3. They are all both deviant and criminal acts, but not just necessarily in Britain. • What is regarded as deviant and criminal is dependent on the norms of the society. What does this mean??

4. Most (C/B): Todefine deviance and give examples of how ideas about deviance change over time, from society to society and situation to situation Lesson Objective: To distinguish between the concepts of crimes and deviance Some (A/A*): Toanalyse whether all deviance is relative and explain why ideas about deviance are not constant across time and cultures All (D): To understand that deviance is socially constructedand differentiate between criminal and deviant acts

5. What is the difference between crime and deviance? • Deviance is going against social ‘norms’ (a society’s beliefs about how people should behave). E.g. Adults drinking in the street • A crime is when you act against criminal law. E.g. Drinking under-age Lesson Objective: To distinguish between the concepts of crimes and deviance

6. It is the social reaction that defines an act as deviant. • Acts of Deviance vary between CULTURES, SITUATIONS, PLACES AND TIME. BFGW music on train Tribe cougars As we watch the following clips, answer why they are deviant or criminal behaviours. Why do you consider the behaviour deviant/criminal? Ext: Would the behaviour be considered deviant or criminal in ALL countries?

7. There are FOUR types of deviant behaviour, because not all behaviour is considered deviant in ALL countries, at all times and in all situations, deviance is considered to be RELATIVE (Dependant on other factors) Match the correct definition to the key word!! Most of you should give an example for each type of deviance, especially if you are working at grade B and above! I will be asking some of you for examples! Eg cross cultural –being naked in your community is acceptable in certain tribal cultures but not in other countries such as the UK

8. Debate: In pairs, write a speech on whether you believe Deviance should be defined universally so that it is illegal in ALL countries. You have 10 minutes to do this, use the sheet to help you. TWO groups will then use their speech to take part in a debate!

9. Debate: Should deviance be defined and made illegal across all cultures?TWO pairs will now take part in the debate. The rest of you listen carefully so you can ask questions to challenge their points (when asked to) Lesson Objective: To distinguish between the concepts of crimes and deviance

10. Plenary: Which group did you agree with in the debate? Explain why, giving TWO things you thought they did well and ONE target for next time. Extension: Why do you think ideas about deviance are not constant (across all countries) Consider Social Reactions, cultures’ social norms and values

11. Homework: Create an information poster which explains the difference between crime and deviance. You should: • Provide definitions of each term • Give examples of each • Explain how deviance is relative Extension: Why deviance cannot be consistent across all situations and cultures.
