Description

These sources collectively examine how individuals, particularly children and families, are shaped by their environments and interactions, with a focus on socialization and cultural influences. The first text explores various psychological theories explaining family dynamics, different parenting styles, and the importance of family engagement in children's lives. It also touches upon the concept of culture, including material and nonmaterial aspects, and how it impacts norms and behaviors, as well as discussing gender roles and LGBT parenting. The second and third sources investigate the hidden curriculum within educational settings, particularly how societal norms, biases, and cultural perspectives, sometimes unconsciously, influence student experiences and understanding, including theological development and perceptions of self-worth and culture. Overall, the texts highlight the multifaceted ways in which families, communities, and cultural contexts contribute to individual development and learning.
