This week we are wrapping up our overview of sociology’s core frameworks and founding theorists with a look Max Weber and his understanding of the modern world. We’ll explore rationalization and the transition from traditional to modern society. We’ll also discuss bureaucracy, legitimacy, and social stratification in the modern state. Finally, we’ll see why Weber was so worried about the modern world.

Today we’re going to talk about measures of central tendency - those are the numbers that tend to hang out in the middle of our data: the mean, the median, and mode. All of these numbers can be called “averages” and they’re the numbers we tend to see most often - whether it’s in politics when talking about polling or income equality to batting averages in baseball (and cricket) and Amazon reviews. Averages are everywhere so today we’re going to discuss how these measures differ, how their relationship with one another can tell us a lot about the underlying data, and how they are sometimes used to mislead.

In this episode of Crash Course Kids, Sabrina uses what she knows about properties of objects to solve the mystery of what she tripped over last night.

Today, we're looking at measures of spread, or dispersion, which we use to understand how well medians and means represent the data, and how reliable our conclusions are. They can help understand test scores, income inequality, spot stock bubbles, and plan gambling junkets. They're pretty useful, and now you're going to know how to calculate them!

Media isn’t just movies and newspapers and TV shows, it’s also a part of society that involves a lot of money. And all that money has implications for the media that gets created. Media is created by people -- a range of people, making a range of decisions, and earning a range of different paychecks to do it. Those decisions matter and understanding how money affects those decisions is an essential component of media literacy.

We’ve talked about how broad a concept “the media” really is – and given that, it can be hard to keep track of all the different forces that constitute “the media.” It can be tough, but it’s not impossible. Today we’re talking about how all those big players fit together and why all those mergers and acquisitions matter to being a media literate citizen.

Copyright and other media regulations have always been a bit tricky, but the internet made all of that infinitely more complicated. But what does all of that mean for you, the consumer?

Now that you have a solid understanding of the media landscape, it’s time to equip you with the essential skills for navigating it.

MediaSmarts has designed a new educational card game for grades 9 to 12, #ForYou: A Game About Algorithms, to simulate the different roles that recommendation algorithms play in delivering videos and ads online. The card game is accompanied by a lesson plan (for classroom use) and a discussion guide (for use in a home, workshop or community group). For more details, please visit the MediaSmarts website.Contact: Julia Ladouceur, Project Manager at MediaSmarts, jladouceur@mediasmarts.ca 

MediaSmarts has been developing digital and media literacy programs and resources for Canadian homes, schools and communities since 1996.
