OverviewAs we consider the development of the ideal society, we should explore the impact of groups. All people are social beings; however, we do not socialize in the same manner. The structure and type of society dictate how, when, why, where, with whom, and the frequency with which people engage. Consider how the ideal society would encourage the development of formal and informal groups. Also, explore the idea of deviance. For example, how could people who deviate from social norms enhance and/or disrupt society?What Makes an Ideal Society?You should spend approximately 8.75 hours on this assignment.InstructionsYou are going to expand your ideas for an ideal society to include groups and deviance. Your paper will cover three sections: key components, theory, and the people.Project Sections (Be sure to address the following questions in each section.)Key Components:What are the different types of groups (e.g., primary groups, secondary groups, reference groups, formal groups, in-groups, and out-groups) within a society?What are the main characteristics of a group?How does the group fit the needs of the society and individuals?What is deviance?How can deviance contribute to society? How does it detract?Theory:How does Merton’s five-part typology of deviance fit within an ideal society? How can the theory explain stigmas?People:How do the different types of groups (primary groups, secondary groups, reference groups, formal groups, in-groups, and out-groups) impact people?How do people engage and contribute when they are part of an in-group?What are the benefits and drawbacks of belonging? How do people conform to groups?How do groups control individuals?What occurs when people are not part of a group? How might they react?Why do people consider deviance a mental illness?The paper should be at least 3 pages (the title page and reference page do not count as part of the page requirement). The content should include information addressing the main questions, and a well-argued introduction and conclusion.Please include proper formatting throughout the paper. Use APA Style to format the title page, reference page, and citations. Use third-person language, double-spacing, a 12-point font, and one-inch margins.

SMM Plan Part OneEssential to creating an effective social media marketing plan is the ability to analyze the environment in which the product or service will be offered. In Week Three, write at least 1200 words, creating the Brief Overview, Social Media Presence, and Competitive Analysis sections of your plan which includes a SWOT analysis. Please refer to the Social Media Marketing Outline for additional information. Submit the project through the Assignment Manager link IBrief OverviewNOTE : The following tips provide suggestions for constructing an effective overview section:1. Describe the industry and company in order to set the stage for the decision makers by providing a quick look at the past, present, and likely future of the industry and the company’s track record within that industry.2. Carefully identify the target market of the company based on segmentation strategies discussed in the textbook and during the Live Collaborate Session3. Explain the competitive advantage in order to show how the company can realize significant gains by using social media marketing.4. Describe how social media marketing can contribute by concisely listing the social media actions that will be required to secure the competitive advantage.II. Social Media PresenceNOTE : The following are five key metrics for auditing a company’s social media presence on individual social media platforms:Sentiment Analysis – Shows the number of positive, neutral, or negative mentions on each social media platform where the company has a sizable presence.Reach – Indicates the number of Twitter followers, Facebook fans, LinkedIn group members, Flickr view count, and so on.Company Posts – Measure how often the company posts on each social media platform.Feedback – Shows the number of comments, likes, or replies to company-generated content. Average Response Time – Assesses response time to user comments on the company’s social media properties.III. Competitive AnalysisNOTE : A Social Media SWOT Analysis identifies a company’s strengths and weaknesses on social media platforms as well as the opportunities and threats on the social web. Once all the factors for a company have been profiled, it is possible to determine the appropriate strategy in the SWOT Matrix. Your research must also include at least 5 additional academic or current news (e.g., journal articles) resources in addition to your textbook to support your conclusions.

This assessment method is designed to help you see how logic is used (or misused) in everyday life, and thereby appreciate the importance of good reasoning. You are asked to do some fieldwork related to logic. In particular, you are asked to document an argument “in the wild,” that is, an argument someone makes during a debate, a dispute, or a disagreement as you witness it in everyday life. The argument cannot be taken from a book or an article. You may use various mediums to document this “argument in the wild,” such as text, image, audio, or video. Then you should analyze the argument using the logical tools we learn throughout this course. For the first Argument in the Wild, you should write the argument in canonical form and then evaluate it (that is, determine whether the argument is sound or unsound).
Here is an example of what an “Arguments in the Wild 1” submission should look like:
In this video, Ted Cruz makes the following argument: “…climate change is not science; it’s religion. Look at the language where they call you a denier. ‘Denier’ is not the language of science.”
Senator Cruz’s argument in this video can be reconstructed in canonical form as follows:
P1: Scientists who use religious language are not doing science.
P2: Climatologists (or “global warming alarmists” in Cruz’s words) use religious language (e.g., the term ‘denier’).
Therefore,
C: Climatologists are not doing science. (In other words, “climate change is not science.”)
Reconstructed in this way, Cruz’s argument is valid; that is, if P1 and P2 are true, then C would have to be true as well. The question, then, is whether the premises are in fact true. Is the argument sound? It is not clear that P1 and P2 are actually true. As far as P1 is concerned, scientists use what might be characterized as “religious language” all the time. For example, cosmologists and astrophysicists talk about creation when they talk about the origin of the universe and the Big Bang. Does that mean that cosmology and astrophysics are not science?
As far as P2 is concerned, the term ‘denier’ is not necessarily a “religious” term. In a court of law, for instance, a defendant might say that s/he denies the charges pressed against him/her. Does that mean that one is using “religious language”?
Since there are doubts about whether P1 and P2 are in fact true, although Cruz’s argument can be reconstructed as a valid argument, it cannot be said to be sound.

As discussed in Chapter 11, power and authority issues are always present in helping relationships and groups.  Social workers need to understand clients’ responses to these dynamics and recognize when our beliefs and attitudes are affecting the helping process. 
Think of a situation or circumstance in which you felt a strong power imbalance between yourself and another person. This person may have had authority over some aspect of your life, which gave him or her some control over your happiness and life satisfaction, achievement of your personal goals and desires, etc. The person may have used the authority and power to assist/provide you with something, or they may have used it to prevent you from achieving something you wanted. Write about the “objective event” but also about the feelings you had at that time about the person, circumstances, and yourself.
Chapter 14: Social Movements
Main Points

Social movements are formed when people feel that one or more social institutions are unjust and need to be changed. Mario Diani (della Porta & Diani, 2006) identifies the following properties that distinguish social movements from other social collectivities: they are involved in conflictual relations with clearly identified opponents, linked by dense informal networks, and share a distinct collective identity. (p. 20)
The profession of social work has its origins in the confluence of social work movements: the charity organization society movement and the settlement house movement.
Three theoretical perspectives on social movements have emerged in the past two decades: the political opportunities perspective, the mobilizing structures perspective, and the cultural framing perspective. None of these perspectives taken individually is sufficient for understanding social movements, but taken together, they provide a multidimensional understanding. Dissatisfaction with these three perspectives is leading to emerging theories of social movements.
Social movements have a number of effects on societies, some of them intended and some unintended. A few movements attain many of their goals, others result in formal protest organizations that have longevity, and many, if not most, are suppressed and ignored.
Recently, there has been a rise in transnational social movement organizations (TSMOs).
Contemporary social work, like historical social work, must manage tension between professional services and social reform.
