Chapter 4
Socialization
This Chapter Will Help You:
Define and understand the role of socialization
Understand and critique the nature/nurture debate in relation to sociology
Outline the agents of socialization
Compare and contrast primary and secondary socialization
Define resocialization
Summarize the theoretical approaches to socialization
Defining Socialization
Socialization involves social learning through social interaction
It helps an individual become a capable member of their society
It is influenced by our social class, ethnicity, gender, etc.
The Influence of Nature
Biological Determinism
The argument that our behaviour is determined by our genetic makeup
Seeks evidence of the biological roots of behaviour
Argues that behaviour evolves over time to secure the survival of the species
The Influence of Nurture
We are products of our environment
Our behaviour is the product of social interactions and learning
The social environment is crucial to an individual’s socialization
Isolation in Non-Human Primates
Harlow researched the effects of maternal separation and social isolation in rhesus monkeys
Lack of social interaction had significant consequences such as fear or hostility
Isolation in Humans – Feral Children
Children who are assumed to have been raised by animals
The Case of Victor
A boy was discovered in a forest in 18th century France
He was 11 years old and it was assumed that he had lived alone in the forest for 5 or 6 years
A doctor who attempted to socialize him was partially successful
He was never able to speak
Isolation in Humans – The Case of Anna
Anna was discovered in 1932 at the age of 6
She had been locked in a storage room her entire life
She had no social skills and could not speak
She began to show improvement after her discovery but died at the age of 10
Isolation in Humans – The Case of Genie
Genie was discovered at the age of 13 in 1972
She had been locked in a room and tied down from the age of 20 months
She was studied and taught by experts at a children’s hospital
She acquired some skills but could not fully recover from the isolation and neglect
The Turpins – Isolation and Child Abuse
The Turpins kept their 13 children locked in dark rooms or chained to their beds
The children were severely malnourished and dirty
Yet this is the image the parents put out on social media
Primary Socialization
The learning that occurs in an individual's earliest years
It sets the tone for future development
It usually occurs in family settings
Children learn language, norms, values, beliefs, and social skills
Secondary Socialization
This is the socialization that occurs past childhood and throughout adulthood
It is more limited than primary socialization
It has less effect on our self-image
Individuals learn specific roles, norms, attitudes, and beliefs for different adult situations
Functionalist Approach

Solution
Ans 1 :Cooley and his theory of socialization :
The looking-glass self is a social psychological concept, created by Charles Horton Cooley in
1902 (McIntyre 2006), stating that a person\'s self grows out of society\'s interpersonal
interactions and the perceptions of others. The term refers to people shaping their self-concepts
based on their understanding of how others perceive them. Cooley clarified that society is an
interweaving and inter-working of mental selves. The term \"looking glass self\" was first used
by Cooley in his work, Human Nature and the Social Order in 1902.
There are three main components of the looking-glass self:
1. First, we imagine how we must appear to others.
2. Second, we imagine the judgment of that appearance.
3. Finally, we develop our self through the judgments of others.
Ans 2 : Concept of socialization :
Socialisation is a term used by sociologists, social psychologists, anthropologists, political
scientists, and educationalists to refer to the lifelong process of inheriting and disseminating
norms, customs, values and ideologies, providing an individual with the skills and habits
necessary for participating within their own society. Socialization is thus \"the means by which
social and cultural continuity are attained\".
Socialisation describes a process which may lead to desirable outcomes—sometimes labeled
\"moral\"—as regards the society where it occurs. Individual views on certain issues, for instance
race or economics, are influenced by the society\'s consensus and usually tend toward what that
society finds acceptable or \"normal\". Many socio-political theories postulate that socialization
provides only a partial explanation for human beliefs and behaviors, maintaining that agents are
not blank slates predetermined by their environment; scientific research provides evidence that
people are shaped by both social influences and genes. Genetic studies have shown that a
person\'s environment interacts with his or her genotype to influence behavioral outcomes.
Ans 2 : Goffman and his theory of socialization :
Dramaturgy is a sociological perspective commonly used in microsociological accounts of social
interaction in everyday life. The term was first adapted into sociology from the theatre by Erving
Goffman, who developed most of the related terminology and ideas in his 1959 book,The
Presentation of Self in Everyday Life.
In dramaturgical sociology it is argued that the elements of human interactions are dependent
upon time, place, and audience. In other words, to Goffman, the self is a sense of who one is, a
dramatic effect emergin.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter 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.

51. Goffman in education The "Cooling-Out" Function in Higher Education adaptation to failure gives “solutions” or cooling-out strategies for students who do not fulfill schools requirements Using Goffman's concepts to explore collaborative interaction processes in elementary school mathematic the different roles that emerge in the process of collaborative interaction the influence of these roles on group achievement and individual learning possibilities
52. Goffman in education Lives in 2 languages: An exploration of identity and culture discussion about the American identity common misperceptions about immigrants as students Addressing the baseline: Erving Goffman and ethics in a postgraduate degree for practicing teachers. Problem: Students generally experience great difficulty with conceptual thinking Findings: Students research changed to go beyond simple description to observations guided by theoretical ideas Showed how context relates to the forms of behavior in public and to the situation of observing these forms. Provided insights into an ordinary situation and was a valid way to study characters in that setting Observation can be focused on looking for specific things rather than trying to note everything
53. Face - work in facebook Sel-f presentation theories - internet was not invented or in use Face to face interaction Online? A Study of Self-Presentation in Light of Facebook ‘Screw Blackboard... do it on Facebook!’: an investigation of students’ educational use of Facebook
54. Face - work in facebook A Study of Self-Presentation in Light of Facebook How Goffman´s approach may be transported to online social networks How Facebook contributes to our understanding of self-presentation. Self-presentation is an especially significant element of Facebook. Facebook is different from face-to-face interactions in that very little is done spontaneously This means that the self-presentation I under control…. Or not?
55. Face - work in facebook ‘Screw Blackboard... do it on Facebook!’: an investigation of students’ educational use of Facebook To observe the social significance of Facebook in the lives of undergraduate university students in the UK Micro-management of their social lives Its combination of self-presentation, viewing of others’ personal information and situational relevance to campus life proved attractive to students They use it for the informal aspects of their education Education and university-related exchanges - a minor constituent of student postings Facebook appear to be an important arena within which the ‘behind the scenes work’ are performed “Raises important questions about how universities will articulate their teaching relationships with internal student cohorts”
56. Conclusions Clear to understand Simple to apply for a highly qualitative interpretivist perspective Online self presentation, social networks, e-learning platforms, environments - new theories/amendments Applied: Societies: rigid beliefs, image as an important issue Education: students behavior, counseling, academic, stake holders roles in policy implementation, etc. Medical field: Doctor-patient relationship, ethics. Political field: leadership personalities, scandals (Watergate) No one can stay out of performing different roles in their life… “The world is a wedding”
