasks are clearly more
necessary than others, and some require a great deal
more talent and training.
Social inequality is viewed as both necessary and
constructive.
31. Similarities of Stratification Theories
(Theodore D. Kemper)
Both theories acknowledge that the evaluation of the
contributions of jobs to society also determines unequal
rewards.
The Marxist theory leans heavily on the significance of
power in the distribution of resources; while the
functionalist emphasize the necessity of assigning some
position or work higher status than others.
Both theories recognize that social power plays a part in
determining the unequal distribution of rewards.
32. Comparison of Stratification Theories
FUNCTIONALIST VIEW CONFLICT THEORY
Stratification may be universal
without being necessary and
inevitable
The stratification system
shapes social organizations
(social system)
Stratification arises from group
conquest, competition, and
conflict
Stratification impeded the
optimal functioning of society
and the individual
Stratification is universal,
necessary and inevitable
Social organization (the social
system) shapes the
stratification system
Stratification arises from the
societal need for integration,
coordination and cohesion
Stratification facilitates the
optimal functioning of society
and the individual
33. FUNCTIONALIST VIEW
Stratification is an expression
of commonly shared social
values
Power is usually legitimately
distributed in society
Tasks and rewards are equitably
allocated.
The economic dimensions is
subordinate to other
dimensions of society
Stratification systems generally
change through evolutionary
processes
CONFLICT THEORY
Stratification is an expression
of the values of powerful
groups
Power is usually illegitimately
distributed in society
Tasks and rewards are
inequitably allocated.
The economic dimension is
paramount in society
Stratification systems often
change through revolutionary
process.
35. Equality
of
Educational
Opportunity
Modern society views
education as an important societal
resource and a means of achieving
the goal of egalitarianism.
Education is looked upon as a
means of raising the social status
of an individual in various ways. It
is accepted as a basic human need
to have a desirable quality of life.
Given equal opportunity for
general, vocational, technical and
professional education most
citizens have equal status in the
society.
36. Differential Standard of Educational
Institutions
Children from poor families receive education in
substandard institutions which are not properly
equipped with teachers, teaching aids and
apparatus. Usually urban schools and colleges are of
better standard than rural schools and colleges.
Differences in the standard of educational
institutions ultimately cause inequality in the
standard of students.
37. Primary Education
Primary education should
seek to satisfy the basic
needs of all people. There
should not be any
differentiation of curricula
at this stage. Equality of
educational opportunities at
the primary stage requires
provision of free and
compulsory education for all
children without any
discrimination.
38. Secondary Education
Individual differences
among boys and girls are
more prominent at the
secondary stage
diversified curricula
should be introduced to
cater to the needs,
interests and capabilities
of students.
39. Higher Professional Education
At the stage of higher
education and
professional education
emphasis should be
placed on individual
capacity or merit and
maintenance of quality
and standard.
40. Compensatory Education
Disadvantaged children
have an unstimulating
environment. They attend
primary schools without
prerequisite learning
which are necessary for
successful completion of
primary education.
41. Focus of Education
Should be on equality of educational opportunities
Focusing on different segments of society (rural areas, deprived
classes, tribal races etc.)
Study the ideology, structure and process of social inequality
Development of equal system of education enriched with diversified
course content to cater the needs of various groups and sections.
Diversified methods of teaching
Distance education
Establishment of educational institutions in remote areas
Global system of education
Special provisions for education of deprived groups
Promotion of multiculturalism in process of education.
42. Teacher’s Role in Society
Teacher as an architect of our future generations
Imparting knowledge
Inculcation of values
Make student to learn life skills
Economic development
Development of personality
Development of good citizenship
Development of scientific and humanistic attitude
Creating awareness among society
Social reforms
Character formation
Agent of social change
50. Conclusion:
It can be said that from the point of view of
an educational system those who are already
at the upper strata of the society are likely
to gain more. They have higher achievement
motivation and their environment helps
them. If we wish to provide equality of
educational opportunists we will have to
keep this aspect in mind.
