Against the house-of-mirrors view of interdisciplinarity
Against the house-of-mirrors view of interdisciplinarityClement Levallois
?
A persistent view of the relationships between economics and biology is that "history repeats itself" again and again.
This presentation challenges this view by insisting on the variability of the different episodes of this relationship. And I suggest that when there is indeed similarities, they should be accounted for, not judged as natural.Social Inequality from Preindustrial to Industrial Society
Social Inequality from Preindustrial to Industrial Societyjdubrow2000

The document discusses the transition from preindustrial to industrial societies and the role of material and ideological conditions in driving social change and stratification. It outlines the key components of material infrastructure like technology, economy and ecology. It also discusses how societies evolved from hunter-gatherers to agrarian societies with the development of agriculture and surplus production, leading to social stratification. The emergence of complex institutions, population growth and slavery were consequences of the Neolithic Revolution that enabled social hierarchies to form.Winter insights q4 2013

This document discusses several theories of intelligence, including Sternberg's triarchic theory and Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences. Sternberg's theory proposes three elements of intelligence: componential, experiential, and contextual. Componential includes metacomponents, performance components, and knowledge acquisition components. Experiential involves how experiences increase our ability to deal with novel tasks. Contextual specifies how components are applied to cope with the external world. Gardner's theory identifies nine types of intelligence: linguistic, logical-mathematical, musical, bodily-kinesthetic, visual-spatial, interpersonal, intrapersonal, naturalist, and existential. The document also discusses intelligence quotient (IQ) scores

This document discusses five keys to facilitating learning:
1. Set the learning environment by preparing the room with color, music, and arranging materials to get learners' attention.
2. Activate prior learning by connecting new information to what learners already know to help them more easily grasp new concepts.
3. Use a variety of approaches like visual, auditory, and kinesthetic methods to give learners multiple chances to understand through their preferred learning styles.
4. Engage learners in dialogue to give new information personal meaning and ground it in their own experiences.
5. Reinforce learning through activities that help learners consolidate what they learned and project into the future.Impact of the slave trade on africa
Impact of the slave trade on africaSicourney Jackson
?
The slave trade had devastating impacts on Africa. It caused a massive decrease in the African population, with an estimated 50 million Africans captured and sold. Societies were disrupted as tribal wars increased to capture more slaves and gender imbalance resulted from preferential capture of young men. Cities were destroyed as populations fled to avoid capture, destroying industries like mining and disrupting agriculture. The economies of African nations became dominated by slaving and goods imported from Europe.Motivational & emotional influences of learning alladin daliva

The document discusses motivation and its importance in directing behavior toward achieving goals. It defines motivation as an internal drive that energizes and maintains goal-oriented behavior. Motivation comes from interests, beliefs, emotions, and desires to satisfy needs. Effective learning depends on maintaining student interest and motivation, which can be influenced by their self-confidence, perception of a subject's usefulness, and desires to achieve. Having intrinsic goals enhances motivation more than relying on external pressures. The document suggests motivation is key to success even when other skills are present.5. distinction of cognitive & metacognitive learning strategies 6. establishi...

This document discusses cognitive and metacognitive learning strategies. It defines cognitive strategies as general thinking methods that improve learning across subjects, such as rehearsal, elaboration, organization, reading comprehension, and general problem solving strategies. Metacognitive strategies facilitate "learning how to learn" through asking questions, finding mentors/groups, self-explanation, and being okay with errors. The document advocates establishing a metacognitive environment where teachers help students become aware of their own thinking through problem solving activities and establishing process goals.The History of Information Technology

This document summarizes a paper presented by Jeff Koloze on perceptions of abortion in recent humanities scholarship. Koloze reviewed publications since 2000 covering abortion, infanticide, and euthanasia to understand how these "right-to-life issues" are discussed. He found that scholarship rarely addressed the international effects of abortion and often omitted discussion of abortion even when it seemed relevant to the topic. Koloze contacted some authors to confirm whether their works actually discussed abortion. He will analyze and critique the scholarship in terms of whether it supports or opposes right-to-life perspectives.Marxism and sons and lovers

This document summarizes a research paper that applies a Marxist lens to analyze D.H. Lawrence's novel Sons and Lovers. It begins by introducing Marxism as both a philosophical theory and school of literary criticism. Key Marxist concepts discussed include the base-superstructure model, how the economic base determines social classes and ideology, and how Marxists view art and literature as reflecting the dominant ideology. The paper then examines how themes and forces in Sons and Lovers are shaped by materialistic and capitalist forces in English society at the time, and how characters are motivated by their social class and economic needs within this system.sociology

This passage discusses the nature of reality through an examination of how the Azande people of Africa understand their oracles. It makes three key points:
1. The Azande's belief in their oracles is an "incorrigible proposition" that is assumed to be true regardless of any contradictory experiences, similar to mathematical axioms.
2. Their reality is constructed through ritual practices that transform tree bark into a vessel for the oracle's messages. Contradictions only exist from an outside Western scientific perspective, not from within their own reality.
3. When contradictions occur, the Azande employ "secondary elaborations of belief" to explain them while still maintaining the absolute reality of their orEconomics

Karl Marx was a famous 19th century economist who is known for establishing theories of capitalism and socialism. Some of his most important works included the Communist Manifesto and Das Kapital. In Das Kapital, he argued that capitalism contained internal contradictions that would eventually cause its collapse, to be replaced by a system of Marxist socialism. Amartya Sen is a Nobel Prize winning economist who made important contributions to welfare economics and developed more sophisticated measures of poverty. He also studied famines and argued they were sometimes caused not by lack of food but by declines in income that prevented certain groups from being able to afford food.Theories for social epidemiology in the 21st century: an ecosocial perspective

This document discusses the history and development of theories in social epidemiology. It notes that while disparities in health have long been observed between social groups, explaining the causes has involved ongoing debates between individual-level versus societal-level factors. The term "social epidemiology" began to be used in the mid-20th century to describe the study of social determinants of disease. Early theories focused on host-agent-environment models but lacked accounting for social agency and distinctions between the natural and social environment. The document argues for advancing theories in the 21st century that can better explain social inequalities in health and hold social institutions accountable.Theories for social epidemiologu in the 21st century an ecosocial perspective

This document summarizes and critiques the dominant medicalized view of suicide that emerged in the 19th century and continues today. It discusses how doctors like Forbes Winslow and Jean-Etienne Esquirol positioned suicide as a medical issue caused by internal pathology. This involved reinterpreting historical figures like Cato as mentally ill. The author argues this view has come to dominate conceptualizations and prevention efforts, individualizing and decontextualizing suicide, though some alternatives remain.understanding sociology

This document summarizes a master's thesis examination on contemporary social theory. It discusses several theorists who analyzed changes in social structure from modernity to post-modernity. Pitirim Sorokin viewed social change as either caused by external forces or as inherent to a society's existence. Jrgen Habermas gave examples of 20th century macro-level social changes, including unprecedented population growth and rapid shifts in employment from agriculture to industry to services. The document analyzes how these theorists viewed changes in social structures and their effects on individuals and society.Positism

Herbert Spencer was an English philosopher who developed the theory of social Darwinism, arguing that societies evolve similarly to biological organisms through a process of complexification. He believed that societies progress from simple, militaristic forms to more advanced, industrial forms characterized by voluntary cooperation. Spencer saw individualism as key, believing that order in society is achieved through individuals pursuing their self-interest without central planning. While Spencer published his evolutionary ideas before Darwin, he later incorporated Darwin's theory of natural selection to argue that competition between individuals and societies drives social progress, with the fittest equipped to survive. His philosophy provided a justification for laissez-faire capitalism and opposition to state intervention.Early anthropologist

This document summarizes the emergence and development of social epidemiology as a field. It discusses:
1) How social epidemiology gained its name in the mid-20th century through works examining relationships between health and factors like residential segregation.
2) The three main theories currently used in social epidemiology - psychosocial theory, social production of disease theory, and ecosocial theory - which seek to explain social inequalities in health.
3) How while theories are key to shaping research and debates, literature explicitly discussing theoretical frameworks in social epidemiology remains limited. There is still room for developing more useful theories for the 21st century.Recently uploaded (20)

Validity is an important characteristic of a test. A test having low validity is of little use. Validity is the accuracy with which a test measures whatever it is supposed to measure. Validity can be low, moderate or high. There are many factors which affect the validity of a test. If these factors are controlled, then the validity of the test can be maintained to a high level. In the power point presentation, factors affecting validity are discussed with the help of concrete examples.Unit 1 Computer Hardware for Educational Computing.pptx
