- The internet changed the world of information giving a voice to previously marginalized groups
- People changed where they go to find news and information and became less conscious of the source of information (reliability)
- Search methodologies: relevancy, popularity, personality and publicity
Dorothy Smith
- Incorporates the perspectives and experiences of women
- Draws on marx on feminist standpoint theory arguing that sociological theory gives a distorted view of the world because it is constructed by men and ignores the perspectives of women

Vantage point
Desribes the perspective built into each abtraction that necessarily views reality from a particular location (undergraduate school afterwards)
Sears & Cairns; school
- Critique of the dominant model of university education based on the premises of the conflict model and influenced by theories associated with critical pedagogy
- Design of the classroom assumes that sitting still and listening to an educator is the best way to learn
Banking Model of Education
- Views students as ATMS and teachers as inputting the knowledge into the 'atms'
- Focuses on acquistion rather than transformation
Social order/Functionalist Approach on School
Manifest function - what something was intended to do (schools teaching children knowledge)
Latent function - what something was unintended to do (schools socializing children)
The Schooled Society
- Society is created and defined by education
- People are spending more time at school in their lives and it is becoming more inclusive and expanding
Why is Schooling Becoming so Popular (theory approaches)
- Functionalism; development of a complex division of labor and preparing children for adult roles (prepare and train people for specific roles in economy (jobs))
- Human Capitol Theory: schools produce workers to fill the jobs in the labor market
- Conflict Theory: how social inequalities are implemented in the education system
