 1.summary


In this class, we learned how to find reliable materials such as research. Representative sites were Google Books and Google Scholar. On Google Books, you can find a variety of materials and freely read the pages you want. Books are limited in offline bookstores (whether borrowed by someone or not purchased from a bookstore), but not in Google Books. I can find the information I want at any time. Next, Google Scholar told me a special setting because there is a lot of unreliable information.

And he told us how to find the right materials. He also explained what makes materials good. Number one is ranking. Ranking is information that people find a lot, and it seems like a good way to increase reliability. Number two is to check publishers or authors. If you search publishers or authors and check if they are verified people, you will definitely increase reliability.


2.interesting 

After taking this class, I was interested in the information power of this modern society, which allows us to find information freely. We can find information anytime, anywhere with the Internet and smart devices. I search for information to do assignments, look at bus information when I go to school, and look for information when I don't know about people's minds. (Love is too difficult!) This information society certainly gives us a lot of convenience. Did people in the past know that such a society would come? Maybe the modern information society did not come because they wanted to acquire such information quickly? It is very interesting fact.


3.discussion


In the information society, we definitely get a lot of information and a convenience in our lives. Work, exercise, daily life, food, home, etc. (Maybe every part of our lives) Maybe we can't live without information anymore. So we have to judge and discuss the reliable information out of all this information. What happens if we trust any information unconditionally? We will eat unhealthy food and lose a lot of money, and our lives can be ruined in the end. Here's the solution I think. First, as the professor said in class, 'Is it a proven publisher that produced the material?' Second, we have to contact a variety of information. If you look for various information on various topics, you will find something in common. That's the key point. (If you mention it in various articles, it increases reliability!)
We have access to information every day, but the important thing is how to judge that information.

Introduction to the blog

March 03, 2024
This blog is a digital forum where students from Spring 2024 class in Invitation to Sociology at the Hanyang University in Korea will discuss their weekly readings and activities. Each week you are expected to post a blog post on at least 3 pages worth of the readings assigned for next week on our blog (here)  and make a comment on another student's post. As you are expected to do the assigned readings FOR the lectures they are assigned to, you are expected to post your blog and comments BEFORE that lecture. Deadline: Saturday midnight, for main blog posts and Sunday, midnight for comments. Exception: blog posts for the first week can be posted during the first week of class as if they were for the second week. An ideal commentary should be about a third of a page in length (~200 words), divided into three clearly labeled sections in which you: 1) summarize in your own words of materials you read; 2) mention any new, interesting, or unusual items learned; 3) identify at least one q

  1) Summary Humans survive by learning the culture of the groups they belong to through social experiences. Throughout their entire lives, individuals undergo a process called socialization, which significantly influences their beliefs and behaviors. This applies not only to children but also to adults. Through socialization, individuals learn and develop beliefs and behaviors considered moral within their affiliated society, shaping their own values accordingly. Primary socialization occurs as children are influenced by their immediate family and friends. If they are exposed to discriminatory views about certain groups, the child may develop discriminatory attitudes towards those groups and believe that such behavior is acceptable. Secondary socialization occurs within larger society. Typically experienced during adolescence or adulthood when individuals encounter new environments and societies, secondary socialization is encountered. For example, in school, unlike at home, there are

1.

1.Summary Terrorism is a violent act of achieving political, religious, and ideological goals through fear, which leaves deep scars and fears in the hearts of the people. Terrorists try to achieve their goals through physical violence, explosives, kidnapping, and assassination, and are carried out to urge political change or to achieve certain political goals. The core goal of terrorism is to create widespread fear and anxiety beyond direct damage. Various forms of terrorism greatly affect the minds of the people. Political terrorism is carried out with the aim of overthrowing a government or political system, and the people experience political anxiety and confusion. Religious terrorism is carried out to achieve religious goals, often amplifying conflicts and mistrust between religions, leading to social division. Ethnic terrorism is carried out by groups seeking national self-determination or independence, and people feel anxious amid conflicts and clashes between peoples. Ideologica...

1.Summary The key point of today's class was the male-female gap. There are several differences between what men and women want, which are influenced by biological, psychological, and sociocultural factors. Of course, these differences are generalized, and the individual differences are even greater. In general, women tend to prefer more stable and safe environments. This is also explained by evolutionary psychology, as stability and safety play an important role in terms of survival and reproduction. Men, on the other hand, tend to prefer adventure and challenge. This may biologically be related to the influence of testosterone, a male hormone. Women tend to value more relationship building and communication. This stems from the desire to build and maintain social networks through intimacy. Men often value achievement and goal achievement, which can act as an important factor in survival and reproduction. Psychologically, women are also better at expressing their emotions and read...

1.Summary The key points of today's class were social class and inequality. Social class is a way to group people according to their economic and social positions. In general, people are classified into upper, middle, and lower classes considering factors such as income, education level, occupation, and social status, the professor said. This stratification will be related to the imbalance of resources and opportunities within society (Roles, who I learned in high school, comes to mind:() The upper class is mainly composed of high-income and wealth owners. It usually includes merchants, entrepreneurs, and high-ranking government officials. They are often socially influential and enjoy a high-end lifestyle, and try to maintain wealth through inheritance and inheritance to maintain their wealth and deliver it to their children. The middle class is usually made up of workers, middle managers, and experts. They maintain a relatively stable income and life, and can often develop profess...
