From today’s lecture and workshop’s i have learned that what is meant by ideology and prejudice in relation to society and lifestyle. When this topic was first introduced i didnt have much knowlege and felt uncertain with the terms ideology and prejudice. However, the lecture gave great examples and definitions of both terms and i now have a deeper and thorough understanding.

I now understand that prejudice and ideology often can come from 5 agents of sociliastion which are media, technology, family, peers and education. I undertstand that they can have an impact on our thoughts and feelings toward certain subjects. I found it very useful that we were able to go over questions based on the 5 agents of socialisation in the tutorial. This again helped me to have a deeper understanding of the two concepts ideology and prejudice.

One thing i found challenging was the term secularisation. We had to tackle a question  in the tutroial which i found difficult. I will continue with further reading to further my understanding of this term.
