DevianceDeviance and Social Control
Deviance: behavior that does not conform with cultural norms or social standards
· Deviance depends on a person’s culture and subculture; deviant actions may not be considered deviant in a different place or time.
· For example, actions such as smoking indoors, playing loud music, or being nude in public can be considered deviant or not, depending on when and where they happen. Deviance and Crime: Formal and Informal Sanctions
Informal sanctions: forms of punishment for mild violations of social norms
· Examples of mild violations: cutting in line, eating with your fingers at a nice restaurant, texting during a film in a movie theater
· Examples of informal sanctions: nasty looks, rude comments, isolation from social groups
Formal sanctions: forms of punishment for serious violations of social norms that are written laws
· Examples of serious violations: murder, rape, theft, speeding
· Examples of sanctions: fines, jail time, criminal recordTheoretical Perspectives on Deviance
· Functionalist perspective
· A functional society needs deviance to reaffirm current social norms and to set boundaries for social control and morality.
· Conflict theorist perspective
· Deviance and crime are caused by social and economic factors created by a wealthy elite class of people in power who maintain the status quo in society, decide what is deviant, and determine who gets criminalized for deviant behavior.
· Symbolic interactionist perspective
· Deviance is behavior that is learned from social interactions with other people, either as a response to others’ reactions or by modeling their deviance.
Social Stratification
Social stratification: society’s way of categorizing people by socioeconomic status, ranked by tiers based on factors that reflect an unequal distribution of resources
· Sociologists recognize that social stratification is a society-wide system that makes inequalities apparent.
Class system: a way of describing the level of someone’s social standing based on their individual accomplishments and social factors
· Examples of class systems in the U.S.: lower, middle, and higher income
· Primary characteristics of each class serve as social boundaries between them.
· Socioeconomic status (SES) in a class system determines individuals’ life outcomes.
Wealth: the value of assets owned by a household
· Wealth enhances one’s life chances by creating opportunities and desired stature, command over labor and businesses, and the abil.

This document was adopted from the Resource Center Team within the Office of Diversity & Inclusion of Amherst College as a guide to common, shared language around identity.
This project emerged out of a need to come to a common and shared understanding of language in order to foster opportunities for community building and effective communication within and across difference.
This is a list of carefully researched and thoughtfully discussed definitions for key diversity and inclusion terms. It is by no means a comprehensive list, but it is a good place for us to start. We understand that language around identity, privilege, oppression and inclusion is always changing, evolving and expanding.
If there is a term that you feel should be included here, or possibly redefined, please let us know. You can email The Office of Equity & Inclusion (OSEI), at osei@georgetown.edu.

TITLEEEEE
Introduction
Social class is a hierarchy in which groups and individuals are categorized according
to prestige and esteem developed from wealth and economic success. A social class simply
means a set of individuals with the same levels of wealth, status and influence are grouped
together. According to Karl Marx Theory of social class, what differentiates one category of
a society from another it’s the method of production. Each method of production forms a
certain class system which controls the production while the other classes are the producers
and provide service to the prevailing class.
Sociologists use three approaches to determine a social class. The approaches used
include objective, reputational, and subjective methods. The objective method is where
sociologists measure and evaluate physical facts. On the subjective method, individuals are
questioned on how they think about themselves, while on the reputational method individuals
are asked on how they think about other people. Through this approach, people are divided
into various social classes.

The four main social classes include the upper, middle, working and lower class.
These social classes only are classified in America. The upper class are the individuals that
have the supreme status in society. From my understanding these people are very wealthy
and have a lot of power. Some occupation of these individuals may be investors, CEOs ,
heirs and some celebrities. The middle class are individuals that are considered white collar
workers and these individuals may work in the professional setting. The working class are
the individuals of low status occupations such as manual labor, food and retail jobs, blue
collar jobs, jobs where you are in a cubicle, and even caring jobs such as home health aides.
The lower class, which is at the bottom, are individuals with low education that leads to low
status jobs which leads to low income.
According to the book Social Class and Stratification: Classic Statements and
Theoretical Debates edited by Rhonda F. Levine, she writes “When societies are complex
and service large populations, they always possess some kind of status system which, by its
own values, places people on higher or lower positions” (Levine 71). This quote stood out to
me because Levine is saying that is almost inevitable to not have a hierarchy within a society.
A system is put in place to have some kind of order within the society, so with a system
hierarchy is needed. ...

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.
June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
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 “any matter” at “any time” 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

2. Introduction
Stratification refers to imbalance in quantity, size,
degree, value, or status. This often implies an
imbalance in ability or resources to meet a
challenge. Inequality in societies in general is
manifest in caste, class, gender, and power
relations. In simple societies based on kinship,
stratification is evident in status distinctions
determined by age, sex, and personal
characteristics.
3. Social Stratification
Sahlins (1969) identifies three functional criteria of
stratification: economic (referring to the extent of
control over production, distribution, and
consumption and the privileges associated with
them), socio-political (referring to power and
authority to regulate interpersonal affairs and
impose sanctions on those who go wrong), and
ceremonial (referring to access to the supernatural
and in distinctive ritual behaviour).
4. Social Stratification
The different categories of people are
treated alike and one is not treated as more
significant than the other. This is the
concept of difference in social categories.
When unequal statuses and rewards are
attached to social categories and these are
ranked on the basis of one or more defining
factors, they are treated as unequal.
6. Conclusion
we have explored the concepts of gender and
stratification in the larger framework of
societies and social relationships. We
identified the determinants of inequality and
distinguished between natural and social
inequality.
