Lecture 1. definitions of sociology
Sociology is defined by several scholars as: the scientific study of society (Auguste Comte); the study of social action (Max Weber); the study of collective behavior (Park & Burgess); and the study of social facts through social institutions (Emile Durkheim).

Components of Computer
Motherboards connect the various components of a computer system and determine the computer's capabilities. They come in different form factors and have varying components depending on the intended use of the system. Faster motherboards support higher CPU speeds and more memory through wider data buses that transfer information between components. Buses, sockets, and adapter cards are key components that expand the motherboard's capabilities by allowing additional devices to connect and communicate with the CPU and other parts. Common adapter cards include video graphics cards, sound cards, and network interface cards. User interfaces also connect through the motherboard and can be command-line based or graphical user interfaces using icons, windows, and a mouse.
System Unit
The document summarizes different components of a computer system unit. It discusses the processor, memory, adapter cards, and power supply as the main components inside the system unit case. It also describes the two main types of memory as RAM and ROM. RAM is volatile memory that loses its contents when power is turned off, while ROM is non-volatile and retains data without power. Examples of RAM include SRAM and DRAM, while examples of ROM include PROM and EPROM.
Classification of Computers
The document classifies computers based on size and shape as microcomputers, mini-computers, mainframe computers and super computers. It also classifies them based on data representation as analog computers, digital computers and hybrid computers. The key differences between analog and digital computers are that analog computers output voltage signals while digital computers output numbers, and digital computers have simpler data storage due to their numeric nature.

Carrer goals.pptx and their importance in real life
Career goals serve as a roadmap for individuals, guiding them toward achieving long-term professional aspirations and personal fulfillment. Establishing clear career goals enables professionals to focus their efforts on developing specific skills, gaining relevant experience, and making strategic decisions that align with their desired career trajectory. By setting both short-term and long-term objectives, individuals can systematically track their progress, make necessary adjustments, and stay motivated. Short-term goals often include acquiring new qualifications, mastering particular competencies, or securing a specific role, while long-term goals might encompass reaching executive positions, becoming industry experts, or launching entrepreneurial ventures.
Moreover, having well-defined career goals fosters a sense of purpose and direction, enhancing job satisfaction and overall productivity. It encourages continuous learning and adaptation, as professionals remain attuned to industry trends and evolving job market demands. Career goals also facilitate better time management and resource allocation, as individuals prioritize tasks and opportunities that advance their professional growth. In addition, articulating career goals can aid in networking and mentorship, as it allows individuals to communicate their aspirations clearly to potential mentors, colleagues, and employers, thereby opening doors to valuable guidance and support. Ultimately, career goals are integral to personal and professional development, driving individuals toward sustained success and fulfillment in their chosen fields.

Suzanne Lagerweij - Influence Without Power - Why Empathy is Your Best Friend...
This is a workshop about communication and collaboration. We will experience how we can analyze the reasons for resistance to change (exercise 1) and practice how to improve our conversation style and be more in control and effective in the way we communicate (exercise 2).
This session will use Dave Gray’s Empathy Mapping, Argyris’ Ladder of Inference and The Four Rs from Agile Conversations (Squirrel and Fredrick).
Abstract:
Let’s talk about powerful conversations! We all know how to lead a constructive conversation, right? Then why is it so difficult to have those conversations with people at work, especially those in powerful positions that show resistance to change?
Learning to control and direct conversations takes understanding and practice.
We can combine our innate empathy with our analytical skills to gain a deeper understanding of complex situations at work. Join this session to learn how to prepare for difficult conversations and how to improve our agile conversations in order to be more influential without power. We will use Dave Gray’s Empathy Mapping, Argyris’ Ladder of Inference and The Four Rs from Agile Conversations (Squirrel and Fredrick).
In the session you will experience how preparing and reflecting on your conversation can help you be more influential at work. You will learn how to communicate more effectively with the people needed to achieve positive change. You will leave with a self-revised version of a difficult conversation and a practical model to use when you get back to work.
Come learn more on how to become a real influencer!

Social Groups in Sociology
- 1. Sociology Presented by : Zunair, Mahnoor, Usama, Ghazanfer & Faisal. Topic Social Groups & it’s Types Group leadership.
- 2. Social Groups Social groups are everywhere and are a basic part of human life; everywhere you look there seem to be groups of people! A main focus of sociology is the study of these social groups. A social group consists of two or more people who regularly interact and share a sense of unity and common identity. In other words, it's a group of people who see each other frequently and consider themselves a part of the group. Except in rare cases, we all typically belong to many different types of social groups. For example, you could be a member of a sports team, club, church group, college class, workplace, and more
- 4. Types of Social Group. • Primary Groups A primary group is typically a small social group whose members share close, personal, enduring relationships. • Primary groups are marked by concern for one another, shared activities and culture, and long periods of time spent together. They are psychologically comforting and quite influential in developing personal identity. • Families and close friends are examples of primary groups. • The goal of primary groups is actually the relationships themselves rather than achieving some other purpose.
- 5. • Secondary Groups Secondary groups are large groups whose relationships are impersonal and goal oriented; their relationships are temporary. • Secondary relationships involve weak emotional ties and little personal knowledge of one another. In contrast to primary groups, secondary groups don’t have the goal of maintaining and developing the relationships themselves. • Secondary groups include groups in which one exchanges explicit commodities, such as labor for wages, services for payments, and such. They also include university classes, athletic teams, and groups of co-workers.
- 6. Informal & Formal Groups Informal groups, which means that they are based on the group members' shared interests and goals. Informal groups are not structured with a specific goal in mind. Group members interact on a very personal level. Examples of informal reference groups include: • Families • A group of local mothers • Peer groups Formal groups have a specific goal or mission. They also have a specific structure and positions of authority. Examples of formal reference groups include: • Labor unions • Mensa, a society for people with high IQ • Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD)
- 7. • Ethnic Group It is group which has its cultural traits different from the general culture of the society. • Cast Group It is Permanent group in Which the status of and individual is fixed through here dity alone. • Pressure Group It is that group which lays pressure on government to change its policies in its favour. • Organization Group A Formally Organized group, multipurpose and called congenial group because such group are product of friendship and association.
- 8. Group Leadership First, sociologists, by definition, favor the study of social forces, organizational dynamics, and the relative lack of agency that individuals have in these contexts. It follows, then, that sociologists wonder whether leaders are even worthy of sociological investigation and study. Types of Group Leadership • Instrumental leadership focuses on achieving goals. Leaders who are dominantly instrumental work to maintain productivity and ensure that tasks are completed. They make good managers because they get the job done. However, they are often so focused on the task that they can alienate other members of the group. • Expressive leadership on the other hand, focuses on maintaining group cohesion. Leaders who are dominantly expressive work to maintain warm, friendly relationships and ensure the collective well-being of the group. They make good bosses because they truly care for their employees. However, they are sometimes lacking efficiency and organizational skills.
