social sciences are NOT a part of the science "curriculum"\nSocial Science involves the knowledge of the social life of human beings...history, sociology, psychology, economics, poly sci, history  (social sciences are not part of the history department in schools, the history department is part of the social sciences)\n\n\nscience, in the other hand, is using the "scientific method" or the knowledge gained from the scientific method\n\nthe word "science" is misleading in the social sciences... the word science comes from the latin scientia, which just means "knowledge"- thus, social knowledge, whereas in the "science" field, it means gaining knowledge by using theories and experimentation.

Natural Science has to do with the natural aspect of things.  For example, it has to do with molecules (chemistry), biology (animals), physical things like circular forces and gravity (physics), etc.  Social sciences has to do with people.  It is the study of mankind, more commonly referred to as History (Social Studies).\n\nso your answer would be A.

Please teach! Education is history, in all areas of the curricula, history plays an important role. I hope you enjoy working with children.

In my humble opinion (and experience), an undergraduate college education is largely the process of training oneself to take the time to retain knowledge.  That's the point of the introductory classes in the first couple years.  They prepare you for the more in-depth major classes and perhaps research in the later years.  Ideally, it's more of training someone in how to learn more than teaching them facts.  \n\nAs far as what you do in college, it's usually a crazy balance f diverse things.  Time for classes, studying (hopefully), extra-curricular involvement, and a social life is hard to manage, but to be a job-attractive graduate, they are all necessary.

Let's deal with the sociopolitical aspects and the educational aspects separately.\n\n"Literate" means you are able to read.  It's possible to be literate in one language but not in another.  Literacy is a critical step to freedom:  you have access to a world full of information and no longer have to accept what others tell you.\n\n"Educated" is a value-loaded term.  That is, what subjects are considered important to know about is a culturally-determined thing.  An educated San tribesman needs to be able to recognise the tracks of two dozen creatures and assess the likelihood of finding water under a dry streambed by fingering a handful of the sand.  A person living in London and looking for work needs to know the things that most Londoners know, in addition to some skills that makes the person employable.  So the definition of "well educated" for an employer recruiting research assistants for the Political Science department of an American university is different from the definition that might be accepted by an employer recruiting a job foreman for a construction site in Nigeria.\n\nWhich brings us to the sociopolitical aspect of your question.  "Well educated" is situation-specific, as I've just described.  However, for employers to have an idea of what an applicant can be expected to know and do, there have to be some generally accepted standards of accomplishment.  That's what credentials are for, and they serve an important purpose in society.  THAT DOESN'T MEAN THAT THEY DEFINE YOU.  Your credentials are useful for specific purposes, but the richness of your life experience and character isn't expressed by saying you have x educational credential.  Some folks end up a PhD and still don't know how to tie their own shoes or say a kind word to a stranger.

Sociology? it is a social science, i believe. it studies all things to do with different cultures,different levels of importance among the cultures,social norms, and 'isms' like sexism, racism etc. i can't remember a lot about it,but it is one of those thought provoking subjects when you really study it. is that what you were asking?

Ahhh.  A question.  That means you desire information you do not have.  Reading these answers will provide you with some information and, by definition, you are being educated.  The more educated you become, the more you discover what you don't know.  The best formal education teaches you enough general information to allow you to determine what you really want to learn about.\n\nKeep asking questions.

The general graduation requirements, and a major in secondary education.  You can usually choose history by itself, but the end result, you will be certified in social studies, so you will take other social science classes.  For where I went to school, I was only 3 credits shy of getting a degree in history by itself.  If you want, you could do that and then go back to get a degree in teaching. Might help in the long run if you plan on getting a graduate degree.  Lots and lots of history classes to be a teacher.  Good luck.

They are both a bachelor's degree and are therefore viewed the same. Your major determines which one you will be awarded upon graduation. History and education both fall into the arts category.

Research allows a student to explore, systematically, a field of study with the intention of finding specific information, but all along learning additional facts in the search. It allows a student to focus strictly, without int eruption, on fact and gain a greater understanding of the information at hand; and learn how it relates to their world. It expands their mental perceptions and gives them new skills for handling new situations in that particular  area of study.\n\nWhich is why it is so important that the material being studied is organized, correct, and relevant. The more organized and relevant the facts are, the faster a students mind can absorb, categorize and relate it to other objects in their long term memory. With this greater understanding and knowledge obtained through this method, the better prepared a student will be when it comes time to apply that material to a new situation in the future.\n\nThe material above is my own words and is approx. 152 words long. I suggest you expand on it a little further instead of just copying and pasting. Do as the question suggests and gain a greater understanding of the material that I have written.

If  you want a masters in education, the concentration offerings are probably going to be in education specialties (such as administration, curriculum and instruction, reading, etc.) rather than in social studies.  If you want to concentrate on those areas, you may need to look for a masters program in history, political science, etc.  Unfortunately, most masters programs in those areas are going to be during the day and in person.  Most of the online masters programs available are designed for professional fields (such as education).  I don't know of any online masters in any of the liberal arts areas.  \nThere are a few online masters programs in secondary education where you would be allowed to work in your subject area while developing further pedagogical expertise.  One at California University of Pennsylvania provides an online masters in secondary education focused around national board certification.  (in the interest of full disclosure- I do know colleagues there).
