The emergence of social science disciplines was driven by the need to systematically study and analyze human society as it grew in complexity. The major social science disciplines that emerged include anthropology, economics, geography, history, linguistics, political science, psychology, demography, and sociology. Each discipline focuses on a different aspect of human social behavior and relationships to provide insights into how societies function. The development of social sciences helped experts better understand human aspects of the world using scientific methods.
Topic 12 the person and others
This document discusses philosophical perspectives on interpersonal relationships. It covers several key points:
1. Existentialism views interpersonal relationships through the lens of one's awareness of self and others. Relationships involve acknowledging others as separate individuals.
2. Intersubjectivity refers to the shared understanding between individuals through social interaction. Deeper relationships involve viewing others as genuine and unique.
3. Some philosophers like Sartre saw relationships as frustrating and inauthentic, while others like Husserl and Marcel emphasized empathy, availability, and genuine dialogue between individuals.
4. Christianity defines ideal relationships as fellowship, love, support and care for others as exemplified through God's relationship with humanity

Becoming a member of society
This document discusses key concepts related to becoming a member of society. It defines identity as the qualities that make a person unique, which can change based on environment and expectations. Identity is formed through three perspectives: identity theory focuses on roles, social identity theory on group membership, and personal identity theory on individual characteristics. A sense of self includes self-concept, self-esteem, and personality, which is influenced by genetics, socialization, experiences, and whether one feels in internal or external control. Culture socializes individuals through norms and values. Status describes one's social position while roles are expectations for that status. Conformity and deviance are also discussed, along with forms of social control and the importance of upholding human
Lesson 2 importance of quant r
Quantitative research uses statistical and mathematical techniques to systematically investigate observable phenomena in natural and social sciences. The document discusses how quantitative research has contributed across various fields like anthropology, communication, medicine, behavioral science, education/psychology, and social science. Quantitative research in these fields has provided discoveries about human behavior and evolution, allowed generalization of communication phenomena to larger populations, enhanced medical education, furthered understanding of human relations and behavior, and informed educational principles through studies like those conducted by the Department of Social Welfare and Development.
Henry moseley atomic number
Henry Moseley discovered the relationship between an element's atomic number and the wavelength of its x-ray emissions. This led to a better arrangement of the periodic table and allowed scientists to predict and later synthesize new elements in the laboratory. Moseley arranged the elements according to the square root of the x-ray frequency, which more correctly predicted periodic trends. The invention of the cyclotron provided accelerated particles that could bombard heavy nuclear targets to synthesize new elements through nuclear reactions. One of the first artificially made elements was technetium, produced by bombarding molybdenum with deuterons. Many transuranic and superheavy elements have since been synthesized using similar nuclear reaction methods.
Philippine literature during the spanish period
During the Spanish period in Philippine literature from 1565-1872:
- Literature flourished as the Spanish introduced Christianity, the Spanish language, and translated ancient Filipino works. Genres included religious texts, grammars, folk songs, plays, and poems.
- Early works were Christian doctrines and folktales translated to Tagalog. Poetry and plays grew increasingly popular and dealt with love, politics, and religion.
- Spanish colonialism influenced Philippine literature through the propagation of Christianity, the imposition of the Spanish language, and the introduction of European genres and traditions.

1. Many sociologists argue that socialization is needed to make people human- that without socialization we would never gain the pro social skills needed to build society. Discuss how social changes like technology have impacted our socialization. How does that impact our "humanness"?
2. There has been a lot of debate about the value of the Internet over the last few years-
On the positive side it has been argued that the Internet provides rapid inexpensive exchange of information. That it enables people to meet, discover information on their own, and learn in ways that are revolutionary and new.
On the other hand, many have argued that the Internet is a big waste of time- there is too much information available on the Internet, which makes it impossible to determine the truth or actual value of that information- resulting in less educated and informed individuals. Online social networking has created isolation of individuals and diminished the strength of social ties and social institutions. Access to the Internet is still limited for some minority groups resulting in inequality, and that some of the information on the Internet is harmful.
However very little commentary or analysis looks at it from the standpoint of social groups- using the information from this week’s lecture (as well as your book and course modules) develop an argument about the Internet and group processes- is the Internet good for group organization or bad? What is social control like on the Internet? What are the consequences of the social control or lack or social control on the Internet for groups? For individuals? For society?
Note: make sure you are using class concepts for these answers. Do not get caught up in the idea of the internet to the point that you forget that the purpose is to discuss class concepts of group behavior. Group behavior theories and concepts were developed using face to face interactions. I want you to apply them to online interactions. Also note social networks in sociology is not the same as the common use of social networks online.
3. We have painted society as mostly compliant and seen studies that indicate that people comply- particularly with authority
However, there is plenty of evidence that people are regularly deviant
In studies 50 to 70 percent of students say they have cheated
Many people commonly cheat- on their taxes, on their partners and spouses, at games
So, is conformity an illusion?
Under what circumstances do you see people are more likely to comply- when are they less likely?
If deviance is so common why is it still not socially acceptable?
Real world application
Step 1 this week- go to the movies (seriously) or watch a movie at home. You can choose a movie if you would like but this week we are talking about socialization, groups, social control and deviance so choose something that you think will work well for that assignment. An ensemble film will b.

Outline
Before you start writing the first draft of your essay or research project, it is always useful to make an
outline of your ideas. If you have already decided on your focus or topic, and you have a rough list of
sources for support, then you are ready to draft an outline.
Keep in mind that outlines are required to follow a format style (eg. APA). An outline is simply a
way to organize your ideas and information. The following is an abbreviated version of what is often
referred to as a formal or “traditional” outline. It can be expanded or condensed to fit the scope of
your essay or research project. The example below is based on the five-paragraph essay model.
The Thesis Statement (TS) will be the
last 1-3 sentences of the introduction.
I. Introduction
A. Thesis Statement
II. Body paragraph #1 – Topic Sentence #1
A. Supporting Evidence
1. Name of & quote from source Supporting Evidence
Integrate an appropriate example,
such as a quote, statistic, case
study, etc.
2. Name of & quote from source #2 (if applicable)
B. Explanation
1. Explanation of source
2. Explanation of source #2 (if applicable)
C. So What?
Explanation
Explain how this evidence supports your
topic sentence. Try to develop your
explanation in 2-4 sentences.
III. Body paragraph #2 – Topic Sentence #2
A. Supporting Evidence
1.

What’s significant or important about the
ideas (topic sentence + evidence +
explanation) in this paragraph? Remind
your reader how all this connects back to
the TS.
2.
B. Explanation
1.

C. So What?
IV. Body paragraph #3 – Topic Sentence #3

The TS is the first 1-3 sentences of the
conclusion. It should be “rephrased” here
rather than repeated verbatim. Avoid
simply summarizing the main points in
the conclusion: synthesize them.
B. Explanation
C. So What?
V. Conclusion
A. Rephrase thesis statement
B. Bring closure by going from specific to broad
To see what a complete outline, refer to the model below. The thesis statement has been taken from

I. Introduction
A. Thesis Statement
Although there are educational television programs, parents should regulate the
amount of television their children watch because it is not always intellectually
stimulating, it can distort a child’s perception of reality, and it inhibits social
interaction.
II. Body paragraph #1 - Topic Sentence #1
While television has the potential to offer programs that can be seen as educational
supplements, too much television has an even greater potential for turning children
into passive viewers and getting in the way of intellectual sti.

Communication models
The transactional model of communication views communication as an ongoing process where people are constantly influencing and being influenced by others through both verbal and nonverbal exchanges. This model sees communication as circular rather than linear, with people affecting and effecting one another simultaneously through an ongoing process of transmitting messages and providing feedback.
Communication (Introduction)
Communication is the process of sharing messages to generate meaning and occurs in a specific context or situation. It involves a source, message, channel, receiver, feedback, codes, encoding, decoding, and can be impacted by noise. Key components of communication are the source who initiates the message, the message itself which can be verbal or nonverbal, and the receiver who is the intended target. There are various contexts of communication including intrapersonal, interpersonal, public, and mass communication. Effective communication considers factors such as the relationship between individuals, quantity does not determine quality, and communication is irreversible.
Communication
Communication is the process of sharing messages to generate meaning. It occurs in a context and involves various components, including a source, receiver, message, channel, feedback, codes, encoding, decoding, and potential noise. The key components of communication are the source who initiates the message, the receiver who is the intended target, the message itself which can be verbal or nonverbal, and the channel through which the message travels from source to receiver. For communication to be successful, the receiver must understand the meaning of the message through decoding it.

ENSP703 Thesis Statement

Writing process
This document discusses different approaches to the writing process. It describes linear writers who take time to outline and brainstorm before writing, and do not edit as they write. In contrast, cyclical writers generate ideas as they write and edit each sentence before moving on. The document recommends following the stages of the writing process: prewriting, writing, evaluation, revising, and producing a final copy. Good writing requires multiple drafts and being willing to rewrite parts of the paper.
Pre writing strategies
Prewriting is the first step in the traditional writing process and involves activities done before the first draft to generate and organize ideas. Some common prewriting techniques include listing, free writing, clustering, and cubing. Listing involves jotting down every idea about the topic without censoring. Free writing has the writer continuously write about the subject for 10-15 minutes without worrying about mechanics. Clustering maps out ideas that relate to the central topic through drawings of lines and circles. Cubing looks at a topic from six angles: describing, comparing, associating, analyzing, applying, and arguing. Prewriting helps writers explore different perspectives on their topic before beginning the first draft.
Public speaking
Here are 3 types of speeches with brief descriptions:
1. Informative speech: The purpose is to educate or inform the audience on a particular topic. Facts and explanations are provided objectively without taking a position.
2. Persuasive speech: The goal is to persuade the audience to adopt a particular viewpoint or take a specific action. Logical arguments and evidence are used to convince the listeners.
3. Demonstrative speech: The objective is to demonstrate how to do something through clear step-by-step explanations and visual aids if needed. The focus is on showing the audience how rather than just telling them.
The main modes of speech delivery are:
