    Study Notes

    Universal and Global Factors

    • The presentation covers universal and global factors affecting education, including the family, education, religion, social services, and health services.
    • Topics discussed include universal access to education, which emphasizes equal opportunity regardless of social class, race, gender, sexuality, ethnic background, or physical/mental disabilities.
    • Global education integrates social, economic, environmental, and political aspects of the world into the curriculum. A global approach focuses on students' place in the world.
    • A national system of education considers national goals and needs, differing across countries. Developing nations strive for a unique identity and require strong national education systems to promote this image.
    • Factors influencing national education systems include geographical, economic, social/cultural, and historical factors, as well as language and political factors.

    Family

    • The family is a primary site of socialization, where individuals learn societal norms, values, and expectations that often reflect societal structures.
    • This socialization process in the family can be a mirror, mimicking and sometimes enforcing societal systems of oppression, including gender oppression in patriarchal societies.
    • This concept, drawn from Adams, Bell, and Griffin (2007), illustrates how the family often mirrors and potentially perpetuates societal dynamics, even in specific aspects of societal structures.
    • Within patriarchal systems, male authority often dominates the family structure.

      • Social and emotional competence of children

      • Faith
      • Flexibility
      • Humor
      • Communication skills
      • Problem-solving skills
      • Mutual supportive caring relationships
      • Ability to identify and access outside resources and services when needed

      • Typical events and life changes (e.g., moving, childcare, financial difficulties)
      • Unexpected events (e.g., job loss, illness, crisis)
      • Individual factors like substance abuse or trauma
      • Social factors like relationship challenges or isolation
      • Community, societal, and environmental challenges (e.g., poverty, racism, disaster)

    Social Connections

    • Social connections involve supportive relationships with others, feelings of respect and appreciation, and a willingness to give and receive assistance.
    • These factors are crucial components of positive social dynamics and engagement.
