Development of IPS learning media is still limited to the use of maps and power points, developed by teachers and students themselves. Teachers realize that in learning social studies (IPS) is needed the use of media learning, but because of the limitations of media owned schools so they rarely use the media as a supporter of the learning process. In addition to factors of facilities and infrastructure is also limited ability of teachers in making media and cost factors and time. This research used reseach and development (R & D) approach, which was conducted in Surabaya. The result obtained showed the characteristics of IPS education as a synthetic discipline. IPS education not only synthesizes the concept of relevant concepts between educational sciences and the social sciences but also the purpose of education and development as well as social problems in social life will be a consideration of educational materials IPS. That the identity and context of children's social and culture plays an important role in the development of social studies.

Researching social phenomena online could, until quite recently, be perceived as a novelty. Nowadays, practically every research project in the social sciences needs to take online research into account. An important share of interpersonal interactions and social life has migrated into the online realm. This means that to maintain the current level of interest and detail of social analysis, the introduction of online research is increasingly necessary. This chapter introduces the idea of incorporating digital social science into any social studies project. It argues that not involving an analysis of online communities and social life is no longer an option for the vast majority of social sciences projects. It introduces the three possible approaches to understanding online social sciences: studying people while using the Internet, studying online communities, studying online culture output. It argues that doing research on avatars should be supplemented by doing research on actual people.

This article examines the social life of PFAS contamination (a class of several thousand synthetic per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) and maps the growing research in the social sciences on the unique conundrums and complex travels of the “forever chemical.” We explore social, political, and cultural dimensions of PFAS toxicity, especially how PFAS move from unseen sites into individual bodies and into the public eye in late industrial contexts; how toxicity is comprehended, experienced, and imagined; the factors shaping regulatory action and ignorance; and how PFAS have been the subject of competing forms of knowledge production. Lastly, we highlight how people mobilize collectively, or become demobilized, in response to PFAS pollution/ toxicity. We argue that PFAS exposure experiences, perceptions, and responses move dynamically through a “toxicity continuum” spanning invisibility, suffering, resignation, and refusal. We off er the concept of the “toxic event” as a way to make sense of the contexts and conditions by which otherwise invisible pollution/toxicity turns into public, mass-mediated, and political episodes. We ground our review in our ongoing multisited ethnographic research on the PFAS exposure experience.

<em>The objectives of this research are to: 1) improve the interest in Learning social sciences through the use of Joyful Learning strategy with Fun Social Puzzle media on 4th grade students 2) describe the use and the result of Joyful Learning strategy with Fun Social Puzzle media in improving the interest in Learning social science on 4<sup>th</sup> grade students. </em>The sources of data come from researcher, teachers, and students. The data collection techniques used are: interview, observation, and interest questionnaires. The data validity test techniques used are triangulation sources and methods. Data analysis techniques used are comparative descriptive analysis and interactive analysis models. The results of this research indicate that the interest in <em>Learning</em> social sciences on 4th grade students using <em>Joyful Learning</em> strategy with <em>Fun Social Puzzle</em> media improves. The improvement is seen by the number of students in high interest category and very high category increase. On pre-action, students who have a high interest and very high interest on the social sciences subjects are only 32%. In cycle I it increases to 63%. In the end of the cycle II it increases to 93% or 28.

Polemicists and disciplinary puritans commonly make a sharp distinction between the normative, “prescriptive,” philosophical work of bioethicists and the empirical, “descriptive” work of anthropologists and sociologists studying medicine, healthcare, and illness. Though few contemporary medical anthropologists and sociologists of health and illness subscribe to positivism, the legacy of positivist thought persists in some areas of the social sciences. It is still quite common for social scientists to insist that their work does not contain explicit normative analysis, offers no practical recommendations for social reform or policy making, and simply interprets social worlds.

This chapter describes a “dramatistic,” “dramatic,” or “dramaturgical” approach to the study of social interaction. It asks whether the dramaturgical model insists on the theatricality of social life merely in the sense of insisting that people fill roles just as persons act parts in a play. This is the question of whether the crucial element in the dramaturgical picture is that cluster of insights that goes under the general heading of “role distance.” The chapter considers the peculiarities of rational explanation and about the role of reconstructions of “the thing to do” other than the role of explaining an action or series of actions by focusing on voting behavior in the terms proposed by Anthony Downs's An Economic Theory of Democracy. It also examines some recent accounts of the phenomenon of suicide, along with the rationality principle, which Karl Popper calls “false but indispensable” to the social sciences.

The term global suggests all-inclusiveness and brings to mind connectivity, a notion that gained a boost from Marshall McLuhan's reference to the mass-mediated ‘global village’. In the past decade it has rapidly become part of the everyday vocabulary not only of academics and business people, but also has circulated widely in the media in various parts of the world. There have also been the beginnings of political movements against globalization and proposals for ‘de-globalization’ and ‘alternative globalizations’, projects to re-define the global. In effect, the terminology has globalized and globalization is varyingly lauded, reviled and debated around the world. The rationale of much previous thinking on humanity in the social sciences has been to assume a linear process of social integration, as more and more people are drawn into a widening circle of interdependencies in the movement to larger units, but the new forms of binding together of social life necessitate the development of new forms of global knowledge which go beyond the old classifications. It is also in this sense that the tightening of the interdependency chains between human beings, and also between human beings and other life forms, suggests we need to think about the relevance of academic knowledge to the emergent global public sphere.
