Within Chapter 8 there is a section discussing Robert Merton's Strain Theory of Deviance. This theory basically argues that when individuals feel pressure and/or strain to attain certain cultural goals they may resort to different forms of deviance to alleviate the pressure and achieve specific social goals. Utilizing Merton's theory identify you will need to identify an individual or social group that is well known in the public sphere. You will be utilizing one of his subcategories of deviant behavior (innovator, ritualist, rebel, or retreatist). You will need to explain and specify which category this individual best fits into and why using their own behavior and track record as your examples. For example, you may choose a professional athlete (Lebron James), artist(?) (Justin Bieber), or social group such as the Amish. Please be specific with the examples and how they fit into the category. .

MAKING SENSE OF ABSTRACT THEORIES
Sociological theories are the core and underlying strength of the discipline. They guide
researchers in their studies; they also guide practitioners in their intervention strategies.
And they will provide you with a basic understanding of how to see the larger social picture
in your own personal life. A sociological theory is a set of interrelated concepts used to
describe, explain, and predict how society and its parts are related to each other. Let’s use
binoculars as a metaphor to illustrate the usefulness of a theory. Binoculars serve to
magnify, enlarge, clarify, and expand our view of the thing we are looking at. Unlike
binoculars, you can’t see or touch a theory, but it is a framework to help you “see” the
world sociologically. Some things you want to look at need 20x80 strength binoculars
while you might see other things better with 8x40 or 10x30 lenses. It’s the same with
society. Some things need the lens of Conflict Theory, while others need a Structural
Functionalist or Symbolic Interactionist lenses. Some social phenomena can be viewed
using each of the three frameworks, although each will give you a slightly different view of
the topic under investigation.
Theories are sets of interrelated concepts and ideas that have been scientifically tested and
combined to magnify, enlarge, clarify, and expand our understanding of people, their
behaviors, and their societies. Without theories, science would be a futile exercise in
statistics. In the diagram below, you can see the process by which a theory leads
sociologists to perform a certain type of study with certain types of questions that can test
the assumptions of the theory. Once the study is administered, the findings and
generalizations can be considered to see if they support the theory. If they do, similar
studies will be performed to repeat and fine-tune the process. If the findings and
generalizations do not support the theory, the sociologist rethinks and revisits the
assumptions they made.
Here’s a real-life scientific example: In the 1960s, two researchers named Cumming and
Henry studied the processes of aging. They devised a theory on aging that had assumptions
built into it. These were, simply put, that all elderly people realize the inevitability of death
and begin to systematically disengage from their previous youthful roles while at the same
time society prepares to disengage from them.1 Cumming and Henry tested their theory on
a large number of elderly persons. Findings and generalization consistently yielded a “no”

Through the advent of social media, a thing known as "slactivism" has arisen. This is literally activism through social media and, despite such a negative label, researchers are finding that this actually works! Activism through the medium of social media is having a significant impact. This is just ONE example of many of not only a "mass behavior" but can also fit into all 4 categories of social movements. The individuals involved in this mass behavior/social behavior could easily be examined within the lens of the "contagion theory" as well as the "emergent-norm theory."
Go check out whatever form of Social Media/ Media you are most on, (facebook, instagram, tumblr, twitter, reddit, youtube etc. ) Look for an example of "slactivism" from people/influencers that you follow that is promoting a specific type of social movement. Discuss their post here by answering the following questions (if you feel comfortable you can post your example here as well but it is not required.)

Topic 9: Stratification—Functionalist and Conflict Theories
The word stratification is used a lot in the world of social scientists. It is a concept that rivals socialization in terms of importance; in fact, some consider it a major factor in how we learn to relate to the world.
So what does it mean? It is an intimidating word, but if you break it down to it’s root you find the word ‘strata’, and strata means one in a series of layers. If you look at where this root appears in other words related to the physical world, substratum meaning the underlying layers of the earth; stratosphere meaning the layers of the atmosphere, you can see the concept of layering quite clearly.
But what could this word mean in the social world? Think about it. How do we layer people within the social world?
The sociological explanation of stratification refers to a system or institutional patterns which society uses to rank groups of people. A person is typically placed within the different layers or groups in accordance to their access to valued and scarce resources.
Now that we have the sociological definition, lets move back to the question I asked a before—How do we layer or group or rank people in the social world? See how many ways you can list. The top four ways people are ranked in society are as follows; economic, religious, race/ethnicity and gender.
Which do you think is the most important way we categorize people? Which controls most areas of your life? Typically in American society we see economic class as the most significant, but this is open for discussion. The importance of these rankings varies depending on the type of society you are born into. We for the most part have been born or live in a capitalistic class based society—So it makes sense that economic class would be the most important determinate of strata placement.
Look again to the four main means of dividing or ranking people (religion, race/ethnicity, economic, gender). How many of these things can we change in our society? For the most part only two; religion and economic class. (I know with enough money the medical world can alter genders and skin tone, but no matter what procedures you have done legally your gender and race/ethnicity will remain the same.)
The categories that we have no control over and things we cannot change are part of what sociologists call an ascribed status. An ascribed status is one’s position in society is determined by something an individual has no control over and cannot change; like race and gender.
Whereas the categories that we have control over and can in some way change are part of what sociologists call an achieved status. An achieved status means that there are elements within a persons control that an individual can alter to alter their social ranking within the stratification system.
These two types of status’s are related directly to the two types of societies(open and closed societies), and the type of soci.
Answer all questions.Define strain theory Why is it a structu.docx
Answer all questions.
Define strain theory? Why is it a structural issue?
Hint
: So, people are taught to want things via culture/mass media, yes! But, how do they get things (materialism)? What happens to people who want things but there is no ladder to reach things. What do they do? They want the goals, the cars, money, etc., they accept the goals, but they have to “innovate” that is, go around the ladder because there is no ladder, to reach the goals. And, others have many advantages to get things, so for them, not as much structural strain? The ladder is already there for them. Money, social class, inheritance, is there so, no need to go around the ladder.
Again, the strain comes from the culture putting it out there to want things, but,
no way
to get there for many. Except go around the system
In what ways does do strain theories explain the behavior of street gangs?
Which version of strain theories would best explain the overrepresentation of of homicides in inner-city areas?
According to general strain theory , what factors would likely lead to criminal behavior?
According to Robert K. Merton there are 5 individual modes of adaptation to structural stress, not all of them deviant. People respond to this structural stress in different ways. Explain in detail each of these 5 individual modes of adaptation.
DO NOT
merely list these modes, but
EXPLAIN EACH ONE
.
Thinking about your own life, what sorts of negative strains have you experiences? How did you deal with them? (negative strain=negative relationships one cannot escape from. Such as when adolescents cannot leave a relationship if they experiences them as “noxious.” And, if they try to escape from a bad situation they may then be arrested for truancy or running away)
Below are
some ideas
to think about
concerning
strain theory
......for example:
K. Cohen
1 Lower class Americans embrace the middle class ethic
2 Socialization of the lower class hinders their ability to compete
3 Decreased ability to compete produces strain
4 Increased strain produces identification with delinquent subculture
5
The delinquent subculture
Identification with delinquent subculture produces delinquent behavior
Cloward and Ohlin
Success ethic is a prized possession of all Americans
Opportunities for success are not distributed equally through the class structure
Blocked opportunities produce strain
Strain produces delinquent subcultures
1) criminal subculture
2) conflict subculture
3) retreatist subculture
Delinquent subcultures produce delinquent behavior?
Impact on social policy?
1) Mobilization for Youth
2) War on Poverty (heroic theme)
Adequacy of Strain Theory- conceptually
determinism
class
American dream
school failure
sense of strain
delinquent subculture

Introduction to SociologyGUIDELINES FOR PAPER ONEPaper On.docx
Introduction to Sociology
GUIDELINES FOR PAPER ONE
Paper One will consist of two parts. PART I should be a contrast/comparison of each of the three major sociological perspectives discussed in class. Please compare/contrast each of the three on the basis of the image of society offered by each, the image of social change, the fundamental elements and questions asked by sociologists within each perspective. Also mention the major classic theorists and some of their contributions. Please discuss how each of the perspectives reflects the time and place in which the theorists were writing, putting their ideas into a social and historical context.
PART II will consist of the APPLICATION part of the paper. Choose some social phenomena (marriage, homelessness, crime , video games--could be ANYTHING that relates to human behavior) and then describe how a sociologist from each of the three perspectives would go about studying the phenomena from that particular perspective. What sorts of questions might he or she ask? How would the phenomena be viewed, what aspects would the sociologist be interested in?
Papers should be 5 to 7 pages in length. You should refer to portions of the text, readings, and/or class notes when describing concepts (and be sure to include a reference page). Citation style may be APA, MLA, or any other format you are familiar with (or that is required for your particular major). Criteria for grading the papers are as follows:
1. Paper must be well written and well organized--it may be helpful to break it down into sections.
2. Responsiveness--don’t just strive to “fill pages”--make sure to respond to the requirements of the assignment, and you will easily have enough pages.
3. Creativity/originality--Expand your mind! Be creative in the examples you use, and/or in the way you apply the theories.
4. Use of text materials and class notes--Good papers will weave together the concepts in the books with “real life” examples. Again, have a reference page.
Three Theoretical Frameworks
Structural Functionalism, Conflict Theory, & Symbolic Interaction
I. STRUCTURAL FUNCTIONALISM
A MACRO level theory –Focuses on large scale structures and institutions
Views a “society” as a “whole” consisting of interdependent and interrelated “parts.” The parts serve “functions” for the benefit of the whole.
One could envision the “parts” of a society as the different social institutions, social classes, or social groups—or, we could even envision PEOPLE as the parts!
Structural functionalists are interested in how to maintain social ORDER and STABILITY.
Image of Society: A living ORGANISM, with each part of the organism fulfilling a vital function for the whole
Image of Social change: Social changes proceeds in a gradual, linear, adaptive fashion—EVOLUTIONARY!
Fundamental Elements: Society is based upon SHARED VALUES—when values begin to deteriorate, so does society!

that would best support the author’s thesis:
that the paradox of poverty in a wealthy America is because of “how we as society have tended to conceptualize the issue of poverty and based upon this thinking how we have acted (or better put, failed to act) toward the issue” (Rank 2011).
Notes:
First select the theory. Then give a brief (1-2 sentences) background of it/founder(s). Finally explain (a) how this theory would view the author’s thesis, and (b) why this is the best theory to use in this context.
The author suggests the need for three shifts (i.e., Individual; Structural; Moral) in how Americans think about poverty.
Next, sociologically analyze (2) the strengths and weaknesses of each shift separately.
Notes: to sociologically analyze means to objectively examine an idea in detail, discussing its essential elements so as to identify causes, key factors, and possible results
Finally,
as a responsible member of a democratic, civil society, use your critical thinking and analytical skills to present a specific program or policy that should be implemented to resolve and/or manage the issue of American poverty. Be specific regarding the role(s) of the suggested policy in mitigating the issue. Students are encouraged to support their argument with direct textual evidence and sociological insights (applicable terms and concepts learned over your semester of study).

Answer all questions.
Define strain theory? Why is it a structural issue?
Hint
: So, people are taught to want things via culture/mass media, yes! But, how do they get things (materialism)? What happens to people who want things but there is no ladder to reach things. What do they do? They want the goals, the cars, money, etc., they accept the goals, but they have to “innovate” that is, go around the ladder because there is no ladder, to reach the goals. And, others have many advantages to get things, so for them, not as much structural strain? The ladder is already there for them. Money, social class, inheritance, is there so, no need to go around the ladder.
Again, the strain comes from the culture putting it out there to want things, but,
no way
to get there for many. Except go around the system
In what ways does do strain theories explain the behavior of street gangs?
Which version of strain theories would best explain the overrepresentation of of homicides in inner-city areas?
According to general strain theory , what factors would likely lead to criminal behavior?
According to Robert K. Merton there are 5 individual modes of adaptation to structural stress, not all of them deviant. People respond to this structural stress in different ways. Explain in detail each of these 5 individual modes of adaptation.

Thinking about your own life, what sorts of negative strains have you experiences? How did you deal with them? (negative strain=negative relationships one cannot escape from. Such as when adolescents cannot leave a relationship if they experiences them as “noxious.” And, if they try to escape from a bad situation they may then be arrested for truancy or running away)
Below are
some ideas
to think about
concerning
strain theory
......for example:
K. Cohen
1 Lower class Americans embrace the middle class ethic
2 Socialization of the lower class hinders their ability to compete
3 Decreased ability to compete produces strain
4 Increased strain produces identification with delinquent subculture
5
The delinquent subculture
Identification with delinquent subculture produces delinquent behavior
Cloward and Ohlin
Success ethic is a prized possession of all Americans
Opportunities for success are not distributed equally through the class structure
Blocked opportunities produce strain
Strain produces delinquent subcultures
1) criminal subculture
2) conflict subculture
3) retreatist subculture
Delinquent subcultures produce delinquent behavior?
Impact on social policy?
1) Mobilization for Youth
2) War on Poverty (heroic theme)
Adequacy of Strain Theory- conceptually

Introduction to SociologyGUIDELINES FOR PAPER ONEPaper On.docx
Introduction to Sociology
GUIDELINES FOR PAPER ONE
Paper One will consist of two parts. PART I should be a contrast/comparison of each of the three major sociological perspectives discussed in class. Please compare/contrast each of the three on the basis of the image of society offered by each, the image of social change, the fundamental elements and questions asked by sociologists within each perspective. Also mention the major classic theorists and some of their contributions. Please discuss how each of the perspectives reflects the time and place in which the theorists were writing, putting their ideas into a social and historical context.
PART II will consist of the APPLICATION part of the paper. Choose some social phenomena (marriage, homelessness, crime , video games--could be ANYTHING that relates to human behavior) and then describe how a sociologist from each of the three perspectives would go about studying the phenomena from that particular perspective. What sorts of questions might he or she ask? How would the phenomena be viewed, what aspects would the sociologist be interested in?
Papers should be 5 to 7 pages in length. You should refer to portions of the text, readings, and/or class notes when describing concepts (and be sure to include a reference page). Citation style may be APA, MLA, or any other format you are familiar with (or that is required for your particular major). Criteria for grading the papers are as follows:
1. Paper must be well written and well organized--it may be helpful to break it down into sections.
2. Responsiveness--don’t just strive to “fill pages”--make sure to respond to the requirements of the assignment, and you will easily have enough pages.
3. Creativity/originality--Expand your mind! Be creative in the examples you use, and/or in the way you apply the theories.
4. Use of text materials and class notes--Good papers will weave together the concepts in the books with “real life” examples. Again, have a reference page.
Three Theoretical Frameworks
Structural Functionalism, Conflict Theory, & Symbolic Interaction
I. STRUCTURAL FUNCTIONALISM
A MACRO level theory –Focuses on large scale structures and institutions
Views a “society” as a “whole” consisting of interdependent and interrelated “parts.” The parts serve “functions” for the benefit of the whole.
One could envision the “parts” of a society as the different social institutions, social classes, or social groups—or, we could even envision PEOPLE as the parts!
Structural functionalists are interested in how to maintain social ORDER and STABILITY.
Image of Society: A living ORGANISM, with each part of the organism fulfilling a vital function for the whole
Image of Social change: Social changes proceeds in a gradual, linear, adaptive fashion—EVOLUTIONARY!
Fundamental Elements: Society is based upon SHARED VALUES—when values begin to deteriorate, so does society!

that would best support the author’s thesis:
that the paradox of poverty in a wealthy America is because of “how we as society have tended to conceptualize the issue of poverty and based upon this thinking how we have acted (or better put, failed to act) toward the issue” (Rank 2011).
Notes:
First select the theory. Then give a brief (1-2 sentences) background of it/founder(s). Finally explain (a) how this theory would view the author’s thesis, and (b) why this is the best theory to use in this context.
The author suggests the need for three shifts (i.e., Individual; Structural; Moral) in how Americans think about poverty.
Next, sociologically analyze (2) the strengths and weaknesses of each shift separately.
Notes: to sociologically analyze means to objectively examine an idea in detail, discussing its essential elements so as to identify causes, key factors, and possible results
Finally,
as a responsible member of a democratic, civil society, use your critical thinking and analytical skills to present a specific program or policy that should be implemented to resolve and/or manage the issue of American poverty.

Without having any background knowledge on the situation of Gove.docx
Without having any background knowledge on the situation of Governor Bob Riley and his efforts to implement a sweeping tax reform on the State of Alabama, there are some significant things that caught my attention within the video. The State of Alabama was already experiencing major deficit and a lower class population which was severely affected by the suffering education system in turn contributing to a population which would have difficulty moving up in class. It seems that there were not many options available to the State of Alabama; either a sweeping reform which would significantly increase taxes (though Riley assigned these hikes to the wealthy) or significant budget cuts which would affect some already suffering divisions funded by the budget.
In an effort to persuade the voters to support and vote yes for his reform, Bob Riley fell back on political jockeying. He used religion to encourage people to follow the plan he was pushing for. Within his political messages he stated the Christian way to handle the deficit was to tax the wealthy because his Testament reveals that the rich should take care of the less fortunate.
Is political jockeying an appropriate method in government? Should it be present in the development of state budgets, executive activity, or legislative activity? I think to an extent it may sometimes be acceptable. But the means that should be used to persuade voters on policies should be facts and statistical information which supports what will occur with a policy. And perhaps more of an explanation of a personal opinion. I think the efforts used in Riley’s scenario almost placed a guilt on others. The interesting thing about his political jockeying efforts is that the population that was being targeted to benefit the most were the ones who seem to have opposed his reform during the voting process.

Gapenski, L. C., & Pink, G. H. (2015). Understanding healthcare financial management (7th ed.). Chicago: Association of University Programs in Health Administration and Health Administration Press. ISBN 9781567937060.:
Financial View
· The financial view is held by those who normally handle finance on a daily basis, such as auditors, accountants, and financial analysts.
· Their strength lies in their ability to interpret data and spot problems before they become too critical.
· One of the key weaknesses is that these individuals are often very good with the minute details but often have a difficult time with the big picture.
Process View
· The process view is normally held by those individuals who are responsible for the financial systems and typically comprise the information technology departments.
· Their strength is the ability to take raw data and turn it into meaningful reports.
· Their weakness lies in not having all information at once. Since there are normally multiple individuals working in this department, each individual may have various pieces of the financial puzzle, but few have the ability to see it all.
Clinical View
· The clinical view is normally held by those who are responsible for the day to day interactions of the patients and are usually the licensed healthcare professionals.
· Their strength lies in their desire to ensure the best possible outcome for the patient and they generally serve as the patients’ advocate.
· Their weakness may actually be the same as their strength. Many clinical individuals want to provide the best for their patients, regardless of cost. Therefore, they may have a difficult time balancing the needs of the patients with the needs of the organization.
There are strengths and weaknesses to each viewpoint. Perhaps the ideal viewpoint would be where these three perspectives overlap. However, it is certainly not an easy task. Being able to see through each one of these lenses requires that the individual manager be in constant communication with other departments. While it may not be possible to fully integrate all three perspectives, being aware of them better prepares the manager to meet both patient and organizational objectives.

Within the Unit I Podcast, Chantell, Dayna, and Dr. Rogers discuss how technological improvements have led to an increase in remote workers and ways to connect with remote team members. Do you believe leaders can use the same strategies to connect with remote workers as they would with an onsite team? Why, or why not?
ANSWER THE ABOVE QUESTION AND REPLY TO MY CLASSMATE RESPONSE TO THE ABOVE QUESTIONS AND EXPLAIN WHY YOU AGREE? (A MINIMUM OF 125 WORDS or MORE)
CLASSMATE’S POST
In the podcast discussion about remote workers, the important points I understood was building a trustful and dependable relationship with the remote workers. Making a connection and continuing that connection at all times. I believe with the technology available today, teleconferencing, videoconferencing and real-time communications by phone, that leadership can build as meaningful a relationship with remote workers as with in house workers. Remote workers want their tasks communicated well to them and they want the tools they need to get their jobs done. They also want to know that their contribution to the organization is just as important as others. I have been in the position of a remote worker and understand the possible challenges. I appreciated leaders that would not only ask questions about the operational efforts but also about the personal and emotional needs of the remote workers. The success of the organization is dependent on all team members being connected and pulling together towards the same goal of exceeding the strategic vision of the business.

Within the last several years, Adobe Flash became the dominant forma.docx
Within the last several years, Adobe Flash became the dominant format for embedding video on the Web because Adobe Flash Player was free and available on a variety of different platforms and operating systems. However in April 2010, Steve Jobs, CEO of Apple, explained that Apple would not support Flash on its mobile devices, including the iPhone, iPod, and iPad. Among the reasons cited, Jobs included his concerns that a) Flash was proprietary, a fact that inhibits the future development of multimedia on the Web; b) Flash was not secure or reliable and adversely affects the performance of mobile devices; c) Flash was a significant drain on battery life; and d) Flash was designed for PCs using a mouse interface and could not be adapted to the touch interface found on mobile devices. Rather than relying on Flash, Jobs advocated the continuing development of open standards for Web video including the rapid adoption of HTML5.
However, thousands of Web sites had made considerable investments in Flash and were not happy with the prospect of significantly retooling their sites. In response, in March 2011, Adobe released a tool to convert Flash files to HTML5-compatible formats so they run on Apple's mobile devices. Also, Flash is supported on several mobile operating systems, such as the Android platform for mobile devices.
Users running older browsers will not be able to use HTML5 video; so for complete cross-browser support, you'll make a Flash version of the
Royal Wedding
clip available to users. Maxine has created an Adobe Flash Player file named
rwdance.swf
containing both the video clip and the controls to run it.
Does Jobs have a point? Is it better for web developers to rely on one proprietary means of displaying video? Is it best to have a standard? If so, how should a standard be developed? If not, what's better about varied means?

Within Sociology as well as in social psychology, it is noted th.docx
Within Sociology as well as in social psychology, it is noted that an in-group basically is a social group whereby an individual gets to identify themselves as a member psychologically. On the other hand, an Out-group basically is defined as a social group which a person is not able to identify with. For instance, individuals are in a position of identifying themselves with same peer group, a political party, community, family, religion, sports team nation or even gender. It is evident that with the membership that is psychological regarding social groups in addition to classifications happens to be linked to a phenomenon that is of a wide range. There is the presence of stereotypes within interactions in between various social groups in addition to gender stereotypes being considered as prevalent. (Buss, 2015).
In-group
It is known that the automatic in-group bias of women is evidently stronger as compared to that of men. This is because only women are in a position of showing balance that is cognitive across in-group identity, self-esteem as well as bias. This is an indication that men do not have any mechanism in place for bolstering preference for own group automatically. There is bias that is pro-female to a point the individuals tend to favor their own mothers as compared to their fathers, there is also the association of the gender that is male with violence which is an indication that bonding that is maternal as well as intimidation of male have an influence on the gender attitudes. (De La Cerda and Warnell, 2020).
Out-group
Additionally, within in-group bias as well as Out-group bias, it happens that the men who are experiences sexually, have an attitude that is more positive in addition to favoring women implicitly. In addition, through the adoption of an approach that is evolutionary to the race bias psychology, it is possible to posit that conflict that is between intergroup which has been perpetrated by aggressors who are men all through the evolutionary history of human, has played a role in shaping the modern types psychology in relation to Out-group bias whereby, the psychology is a reflection of the unique adaptive challenges differing in between women as well as men when trying to cope with the aggressors who are male from the out-groups.
In conclusion there tends to be very minimal differences in between women as well as men as the conformity they tend to exhibit, in addition, these differences are said to be impacted by the social circumstances where the conformity happens to take place through the differences in gender. On an average basis, women in addition to men have levels that are different in relation to self-concern in addition to different concern. Men basically on averagely, are said to have more focus on their appearance of having a status that is high in addition to having the capacity to illustrate the status through independent acting from other people’s perceptions.

With the rapid development of the Internet, a big data era chara.docx
With the rapid development of the Internet, a big data era characterized by information explosion is coming. Public security relies on predictive policing to improve its work efficiency. Predictive policing based on large data analysis, it predicts which area of a city is most likely to occurs crimes and where criminals are most likely to be found. Privacy and civil rights must be seriously considered the problems of predictive policing, especially those who are predicted as offenders or victims. In the fiction short story “The Minority Report” by Philip K. Dick, describing Washington in 2054, the judicial system has been able to predict crime through psychological technology, system helps arrest the before he commits the crime. Dick shows his concern about predictive policing, which has been consistently developed; however, the main problem with predictive policing is its reliability. Although this is only a science fiction vision of the future, PredPol has made it a reality to some extent. Recently, the Los Angeles Police Department announced an expansion of the use of crime prediction software to speculate when and where crime is most likely to occur. Dick’s concern supports modern criticism of predictive policing and technology that crime prediction models are based on flawed statistics that reflect inherent prejudices in the criminal justice system.
Dick’s concern about predictive policing were that it is not accurate and contain lots of flaw. John Anderton, one of the elites of the pre-crime team, was accused of murdering a man he didn't know. In the process of his death and pursuit, Anderton learned that it was the three “PreCogs” who had the power to decide whether a person's guilt was ultimately established. If two of them are found guilty and the other disagrees, the last one is in the minority, whose opinion is called Minority Report. In story, Anderton states, "If the system can survive only by imprisoning innocent people, then it deserves to be destroyed. My personal safety is important because I'm a human being. And furthermore-"(Anderton, 114) By using the word “innocent,” Dick shows the potential unreliability of the predict technology. After reconsidered the meaning of pre-crime system, Anderton realized that what he has believed was successful is all built on the suffering of the people and threatening their lives. Dick emphasizes that the predictive technology should seek a balance between protecting individual privacy and safety. This action makes the argument of whether the society should trust the predictive policing system. In the end, Anderton did not kill the person who appeared in the Precogs’ prediction. However, the matter is that it's not possible to penalize someone before he commits a criminal offense simply because he's judged to own a motive.
The not accuracy and flaws contain in predictive policing that Dick’s concern has still value in the modern society… （missing second part of the prompt which is Analyze.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...
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.pdf
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.

Within Chapter 8 there is a section discussing Robert Mertons Strai.docx
- 1. Within Chapter 8 there is a section discussing Robert Merton's Strain Theory of Deviance. This theory basically argues that when individuals feel pressure and/or strain to attain certain cultural goals they may resort to different forms of deviance to alleviate the pressure and achieve specific social goals. Utilizing Merton's theory identify you will need to identify an individual or social group that is well known in the public sphere. You will be utilizing one of his subcategories of deviant behavior (innovator, ritualist, rebel, or retreatist). You will need to explain and specify which category this individual best fits into and why using their own behavior and track record as your examples. For example, you may choose a professional athlete (Lebron James), artist(?) (Justin Bieber), or social group such as the Amish. Please be specific with the examples and how they fit into the category.
