Good job class!

The pictures used in the activity show issues or

problems in the society. Do they seem familiar?
These issues will be introduced to you in the
succeeding part of the lesson.

C. Lesson Proper
In this part of the lesson, you will discover various
1. ACTIVITY issues that you normally hear over the radio, on
television, or on social media. They are issues that
 affect you and the people around you. How
common are these issues in your area? How do
they affect you and your loved ones?

Let's continue working on the activities and consider

your own personal experiences especially those
related to the various social issues around you.

Activity 2: Issue in a Snapshot

(Group Activity)

I'll group you into 5 groups. Every group will receive

a worksheet and must identify the issue shown in
the picture. Then, complete the concept map by
filling in the boxes with possible causes of the issue
identified. Write your answers on the worksheet I
gave you.

2. ANALYSIS What issue is reflected in the picture? Yes, Mira. Ma’am, we can see some
people living slums in
which can encounter
issues like: social
exclusion, climate
change, and inadequate
public health systems.

That’s correct, Mira.

 Some reasons why such
issue exists ma’am
because of low income
or even extreme poverty.
Yes, that’s true Peter.

Glaiza. doesn’t even have a
good place to live in.

Aside from the issue presented in the picture, what I have heard
other social and economic problems have you drug/alcohol abuse
heard, seen, or experienced? Yes, Mira. ma’am.

That’s true. Many young people nowadays are

being addicted to that issues that leads to various
consequences.

3. ABSTRACTION You have already analyzed the issue on poverty in

the picture analysis you did in the previous activity.

What are common types of issues in the society?

What type of issue is poverty?

As you read and listen, reflect on whether you have

seen, heard, or experienced the issues presented in
this section.

What is an issue?
An issue is an important problem or topic that
people in the society argue about or discuss since it
negatively affects many people in the society. It
could be a social, moral, or economic issue. But this
day, we will focus on social issues.

SOCIAL ISSUES- prevent the society from

functioning at the most desirable level.

An issue becomes a social issue under the following

circumstances:
➢ The issue involves people in the society.
➢ The public, as a whole, recognizes the
situation as a problem.
➢ A large segment of the population sees the
situation as a valid concern.
➢ The situation can be alleviated through the
joint actions of the citizens.

Examples:

The image
reflects an
issue on
drug
addiction.
 Drug addiction or the use of prohibited drugs can
cause the drug user to neglect his responsibility
towards his family, children, career, education, and
health. Thus, it is a social problem that can
adversely affect not only the lives of the drug
addicts, but also their families and the entire
community.

The image reflects

the issue on
crimes.

Crime is a social issue

and at the same time
a moral issue since it
affects the safety and
security of citizens
and it is against the
values and beliefs of
the people. It is
prohibited by the law
as it is harmful or
offensive to the
people or the society.

The image reflects the issue on poverty.

Poverty is described by the World Bank

Organization as hunger, lack of shelter, being sick,
and not being able to see a doctor. It is further
defined as not having access to school, not having
a job, fear of the future, and living a kind of hand-
to-mouth existence. It is a social problem since a
large segment of the population experiences such
situation and sees it as a valid concern.

4. APPLICATION Now that you have learned about various social

issues, it is time to find out how much you have
understood the lesson.
