intentionally jumbled the meanings, allowing the
students to determine the correct meaning and
match it the word.
This serves as the preliminary input in delivering
the meaning of culture and society in the
viewpoint of anthropology:
Anthropology- the study of humans, past and
present.
- The science that deals with the origins,
physical and cultural development,
biological characteristics, and social
customs and beliefs of humankind
1. Cultural-study of cultures, beliefs,
practices, values, ideas, technologies,
economies and other domains of social
and cognitive organization
2. Archaeology
3. Physical/Biological
4. Linguistic
5. Philosophical Anthropology – the study of
the nature and essence of humankind.
Perspective-means perception, outlook,
standpoint, or viewpoint
Culture-could refer to philosophy, art, music,
literature, and civilization
- The characteristics and knowledge of a
particular group of people, defined by
everything from language, religion,
cuisine, social habits, music and arts.
Society-could refer to civilization, people and
association

The teacher shows pictures of known tribal groups
in the Philippines and some in the world.

Practice No. 7-The Mursi women of Ethiopia.
Teeth will be removed to attach the plate to the
lower lip of a woman. After a certain period of
time, the plate will be removed. They do this as
they believed that it makes them beautiful, and
that their society sees it as beautiful. See attached
photo in the power point presentation.
Practice No. 8- While it may seem that the Karen
women have unusually long necks, their
traditional brass rings actually smash their
shoulders and rib cages down just making their
necks seem longer. The brass rings, which are
also around their shins and arms, are made out of
one solid pieces of metal making them quite
heavy, with over 25 rings on their necks.
The practice of the brass rings was started not just
for beauty, but also to protect against tigers and in
some cases even just because the village leader
said he preferred it; or for the sake of tradition or
holding on to their heritage.

Society is a total complex of

Society is an exchange of

Society as a collection of

from them in behaviour.
Society as the complex of

Society as a system of usages

Then the teacher will introduce the concept of
sociological perspective
Sociological Perspective
- A special point of view of sociology
that sees the general patterns of society
in the lives of particular people.
Transition:
One of the works that elaborate this special
5 DLL IN UNDERSTANDING CULTURE, SOCIETY AND POLITICS
point of view is C.W Mills’ s Sociological
Imagination
Sociological Imagination
-refers to the ability of sociologist to
understand society systematically (C. Wright
Mills, 1959)
- requires a global perspective, a study of the
larger world and our society’s place in it
(Macionis 2012:6)
The sociological imagination helps us
understand everyday events. According to Mills,
“society-not people’s failings- is the main cause
of poverty and other social problems. By
turning personal problems into public issues, the
sociological imagination also is the key to
bringing people together to create need change”

3. They will assign a reporter to explain
their answers.
Students will explain the sociological
perspectives on culture and society through a
graphic organizer.
Cultures have these and possibly many
other universal traits, different cultures
have developed their own specific ways
of carrying out or expressing them. For
instance, people in deaf subcultures
frequently use their hands to
communicate with sign language
instead of verbal language. However,
sign languages have grammatical rules
just as verbal ones do.
While cultures are complexes of learned
behavior patterns and perceptions,
societies are groups of interacting
organisms. Societies are groups of
people who directly or indirectly
interact with each other. People in
human societies also generally perceive
that their society is distinct from other
societies in terms of shared traditions
and expectations.
The teacher asks the students to group according
to their preference:

depends on the teacher; purpose is to remix/and
