1.Social facts are collective ways of acting, thinking or feeling

Activity2
1. Social facts are collective ways of acting, thinking or feeling. They are not unique to particular individuals but originate outside the consciousness of the individuals who act, think, or fell in this way.
2. Able to influence them and contribute to their development, but they do so only in association with other individuals. It is in this sense that social facts are the collective products of a society as a whole or of particular social groups. 
3. they are often observable only through their effects.   We may be able to infer the existence of the role of husband. By observing numerous conversations, we may be able to infer the existence of particular rules of grammar.
4. Durkheim remarks, for example, that he is not forced to speak French, nor is he punished if he does not, but he will be understood by his compatriots only if he does, in fact, use the rules and conventions of French vocabulary and grammar.

activity2:
1)Social facts are collective ways of acting, thinking, or feeling.
2). Individuals are, of course, able to influence them and contribute to
their development, but they do so only in association with other individuals. It is in this
sense that social facts are the collective products of society as a whole or of particular social groups.
3)Durkheim emphasizes that social facts are very difficult to observe. Similarly, we cannot observe the grammar of a language, but only the speech of particular individuals. Social facts are, in general, invisible and intangible and their properties have to be discovered indirectly. 
4)Durkheim remarks, for example, that he is not forced to speak French, nor is he punished if he does not, but he will be understood by his compatriots only if he does, in fact, use the rules and conventions of French vocabulary and grammar. ]]> 2021-10-11 10:00:04 UTC https://padlet.com/usictech/oaged1mdus0m2wqe/wish/1807188079 Group1 xzhang282 https://padlet.com/usictech/oaged1mdus0m2wqe/wish/1807251139 Activity 3
1) Functionalism holds that society is a complex system whose various parts work together to produce stability and that sociology should investigate their relationships.
2)Comparing the operation of society to a living organism. Analyzing the function of a social institution such as the education system means showing the part it plays in the smooth running of a society.
3)Functionalism emphasizes the importance of moral consensus in maintaining order and stability. Moral consensus exists when most people in a society share the same values. Durkheim argued that religious beliefs reaffirm people's adherence to core social values, thereby contributing to the maintenance of social cohesion.
4)Manifest functions are those known to, and intended by, the participants in a specific type of social activity. 
Latent functions are consequences of that activity of which the participants are unaware.
5)For example, it is mistaken to suppose that religion is always functional and that it only contributes to social cohesion. When religious groups disagree with one other the result can be major social conflict, causing widespread social disruption. Thus, wars have often been fought between religious communities.]]> 2021-10-11 10:35:00 UTC https://padlet.com/usictech/oaged1mdus0m2wqe/wish/1807251139 Group2 2628747 https://padlet.com/usictech/oaged1mdus0m2wqe/wish/1807259715 1. Functionalism holds that society is a complex system whose various parts work together to produce stability and that sociology should investigate their relationships
2. The parts of society work together just as the various parts of human body do, for the benefit of society as a whole, to study a bodily organ such as the heart, we need to show how it relate to other parts of the body, the heart plays a vital role in the continuation of the life of the organism
3. Functionalism emphasis the importance of moral consensus in maintaining order and stability  For instance, Durkheim argued that religious beliefs reaffirm people’s adherence to core social values, thereby contributing to the maintenance of social cohesion.
4. Manifest functions are those, known to, the participants in the specific type of social activity. Latent functions are consequences of that activity of which the participants are unaware. For example, Merton examined the rain dance performed by the Hopi believe that this ceremony will bring the rain they need for their crops. But the rain dance, Merton argued, also has the effect of promoting group cohesion of Hopi society.
5. Any disturbance in the function, it is mistaken to suppose that religion is always functional and that it only contributes to social cohesion.]]> 2021-10-11 10:40:04 UTC https://padlet.com/usictech/oaged1mdus0m2wqe/wish/1807259715 Activity3，Group 3 rmc6fwtg98 https://padlet.com/usictech/oaged1mdus0m2wqe/wish/1807268953 1、Functionalism holds that society is a complex system whose various parts work together to produce stability and that sociology should investigate their relationships.
