14.1- Introduction to Sociology/Gender

1) Summarization

Gender refers to the social, cultural, and psychological differences between males and females. While sex refers to biological differences such as genitalia and hormones, gender is a social construct with gender roles, expectations, and stereotypes varying across cultures and time periods. Efforts to promote gender equality include challenging gender norms, breaking down barriers to education and career opportunities, and promoting diversity and inclusivity.

2) What was interesting/what did you learn?

Through studying gender, I develop a greater understanding of social norms, power structures, and biases that impact society. also learn about opportunities to advocate for gender equity and work towards creating a more inclusive world.

3) Discussion points

How can we work towards creating a world where everyone, regardless of gender, has access to equal opportunities and resources?

Science & Futurism with Isaac 2_extra credit

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aRStfFOwcsM The video "What If The Dinosaurs Hadn't Died Off?" by AlternateHistoryHub explores a fascinating hypothetical scenario: what the world might look like if the dinosaurs had survived the catastrophic events that led to their extinction 66 million years ago. The video delves into various aspects of this alternate history, examining the potential impact on mammalian evolution, human development, and the planet's ecosystems. The video begins with a brief overview of the Cretaceous-Paleogene extinction event, which wiped out the dinosaurs and allowed mammals to become the dominant life forms on Earth. It then explores the possible consequences if this event had never occurred. The narrative is engaging, combining scientific knowledge with imaginative speculation to paint a vivid picture of an alternate Earth. One of the most intriguing points discussed is how the survival of dinosaurs might have affected mammalian evolution. Witho...

Religion can be broadly defined as a system of beliefs, values and practices that provide individuals with a sense of meaning and purpose in their lives.

W5.2 Introduction to Sociology/Religion

 1. Summarize  Religion is divided into sacred and blasphemy.  Religion can be divided into churches, denominations, and sects. There are cases of pseudo. Religion can also be used as a tool to justify any act. It is possible to justify bad behavior. Religion has the potential to become secular. Already in decline and secularization in the United States. 2. Mention new, learned, or my thought     I think the pseudo-problem in religious matters is serious at the moment. It is easy to see people approaching religiously just by walking around the streets. You can tell just by looking at the 'JMS' and 'AGAYA' cases  that the latest incident.  My friends also said that there were clubs in their university for pseudo missionary purposes.  Religion touches the conscious part of a person and teaches them about attitudes and thoughts in life. If such teaching was pseudo-instruction, not religious, I think it would have a great negative effect on a person's...
