    This document contains information about a lesson on social sciences. It includes three activities: 1) answering questions about an editorial cartoon depicting social inequality, 2) creating a graphic organizer illustrating sociological theories, and 3) writing a reflection on how sociological concepts can provide insights into status symbols, social media, and human rights issues. The editorial cartoon uses the social conflict theory to show two different worlds of privilege and non-privilege.

    LESSON 4-WEEK 4

    I. COURSE NAME: DISCIPLINES AND IDEAS IN THE SOCIAL SCIENCES

    Activity 1: Editorial Cartooning of Social Issue

    Answer the following questions:


    1.What issue is being depicted in this editorial cartoon?
    The issue that is being depicted in this editorial cartoon by Max Santiago is the
    “different world of privilege people”. As I saw in this editorial cartoon, it portrayed a
    major social issue of people coming from two different worlds. This means that not
    everyone has the same experience. Every individual’s situation is different from what we
    imagined. Privilege people enjoy their life without thinking about anyone as long as
    people get what they want and only wish for their good. That resulted in conflict
    between the inequality of each group.
    2. By the looks of it, what sociological lens was used to present the issue? What specific concept/s
    are evident?
    The social-conflict theory was presented to the issue. It showed society with inequality
    relations. The specific concept is evident by groups of people with unequal resources
    that are resulted in constant conflict between results in social change.
    3.What insights have you come across with this editorial cartoon considering your knowledge.
    The insights I come across with this editorial cartoon are differentiating the world of
    everyone. I came to realize that I should be satisfied and happier with the privilege I
    had with my life because many people are struggling without me being aware. This
    editorial cartoon taught me a lot of lessons about the social issues that happened in
    real-life situations.

    Activity 3: Reflection Paper


    Direction: Think about the following status symbols, social media, and human rights violation. How
    do you perceive these constructs? Write your insights on the importance of understanding the basic
    principles of the dominant sociological theories in understanding yourself and the society.
    After studying the basic principles of the dominant sociological theories, I get to know
    the importance of them and how to understand myself more and the society around me.
    I am determined to comprehend and embrace fundamental sociological problems,
    concepts, and solutions better. Sociological theories taught me to be aware of the key
    concepts, concerns, and ideas within society. I can understand the significant role of
    sociological theories in my personal experience and apply them to my future actions.
