The Role Of Socialization And Its Effect On Society

The school is the secondary agent of socialisation that children introduced to throughout growing up. School socialises children in many different ways. Children in this period of socialisation (The School) learn to become a productive member of the society, formal set of skills and knowledge such as writing, reading and maths, and strength their socials abilities by interacting with colleagues and schoolteachers. But mainly children learn that in society everyone’s equal regardless of how special they’re in their families. (Barkan 2012, p. 127)

1) What is the belief/feeling you are exploring? Is it about your own group or another group? • The belief of exploration is that “Americans don’t understand what its like being an immigrant” living in the United States of America. Over the years, a transparent glass has stood as a barrier between the two groups of people.

Individuals go through many experiences in life, and through their experiences they learn about the world, and how to react to the way it treats them within a society. A society has many expectations that mold people 's attitudes and moods. Throughout life, people are constantly changing themselves to fit into the society and once people fulfill its requirement to meet its expectations they can fit into the world, because the world is built on society’s expectations. The society can make people distant from themselves, when they are busy, and are always being pressured to complete a certain task on time. The society can impact people 's decisions by alternating their ways of treating them. They can be strict, and force people to put their ego aside, while in other situations they want the the people to only think about themselves, and what they want, and how they should value themselves more often, Especially children, who at a young age are trying to find their place in society. In “An army of one” by Jean Twenge, many children are surrounded by coloring books, and other activities that support their self-esteem, hoping to build a concrete understanding of the importance of self. In “Project Classroom Makeover” by Cathy Davidson, students are surrounded by rules, and regulation, that always lead to standardization, and a way for students to forget about themselves, but Davidson wants to change that with technology and restore the students’ self-esteems. The ability for an

The literature review addresses the following question: Does social class inequality affect higher education? The theoretical paradigm that is considered for this question is the Critical paradigm, in which is mainly qualitative and inductive. Critical paradigm is appropriate to answer this particular question because it involves inductive reasoning that begins from a specific observation to a more generalize. The paradigm also looks at how people are at a disadvantage when it comes to obtaining a higher education and incorporates observations and interviews that cultivate a conversation and the interviewee’s reflection. By interviewing people in different social classes and asking how it affects their education, researchers are able to identify the affects social class has on higher education.

In the article “Social Class and the Hidden Curriculum of Work” by JEAN ANYON, the author discusses that the lower class students will not taught as higher class students. The article illustrates that there are three different social class, the social class always been a problem in the schools.

Schools also have a hidden curriculum in which values and norms of behaviour are transmitted. For example, wearing a school uniform and keeping to a set timetable can all be seen as activities that encourage particular standards of behaviour which could be viewed as producing disciplined future workers. Therefore the hidden curriculum implies that pupils not only learn formal subjects such as English or physics but also receive hidden messages about their class, ethnicity and gender from their experience of schooling. Through the choice of teaching strategies and characteristics chosen to be employed by educational institutions it indirectly conveys to students the norms, values and expectations. This is what we refer to as the hidden curriculum. As we will later explore there are many that argue the hidden curriculum and processes within schools help to produce inequalities between children of different social classes. Whitty and Young (1976) view the

The author’s main purpose for this publication was to address the issue of social class markers in the university between working class students and their managerial or professional peers. This publication is informative and insightful because the author explains factors that separate working class students from their managerial and professional peers. He also highlighted that these factors are a function of the student's background and both greatly affect the chances for success in college. He then went on to explain what could be done to overcome this social class markers that inhibit their success at the college level. The author demonstrated an in-depth knowledge of this, as a professor coming from a working class background

First and Foremost, Social hierarchies in schools are the most important factor that the school board should be paying attention to. Students that are held back a year are made fun of by their peers and are made to appear as dumb or non-intelligent, when that is not the case. Children held back a grade level will be made fun of by their peers; as a result, they will have a lower self-esteem. As most people know, a pupil with low self-esteem performs secondary to their peers in the classroom.The Core Curriculum set by the school board is a non-reliable way of judging a pupil’s intelligence and work ethic.

The term socialization can be defined as the process in which individuals learn the behavioral patterns that are most likely accepted and tolerated in society. This process includes the learning values in which children are taught and they develop the social values of their parents or guardians just by observing them. Socialization occurs from the birth of the individual and continues throughout their life. Socialization is classified as one of the most important process in the family. Of all the major sociological perspectives, symbolic interactionism has probably developed the most detailed theory of socialization, Haralambos, Holborn. Sociology -

This labelling can impact boys as well as girls, Schultz (1983) argues that the expectations that teachers have of their students has an effect on the way that they interact with them and leads to a change in the student’s attitude to school and behaviour. This is supported by Harris (1991) who found that teachers drastically changed the way they responded to either a ‘smart’ or ‘less able’ child with either warm or cold feedback, the amount of material taught, and they gave fewer opportunities to ‘less able’ children to answer questions. This limits children with negative labels and means that they are less likely to grow academically and decreases the likelihood of their in-class participation.

He argued that working class youngsters find themselves stuck at the bottom of the stratification system sees their avenues for success blocked. This situation leads to status frustration, i.e., the process by which people feel dissatisfied when they aspire to a certain status (Macionis, 2008). Thus, students from deprived background often find school life an alienating and frustrating experience which focuses on middle class values and they resolve this frustration by turning to deviant means whereby the get praise and success among their peers rather than among

Socialization is an important process for children, who are socialized at home and in school. For children, the process teaches what will be expected from them as they grow up and become full members of society. It is also important for adults who join new social groups. Broadly defined, socialization is the process of transferring norms, values, beliefs, and behaviors to future group members. For a student, who pushes overseas education such a radical change of usual environment is a struggle of adaption of new culture and lifestyle around them. It describes the ways that people come to understand societal norms and expectations, to accept society’s beliefs, and to be aware of societal

Socialization is the process by which culture is learned; also called enculturation. During socialization individuals internalize a culture's social controls, along with values and norms about right and wrong. Socialization is a complex process that involves many individuals, groups, and social institutions.

Socialization is “the process whereby an individual acquires a personal identity and learns the norms, values, behavior and social skills that are essential appropriate to his or her social environment.” Socialization applies to our daily life and it’s the most important process of human society. Without socialization the human would not be able to take part in group life and develop human characteristics. The world wouldn’t never be organized and everyone would have their own ways of doing thing. The general rules that we follow every day tells us what we should and shouldn’t do and how we should interact in situations. There are always consequences if we violate the rules and everyone recognizes the rules. Individual personality is really important in socialization. As a child, we start to learn and imitate others behavior, and as we get older, we start to understand the social life and accustom to the environment we live in, which can have effects on our personality. Personality refers to the patterns of feeling, thought, and action that characterizes human beings. The experiences we go through in life can change our personality too. Socialization essentially represents the process of learning throughout the life course. The important theories of socialization are defined by Charles Horton Cooley, George Herbert Mead, Erving Goffman, Sigmund Freud and Judith R. Harris. Charles Cooley, George Mead and Erving Goffman mention the importance of the social side of
