     Urbanization 
   
  Urbanization refers to the population shift from rural to urban areas, "the gradual increase in the proportion of people living in urban areas", and the ways in which each society adapts to the change. due to its great effects to the society's flow, 43% of the world lives in urban areas due to the economic opportunities may it be job related, school related, or business related. Urbanization is changing society greatly through diversity, independence, secularization, and mass communication systems. These characteristics or advantages is the reason why the large amount of population shifts from rural to urban places. 
          Good schools and good opportunities can be found in urbanized places which people are looking forward to. But despite the problems to this which leads us to weaker social attachments or higher crime. In urbanized places crimes are more rampant due to the number of people who are staying in the area which gives opportunities for criminals to do crimes towards the number of people living in an urbanized area.

     Capital costs for building improved environmental infrastructure for example, investments in a cleaner public transportation systems, building of more hospitals, schools, and infrastructures where wages exceed those in rural areas. Economically speaking when you want to acquire something, you have to sacrifice something. Urbanization is also a threat to mother nature, for trees are replaced with buildings, and factories producing bad gasses which will activate global warming. although we continue to grow and improve urbanization we must also be mindful of our actions in the growth of our economy. Such as that we do not create harm to ourselves and to others.

    Therefore urbanization is one of the most vital part in social change because it plays a big role unto the lives of people. It gives out positive as well as negative effects to humankind. It is the most common thing that is happening in the present, yet we rarely notice. We must evolve with caution and keep the world safe for the children in the near future.

Social Change (Urbanization)

Urbanization 



Urbanization refers to the population shift from rural to urban areas, "the gradual increase in the proportion of people living in urban areas", and the ways in which each society adapts to the change. This is one great example of social change due to it's great effects to the society's flow, 43% of the world lives in urban areas due to the economic opportunities may it be job related, school related, or business related. Urbanization is changing society greatly through diversity, independence, secularization, and mass communication systems. These characteristics or advantages is the reason why the large amount of population shifts from rural to urban places. Good schools and good opportunities can be found in urbanized places which people are looking forward to. But despite the good opportunities and advantages of urbanization, there are also problems to this which leads us to weaker social attachments or higher crime. In urbanized places crimes are more rampant due to the number of people who are staying in the area which gives opportunities for criminals to do crimes towards people living in urbanized places.

  Capital costs for building improved environmental infrastructure for example, investments in a cleaner public transportation system such as a subway and for building more hospitals and clinics are higher in cities, where wages exceed those paid in rural areas. And urban land prices are much higher because of the competition for space. But not all urban areas have the same kinds of environmental conditions or health problems. Some research suggests that indicators of health problems, such as rates of infant mortality, are higher in cities that are growing rapidly than in those where growth is slow.

                Therefore urbanization is one of the most vital part of social change, because it plays a big role unto the lives of people. It gives out positive as well as negative gifts to human kind. It is the most common thing that is happening in the present, yet we rarely notice due to the evolution of the perspective of men.

Kabanata 1 - Sa ibabaw ng Kubyerta o Sa Kubyerta



















I.Buod
                    Umaga ng Disyembre. Sa Ilog Pasig ay sumasalunga ang Bapor Tabo. Lulan nito sa kubyerta sina Don Custodio, Ben Zayb, P. Irene, P. Salvi, Donya Victorina, Kap. Heneral at Simoun.

Napag-usapan ang pagpapalalim ng ilog Pasig. Mungkahi ni Don Custodio: mag-alaga ng itik. Ani Simoun namang kilalang tagapayo ng Kap. Heneral: Gumawa ng tuwid na kanal na mag-uugnay sa lawa ng Laguna at sa look ng Maynila. Nagkasagutan sila ni Don Custodio at ng ilang pari. Ayaw ni Donya Victorina na matuloy ang pag-aalaga ng pato dahil darami ang balot na pinandidirihan niya.



II.Tauhan

Donya VictorinaAng mapagpanggap na isang Europea ngunit isa namang Pilipina; tiyahin ni Paulita.

Kapitan - Pinakamataas na pinuno ng Pilipinas noong panahon ng kastila.

Don Custudio - Ang kilala sa tawag na Buena Tinta.

Ben-zayb - Ang mamamahayag sa pahayagan.

Padre Irene - Ang kaanib ng mga kabataan sa pagtatatag ng Akademya ng Wikang Kastila.

Simoun - Ang kilalang tagapayo ng Kap. Heneral.

Padre Camorra - Ang mukhang artilyerong pari.

Padre Salvi -  Isa siyang payat at malungkuting prayle.


III.Suliranin sa kabanata

           Ang suliranin o problema sa kabanata ang tumutukoy sa diskriminasyon sa kapwa tao. Ang kabanata I ay nagpapakita na ang mga mahihirap ay ipinagkaiba sa mga mayayaman o may kaya. Nailarawan din dito ang pagkawalan ng nationalismo ng mga Pilipino sa pamamgitan ni Donya Victorina dahil siya ay nagpapanggap o gusto maging isa sa mga dayuhan.

IV.Isyung Panlipunan

        Ang diskriminasyon sa bawat isa at ang pagkawalan ng nationalismo sa sariling bansa.

V.Gintong Aral

Ang gintong aral na ating mapupulot sa kabanata na ito ay ang pagiging maunawain at pagmahal sa kapwa tao o kababayan. Dapat rin natin mahalin ang ating sariling bansa kahit nasa peligro dahil tayo at tayo lamang ang makakapagtanggol nito.
