Study Notes
Module 7: Social Construction of Identity
- Social identity is formed by societal norms, expectations, and cultural influences
- Examples include student identity with expectations of academic achievement, time management, and collaboration
- Social identity is both intersectional (e.g., race, gender, class) and fluid (changeable over time)
- Intersectionality highlights how different aspects of identity combine to create unique experiences
- Social identity fluidity implies that identities can shift and evolve based on new circumstances
Module 8: Evolved Traits
- Darwin proposed all living organisms share a common ancestor
- Diversity of life is due to natural selection acting on heritable traits
- Natural selection leads to organisms adapting to their environments
- Peppered moth example illustrates how fitness changes based on environmental conditions
- "March of Progress" image is a misconception showing linear progression from apes to humans, which is incorrect; evolution is branching and not linear
Module 9: Colonization Road
- Royal Proclamation of 1763 recognized Indigenous land rights
- Residential schools aimed to erase Indigenous culture
- Indoctrination, language changes, and abuse were inflicted on Indigenous children
- Two Row Wampum Treaty pledged mutual respect
- Settlers benefit from Indigenous land, and everyone in Canada is bound by treaties requiring mutual respect and responsibility
Module 11: Meaningful Life
- Example of meaning: A hobby like playing music
- Coherence, Purpose, and Significance
- Coherence: understanding how life events fit into a larger narrative
- Purpose: pursuing long-term goals
- Significance: feeling that life matters
- Frankl's theory emphasizes finding meaning in life, even in difficult circumstances, arising from love
Module 12: Happiness
- Impact bias, overestimating how future events will affect happiness (e.g, bad grade)
- Purpose of happiness motivates goal-directed behaviors and helps adapt to changing circumstances
- Knowledge of impact bias helps prioritize decisions based on long-term values rather than fleeting emotions
