Discuss what responsibilities, if any, citizens should have related to being historically informed. For example, what historical inquiry skills might be important for a citizenry to have to address current global challenges?Think about a challenge, opportunity, event, or issue that affects your community. How might being more historically informed impact how you understand that issue or how you take action?

According to the text, the way we learn to interact with other people is called Socialization. Socialization is defined as “a lifelong process during which we learn about social expectations and how to interact with other people.” Nearly all of the behavior that we consider to be ‘human nature’ is actually learned through socialization. stage of life — childhood, adolescent, young adult, adult, or senior — AND tell the class which agent or agents of socialization are most important at that certain stage of human development?
And, it is during socialization that we learn how to walk, talk, and feed ourselves, about behavioral norms that help us fit in to our society, and so much more.
Socialization occurs throughout our life, and these are the most influential agents of socialization – family, school, peers, religion, and mass media. While they all influence us,some are more influential than others at certain stages of development. So, for example…family is the prime agent in childhood, but peer groups take over in adolescence. You can learn about the various agents of socialization beginning on page 78 of the textbook.
For this week’s discussion choose a stage of life — childhood, adolescent, young adult, adult, or senior — AND tell the class which agent or agents of socialization are most important at that certain stage of human development?
Select a scenario from recent news, pop culture, medicine/health care, science, or personal observations where correlation and causation might be conflated (or might not be – maybe there really is a causal relationship!). Describe the situation and explain why the factors involved might be correlated but not necessarily causative. Make sure to detail your reasoning and explain why it’s a fallacy to confuse causation and correlation.
As we explore the concepts of correlation and causation this week, we’re aiming to understand how these terms, while often used interchangeably in everyday conversation, hold distinct meanings in critical reasoning.For your initial post, select a scenario from recent news, pop culture, medicine/health care, science, or personal observations where correlation and causation might be conflated (or might not be – maybe there really is a causal relationship!). Describe the situation and explain why the factors involved might be correlated but not necessarily causative. Make sure to detail your reasoning and explain why it’s a fallacy to confuse causation and correlation.
Create your own cult ! As this is a very different discussion board, we shall have to play some of it by ear. However, think what you have learned about cults from the book reading, the power point lecture, and the supplemental videos. When describing your cult to the class, here are some areas that you may wish to include and talk about: What was the original intention of a particular organization later labeled a cult? What did it offer? What were its practices? Who joined and why? What does it tell us about spirituality and culture in America?

This lawsuit was filed by two women, Jane Doe 1 and Jane Doe 2, who were sexually assaulted by Uber drivers. As the court notes, Doe 1 and Doe 2 sued Uber for various tort claims, including battery, assault, false imprisonment, and intentional infliction of emotional distress. Obviously, Uber itself (the corporate entity) cannot commit certain torts like battery, but its employees can. What theory of liability (the Latin phrase) did Doe 1 and Doe 2 present as the basis for holding Uber, rather than the actual perpetrators, liable for the Uber drivers torts?
Read Case 5.1 and answer the following questions:1) This lawsuit was filed by two women, Jane Doe 1 and Jane Doe 2, who were sexually assaulted by Uber drivers. As the court notes, Doe 1 and Doe 2 sued Uber for various tort claims, including battery, assault, false imprisonment, and intentional infliction of emotional distress. Obviously, Uber itself (the corporate entity) cannot commit certain torts like battery, but its employees can. What theory of liability (the Latin phrase) did Doe 1 and Doe 2 present as the basis for holding Uber, rather than the actual perpetrators, liable for the Uber drivers torts?2) This case presented two legal issues for the court. The first legal issue is whether Uber drivers are employees or independent contractors. In this lawsuit, Ubers lawyers argued that its drivers were independent contractors. Why did Uber make this argument? In other words, what is the legal significance of being an independent contractor, rather than an employee, in a case like this where the worker at issue has committed various torts while performing their work for the employer?3) An important aspect of this case is its procedural context, specifically, a motion to dismiss where the defendant argues that the plaintiffs complaint fails to state a claim on which relief can be granted or that the allegations of the complaint are simply insufficient to rule in the plaintiffs favor. When ruling on a motion to dismiss, the court will seek to determine whether the plaintiffs complaint contain[s] sufficient factual matter, accepted as true, to state a claim . . . that is plausible on its face. With this standard in mind, why did the court find the factual allegations of the plaintiffs complaint sufficient to claim that these drivers were employees, rather than independent contractors? In other words, why were the facts as alleged sufficient to withstand the defendants motion to dismiss on this first legal issue of employee versus independent contractor?4) At the top of page 123 (Ch. 5-2c), Bagley states that [w]hether a person is an independent contractor or an employee depends on what he or she does, not on how the relationship is characterized by the parties. In other words, simply labeling a worker an independent contractor does not make them so if the realities of the employment situation suggest that worker is actually an employee. Why do you think that courts do not allow employers to decide for themselves a workers proper classification? Hint: Review Chapter 5-2c.5) In the Comments section at the end of this case, the author notes that Uber has faced numerous lawsuits in various states regarding the proper classification of its drivers, and that different courts have come to different conclusions on that issue. Does it make sense to you that an injured customer could hold an employer like Uber vicariously liable for an employees sexual assault (or other tortious conduct) in one state, but not in another? Why or why not?6) As noted, this case presented two legal issues for the court. The second issue is whether sudden sexual assaults by Uber drivers are outside the scope of an Uber drivers duties under California law. How did the court rule on that issue and what was the courts reasoning to support that decision?7) In the end, the court denied Ubers motion to dismiss the claims against Uber because the plaintiffs had sufficiently alleged facts (1) to suggest the Uber drivers were employees, rather than independent contractors; and (2) to support the claim that the drivers were acting within the scope of employment when they assaulted the plaintiffs. As would be expected, Uber then settled the case with Doe 1 and Doe 2 (but the settlement terms were not made public). In your opinion, what was the most interesting or surprising aspect of this case?8) Overall, this case shows how critical it is for employers and courts to properly distinguish between employees and independent contractors. In your opinion, if you were the judge in this case, would you find that Uber drivers are employees or independent contractors? What would be the basis for your opinion?
