Demonstrate understanding of how ideologies shape society
This standard asks you to explain how different ideologies (sets of beliefs and values) have shaped changes in society. You need to identify at least two contrasting ideologies, describe the perspectives of people who hold them, and use evidence to show how social processes (like education, media, politics) have helped turn those ideologies into real-world changes.
You name two clear ideologies, describe different perspectives linked to them, identify changes these ideologies caused, name at least one social process involved, and support your answer with some evidence.
You explain how and why each ideology shaped society by linking them to specific social processes, showing how different groups' values and perspectives led to actual changes, with reasonable depth and detail.
You evaluate which ideology has had the greater influence on society and why, comparing the extent of each ideology's impact with strong, consistent evidence throughout your answer.
