This document provides information on the sociological perspectives of feminism and interactionism. It describes three main types of feminist approaches: Marxist feminism, which sees women's oppression as stemming from capitalism; radical feminism, which views patriarchy and male aggression as oppressing women; and liberal feminism, which believes equality can be achieved through legal reforms and changing attitudes. The document also explains that interactionism focuses on how individuals interpret situations within small groups and how this shapes their behavior and identity. Labels and stigma from others within these groups can influence whether people decide they are ill or not.

Feminist Therapy
Introduction
Feminist therapy puts gender and power at the core of the therapeutic process. It is built on the premise that it is essential to consider the social and cultural context that contributes to a personâs problems in order to understand that person.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Â
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
Â
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 wasnât 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.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Â
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
⢠The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
⢠The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate âany matterâ at âany timeâ under House Rule X.
⢠The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Normal Labour/ Stages of Labour/ Mechanism of LabourWasim Ak
Â
Normal labor is also termed spontaneous labor, defined as the natural physiological process through which the fetus, placenta, and membranes are expelled from the uterus through the birth canal at term (37 to 42 weeks
2. â˘To describe 2 of the main sociological
perspectives:
â˘Feminism
â˘Interactionism
Learning objectives
3.
4. So what do feminists believe?
⢠Feminism is an alternative conflict theory, like Marxists.
⢠Feminists see society as being fundamentally divided but between
the sexes rather than between classes.
⢠Feminists believe that women are unfairly treated and they want to
change society so that there is equality between men and women.
5. Feminists argue thatâŚ
⢠Feminist sociology stresses the importance of gender divisions in
society and it portrays these divisions as working to the overall
advantage of men.
⢠It is men who rule society and who have the power in most social
situations â in relationships, in families, in schools and so on.
⢠This situation is called patriarchy.
8. HISTORY OF
FEMINISM
⢠1ST WAVE
⢠Suffragettes wanted the right to vote
⢠1918 rights given to women over 30
⢠1928 equal right given at 21yrs
⢠2nd WAVE
⢠1960s concentrated on equal rights in
the workplace
⢠1961 free contraception
⢠1970 equal pay act
⢠2008 women's pay still averaged
2/3rds of men's which decreased
after 40yrs.
10. IMPACTS OF FEMINISM
ON SOCIETY
FAMILY

and contribute financially
Have more say in
family matters
Stay at home dads

11. ⢠Men have tended to dominate social life.
⢠Other sociological perspectives have been developed by men from
men's points of view.
3 main approaches:
⢠Marxist Feminism
⢠Radical feminism
⢠Liberal Feminism
Feminists believeâŚ
12. ⢠Women, especially working class women, are seen as being
oppressed both by the system and by men. She is expected to be a
support worker to the system in socialising her children to âfit inâ and
at the same time propping her man with home comforts so he can
work.
Marxist feminist
13. ⢠Men are the main problem as the family is seen to be patriarchal and
using women as âdomesticated housekeepersâ is a form of oppression.
⢠See the socialisation of women as housewives and mothers as a form
of oppression and this oppression as a characteristic of nuclear family
life (family comprising of a pair of adults and their children).
Radical feminist
14. ⢠This is a more modern view, which believes changes have been made
in society especially about the attitudes expressed above.
⢠They would argue that changes have taken place. They believe that ,
through changing attitudes and legislation such as the Equal Pay Act
(1970)and the Sex Discrimination Act (1975) there is more equality.
Liberal feminist
15. DIVISIONS OF FEMINISM
MARXIST
â˘Combines key concepts of patriarchy
with Marxism
â˘Womenâs oppression is a symptom of
a more fundamental form of oppression
â CAPITALISM
â˘Role of women in the family serves
the interests of the economy and the
ruling class
RADICAL
â˘Society is patriarchal and biased
towards men
â˘Do not think lobbying will bring
equality
â˘Men use aggression to control women
and thus maintain their dominant
position
â˘Highlights dark side of family life
LIBERAL
â˘Equality can be brought about through legal reform
â˘Men need to be educated of womenâs potential
â˘Advocate changing the system from within (lobbying and protesting)
16. RADICAL
FEMINISTS
MARXIST
FEMINISTS
LIBERAL
FEMINISTS
Marriage is the theft of
womenâs labour
Marriage gives men
property rights over
women
Fathers should also have
right to a close relationship
with their children
Divorce allows women to
escape a violent marriage
Women âserviceâ men like a
car going to a garage
Many couples have equal
partnership
Men do very little
housework and childcare
compared to women
Women are useful if there
are plenty of jobs to fill but
when there is not they are
sent back to be
housewives
Man is in touch with his
feminine side
Who says what?
17. What gender stereotypes do you think you
encountered as a child?
Hint:
Think about what your parents roles were?
What toys did you buy or want when you were a child?
What was your favourite colour?
What did you want to be when you were older?
How would people describe you as a baby? Eg. Cute/ Pretty
18. Now you can complete the Feminism
section of P1
â˘Outline the three main feminist
approaches
â˘Explain how women are socialised into
caring roles
19. Task One
Imagine youâre writing an article for a local magazine.
You are trying to persuade people to join the feminist movement.
Write an article outlining the key points of the feminists approach.
This can be used towards your assignment.
21. Lucy is a working mum with a 6
month old baby. She has recently
started to develop migraines.
Arthur has been living in the
UK for a year now. He has
always suffered from red
blotchy eyes and a mucus
cough.
Collin can work up to a 10 hour
shift some days sweeping, on the
weekends he works as a postman
to make ends meet. Hi cough has
been getting worse by day.
You need to be able to relate the perspectives to health
For each person write down:
⢠How your perspective applies.
⢠Link the key points.
⢠So why is that person ill?
23. Rather than focus on large
institutions, interactionism
focuses on small groups and
how they influence individual
behaviour and shape society.
What do interactionists focus upon?
24. Interested in what goes on within (rather than
between) social institutions and interactions
between people.
25. What kind of groups do
Interactionistâs study?
⢠They study diverse groups such as the interactions
between âŚ.
⢠Teenage gangs and older people
⢠Teachers and students
⢠Patients and visitors on hospital wards
They study how the groups respond to each other
⢠They see our behaviour as being a result ofâŚ
⢠How we interpret situations within smaller groups
⢠How we see ourselves in relation to other people in the
group
26. Take a look at these images, what might influence
the behaviour of the people in the pictures?
27. Self image
⢠Interactionistâs study the complex
interactions between people, their
family and friends and their links with
the professional services.
⢠They believe that these relationships
have as much influence as any
medical diagnosis on whether people
decide they are ill or not.
28. Impact of self image
When people are ill theyâŚâŚâŚâŚâŚ
Label themselves as ill e.g. having a cold or being âunder the
weatherâ
⢠They can attach a label to themselves.
⢠Others can attach a label to themâŚâŚ.such as, who?
⢠The labels can be either quite positive or negative.
⢠Some labels have a stigma attached to them.
30. The stigma is
attached due to the
interpretation of the
illness by the people
who place the label.
Examples from
popular culture?
31. Stigma of labels
What stigma do you think
might be attached?Some people may not state
they are ill, due to an
attached stigma
E.g. HIV â Gay sex
STD â Promiscuous
THRUSH - Promiscuous
32. Labelling
⢠CONSIDER WHAT THE ISSUES MIGHT BE WITH
LABELLING? (P1)
e.g. Once diagnosed with, and labelled as having
depression, what might happen ?
⢠A main concern with labelling is that once a person is
labelled as having an illness, that individual can fall
into a negative cycle.
⢠This can have an impact on whether they recover or
not.
34. Task Two
You are working in the health and social care sector.
You have been asked to produce a leaflet underling the issues of labelling
and stigma.
You must:
⢠Outline the issue of labelling and the effects of being stigmatised.
⢠What is labelling?
⢠What is stigma?
⢠What is the issues with labelling? - Outline the NEGATIVE CYCLE and link
to depression
⢠People may not admit theyâre ill due to stigma
This can be used towards your assignment
35. Assignment 1
You can now complete Task 1 (P1)
Interactionism
⢠Explain how interactionism influences individual
behaviour.
⢠How do we interpret ourselves?
⢠How are we influenced by others? (Health & Social
care professionals/family)
⢠We have the power to choose how we behave
⢠How do our interactions with others shape
our self-image?
36. Assignment 1
You can now complete Task 1 (P1)
Interactionism
⢠Outline the issue of labelling and the effects of
being stigmatised.
