2.9 Experiencing prejudice and discrimination Look again at your answer to Author(s): 2.8 ‘Difference’, power and discrimination These first few sections have emphasised the point that differences are always produced in a social context, and that a key part of that context is power relationships. As pointed out earlier, a key element of Foucault’s social constructionist approach is that the way in which people are categorised in society (for example, by gender, ethnicity or age) involves an exercise of power that reflects the ideas and interests of dominant groups. One of the key arguments against essentialist views 2.7.5 Identities are negotiated In constructing their identities, people can only draw on terms that are available in society at that time, which have meanings and associations attached. However, people may attribute different meanings and importance to those labels. This means people always negotiate their identities, in the context of the different meanings attached to them. Taking this view of identity, as a social process that people engage in, rather than as a fixed essence inside them, is not to deny that partic 2.4.3 abelling The term ‘informal carer’ is a label. It was coined to describe people who take on unpaid responsibility for the welfare of another person. It is a term which has meaning only when the public world of care provision comes into contact with the private world of the family where caring is a day-to-day, unremarked-upon activity, like reminding a young child to clean her teeth. Labelling yourself as an informal carer requires a major shift in the way you see yourself, a shift neither Arthur n Acknowledgements Grateful acknowledgement is made to the following sources for permission to reproduce material in this unit: Except for third party materials and otherwise stated (see terms and conditions), this content is made available under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 2.0 Licence 2 Background to the Annual Report of the Chinese Welfare Association (1998) The first Chinese families arrived in Northern Ireland in the early 1960s. Since then the Chinese population has continued to grow in number and economic strength to become the largest minority ethnic group. There are approximately 8,000 people and over 500 Chinese businesses across Northern Ireland. Most of these businesses are family-run restaurants and takeaways. Working in the catering industry involves long, unsociable working hours and few opportunities for integration into the wider co 1 The Chinese Welfare Association's Carer Support Project, Belfast This audio unit features a project that was set up in Northern Ireland specifically to support Chinese carers. It is one of several projects being run by the Chinese Welfare Association in Belfast at that time. The Chinese Welfare Association is a voluntary orga 3.1 The role of observation It was clear to Canadian psychologist Albert Bandura (1924– ) that not only is children's behaviour shaped by its consequences, but also that children learn by watching the behaviour of people around them. In contrast to behaviourism, Bandura's social learning theory emphasised the importance of children imitating the behaviours, emotions and attitudes of those they saw around them: Learning would be exceedingly 4.3 Children and the armed forces The dual role of children as both perpetrators and victims of violence becomes very clear when looking at child soldiers. Despite international treaties, thousands of children worldwide fight in armies and paramilitary forces. Article 38 of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) states that no child under the age of fifteen should fight; supplementary international treaties, such as the 1999 Maputo Declaration on Child Soldiers and the 2000 Optional Protocol to the U Therapy Dogs Visit Georgia Tech Library Maths Lesson: A Job at LEGOLAND Click here to download this lesson as a printable PDF worksheet Learning Intention: To calculate, Lord of the Ants NASA | Earth at Night Dr Bob Brown - Crawford School Reflections Lecture 2012 C++ and Beyond 2012: Andrei Alexandrescu - Systematic Error Handling in C++ | Going Deep Andrei Alexandrescu presents "Systematic Error Handling in C++".

The holographic tactile display uses ultrasound to exert a pressure field - for example, it will exert pressure on the surface of your palm when virtual raindrops fall on it.Â

"Every so often a giant emerges on the stage of science, someone who transcends the narrow boundaries of a particular line of research and alters our perspective on the world. E.O. Wilson is such a man." (52:53)
In daylight our big blue marble is all land, oceans and clouds. But the night - is electric. This view of Earth at night is a cloud-free view from space.This video uses the Earth at night view created by NASA's Earth Observatory with data processed by NOAA's National Geophysical Data Center and combined with a version of the Earth Observatory's Blue Marble: Next Generation.

Dr Bob Brown, environmentalist and former leader of the Australian Greens, gives the Crawford School Reflections Lecture 2012 at the Crawford School on 3 December.
The Crawford School's Reflections Lecture provides the opportunity for influential Australian public policy participants to:
• discuss their role in Australian public policy
• examine their achievements
• assess what with hindsight could have been done differently
• consider the state of play with respect to contemporary

This video provides a brief introduction to the early history of Ancient Greece since 1500 B.C. It touches on the major points and periods of Greece and its people. It would make a good introduction to students who are beginning to study the civilization. NOTE: the video abruptly cuts off. (01:11)
Albert Einstein spent his last thirty years unsuccessfully searching for
a 'unified theory' - a single master principle to describe everything
in the universe, from tiny subatomic particles to immense clusters of
galaxies. In the decades since, generations of researchers have
continued working toward Einstein's dream.
Renowned physicists Leonard Susskind, Jana Levin, Jim Gates, and prominent historian Peter Galison discussed what's been achieved and tackle
