pg.34 “Who is to say that robbing a people of its language is less violent tan war?” This reminds me of a video that I saw on social media that some old women were telling a Spanish speaking person to speak in English because they are in America so they have to speak in English. The person got made and told the ladies that if it is his native language he will speak it.

Lower-income students who attend elite colleges fare even better on average than low-income students elsewhere
I think it's important to note that there is no evidence listed for this. This sentence really stood to to me because it is a claim that might not be factual but is making readers believe that only going to an elite college will make you more successful. This reminds me of high school because many counselors and educators often told students that the school you attend does not matter as much as what you make out of the school you attend. I do not think the author realized the confusion it would cause adding this line.
-
On these more typical campuses, students often work while they’re going to college. Some are military veterans, others learned English as a second language and others are in their mid-20s or 30s.
This stands out to me because it is listing different groups of specific people to show how they are excelling. I believe they added this to show that these are groups people might not think of often in college but are groups that are excelling. This was interesting to me because I am a first generation student so I am usually placed into a group of people as well. It also reminds me of high school and grouping different type of people who get college education.
-
Because the elite colleges aren’t fulfilling that responsibility, working-class colleges have become vastly larger engines of social mobility.
This is an interesting claim to me because if it is in fact true, then why would people ever promote going to more elite schools over working-class ones. I feel like an idea is instilled in many kids minds that it is better to try to go to a more elite school because they will probably fare better after college, but if working-class colleges can do help you the same or even better, should going to a more reputable school even matter? Also, is it worth spending more money on college in this case too. it reminds me of how my mom would try to steer me away from going to city college in high school because she thought that going to a university would be better for me. But would she have thought differently if she saw this claim?

when the teller tells the tale, that teller is not bound to follow chronological order; events can be presented in any order the teller finds most effective.
This makes me think of the many shows that use the use of flashbacks or breakaways. While maybe not the "best" example, this reminds me of Family Guy. The show uses many breakaway gags and completely "irrelevant" things in order to tell that week's story. Seth McFarlane does not need to say "a happened so b happened then c happened" in order to get a point across. He can say "a happened (cut away to b happening) and so c happened". The order in which we have things told to us can play just as important of a role as the story itself.

others, like The Wonder Thars, make oral narration an inte-gral, ongoing facet of the text. Narrative theory helps us break down such voice-over narrators into two types: those who are situated outside of the story they relate, and those who also double as characters within that · h t t· 29 story.
This reminds me of the TV show "Jane the Virgin" that just ended. It had a narrator (outside of the story) that was an integral part in the show. It recently just ended, and the last episode revealed who the narrator was - which actually ended up being a character in the show. I thought this was a really cool way to end the show and tie it all together.

He simply assumed that since he had stated a claim before that it was evidence for his other claims. Which was one of the biggest issues I had with his text.

These types of poetry of witness are important accounts of the human reaction to mass trauma.

The continued imagery of the veil used through Du Bois' work stands out for me - it reminds me of a bride, wearing white. The whiteness of the veil's imagery emphasises issues of race in this passage. interesting also, the veil seems to have been placed on him by the 'other world' in order to 'shut him out' from 'their' world - they don't want him in 'their world' yet thrust a strikingly white object upon him.

In war, nobody is in control, though everyone likes to pretend they are.

When Max Gluckman succeeded Godfrey Wilson as the Institute's second director, the basic categories for apprehending that transformation were al-tered from "primitive" and "civilized" to "tribal" and "industrial
This line from Asad's text reminds me of the idea of "mental mapping of reality" introduced in Guest's second chapter. "Mental mapping of reality" is a tool used by humans to categorize the world into sections that we may use to better understand a topic; anthropologists use mental mapping to assist them in answering the general questions they have when conducting their studies. Asad contends that functional anthropologists were examining "the "modern" change in colonial Africa as they were reconstructing "traditional" cultures" (Asad 318). Perhaps the basic categories were changed from "primitive life and civilization" to "tribal and industrial" because these new categories helped anthropologists create a more accurate mental map of reality that helped them better understand that which they sought to answer.

The "learning styles" idea has snowballed—as late as 2014, more than 90 percent of teachers in various countries believed it. The concept is intuitively appealing, promising to reveal secret brain processes with just a few questions.
The author believes "learning styles" is all an idea because it has introduced educators to a "new" way of reaching students. They do not believe it is actually helpful and is something the author explicitly states throughout the rest of the article as well. I believe they do a well job of elaborating their ideas and why they think like this but they are doing so very aggressively which might offend some readers. This reminds me of a time in high school where we focused on making sure our ideas were not being expressed to aggressively based on feelings but rather on facts.

It is also important for the teachers to enjoy beingwith the other teachers, to enjoy seeing the childrenstretch their capacities and use their intelligences, toenjoy interactions with the children.
This reminds me of a Rinaldi quote from the Bambini reading; "You have to sustain a teacher for her to become the teacher that his school needs". Children are so perceptive and are skilled at reading teachers emotions and relationships with one another...if we aren't engaged, happy, and in-sync with our co-teachers than we cannot provide an optimal learning environment

Educators may actually be doing a disservice to auditory learners by continually accommodating their auditory learning style,” they wrote, “rather than focusing on strengthening their visual word skills.”
This fact coincides with the sentence earlier in the piece that mentioned that students will often blame their teacher for their lack of success in learning something. I find it interesting that students feel that it is entirely the teacher's responsibility to accommodate them in their specific learning needs, when in reality, everyone should be taught on the same level or playing field, and this way everyone is strengthening their learning skills in all areas. This reminds me of teachers whose teaching styles I have loved, whereas classmates who aren't finding success in that class bashed the teacher and attributed their poor performance in the class to the teaching style being implemented. This is most likely because people who are frustrated or overwhelmed often look for something or someone to place the blame on, but the issue at hand is that some people cannot adapt to different teaching styles, which should be the main focus as opposed to having the teacher adapt to every student's learning style.
-
they’ve already been told ‘You’re a visual learner.’” Or aural, or what have you.
This is very interesting to me, and it seems like the issue at hand is that many teachers will try to categorize or label students, who will in turn take this information being handed to them by a teacher, who is an authority figure that they presumably trust. This could create many issues when the students identify as whatever category they've been placed into and they are more closed off to trying different styles of learning. I had never realized the adverse effects of trying to label a student's learning style, but this is got me thinking, and now reminds of the different groups students were separated into in my middle school based on their learning style. I am realizing why these groups were not particularly helpful, and the groups didn't increase students' potential or the class grade average.

This line from Socrates is very interesting because of the truthfulness that lies within it. Socrates is addressing the fact that we can't hold opinions if we don't understand why we have them and what they mean. This reminds me of the "think before you speak" phrase because if you don't actually know what you are talking about you are going to sound unintelligent, or in Socrates words, you will sound "ugly." This is especially true of opinions because when people argue that their opinion is right but have absolutely no evidence to support their opinion it is hard to take their opinion seriously. I find Socrates' words to be very relevant to our own lives because people are constantly sharing their opinions on abortion, the crisis at the border, and gun control, but are lacking reason behind their beliefs. There are people who have very strong opinions on how to handle each one of these situations, but when you question their opinions (whether you are with them or against) they don’t have anything to support their beliefs which makes it too easy to discredit or ignore what they have to say. Therefore if we can be more knowledgeable about out opinions more people would listen and take the time to understand.

The way in which we experience and interpret the world obviously depends very much indeed on the kind of ideas that fill our minds.
p. 399 paragraph 4 line 1
I like that this emphasizes the issue of education both enlightening, as well as being something that may for some, be detrimental. The intellectual quest of finding reason and purpose in the world is something all humans share, even if we dont realize it, and if what we already know about the world isn't fully completed in our minds, we will take big ideas that someone may conjure and percieve them as the truth.
This reminds me of the flat-earth society. The reason that people have begun to go along with this belief is because they do not know exactly what kind of world they are living in. With the unfilled knowledge of our world, these people will begin to question what we've been told and begin to find 'evidence' of what could be a completely different model than the one we learned in 3rd grade. And because these people look for only the facts supporting the flat-earth model and little against it, they will be locked into a confirmation bias that skews their judgement and fills the hole of information they do not understand.

Last, we were after something that was happening at x=1x=1x = 1 and we couldn’t actually plug x=1x=1x = 1 into our formula for the slope. Despite this limitation we were able to determine some information about what was happening at x=1x=1x = 1 simply by looking at what was happening around x=1x=1x = 1. This is more important than you might at first realize and we will be discussing this point in detail in later sections.
This reminds me of the exercise we had this morning in class.

Web development is the Red Queen of the Red Queen’s Race: no matter how hard we work, there we are still in the same place. We know this and, as a group, have largely accepted this. But it’s also the Wire Mommy. It is an unloving, harsh parent that buys our loyalty. It is the joyless experience that we think we deserve.
Accepting the rules of the Red Queen's Race. We are in a constant state of not only staying up-to-date but trying to look ahead at what is around the bend.
Reminds me of what Frank Chimero gets at in his essay "Everything Easy is Hard Again" (source).

marriage
I’m really surprised indeed. Mrs. Mooney herself has suffered from her marriage. Why is she still maintaining the view women is to be honored by marriage? I initially thought that Mrs. Mooney kinda breaks down the social conventions and are able to live a confident life as a single mother. Apparently she is still clutching to social norms in here. Again reminds me of Eveline. They both once made me feel that they are different, that they have this conscious and courage, but eventually they fall back.

Her eyes gave him no sign of love or farewell or recognition.
This sentence reminds me of Mansfield's short story "Her first Ball", in which the main female protagonist also becomes incapable of "recognizing" her older male dance partner after she extracts herself from his unsolicited digression on old age. Perhaps computational text analysis could help us chart scenes of "un-recognition" taking place after important character awakening moments in 20th-c literature.

Divergent responses to annotation demonstrate what Foucault means by power running through the whole social body.
How would this have worked in pre-literate societies? Examples?
"the whole social body" also reminds me of the idea of the "Great Chain of Being" to consider how differences in annotation may change and evolve in societies over long periods of time. I can't help but consider Richard Dawkins' original conceptualization of the "meme" and how they move through societies with or without literacy skills.

three types
While the authors discussed each of these "types" above, I was looking for a more clear discussion of how they conceptualize each of these concepts. Academic articles can be long and it's easy to lose track of thoughts you had early on, so figure out a system of marking or recording questions that works for you. I like to highlight in a unique color that reminds me to revisit an idea after I've read the entire article. For example, perhaps they do a better job describing these "types" later in the paper.

How on earth are you going to drink water when they tell us that you risk getting cancer after years of drinking it? Who will want to drink it?
This reminds me of something we've been discussing, which is the relationship between the powerful and the powerless. These people keep digging holes in a last-ditch effort to find clean water, rather than stopping use of the pesticide. To them, the outcome does not matter because it's not their health and livelihood at stake. This is a good example of those in power making minimal efforts to help the powerless.

but she had just time to read: “Waltz 3. ‘Two, Two in a Canoe.’ Polka 4. ‘Making the Feathers Fly,’” when Meg cried, “Ready, Leila?” and they pressed their way through the crush in the passage towards the big double doors of the drill hall.
I see Katherine Mansfield is good at illustrating the atmosphere of preparing an events with the busyness and excitement that characters throw among their conversation and by mentioning musical pieces, the band, and party dresses. In this situation or atmosphere, the main female character is dealing with psychological turbulence or nervousness. This scene of the story reminds me of the Garden Party, in a sense that a group of people based on family members are busy preparing for the event.

He repeats this word many times. It reminds me of the line from The Emperor's New Groove: "Oh, right. The poison. The poison for Kuzco, the poison chosen especially to kill Kuzco, Kuzco's poison." in which slightly different phrases that mean exactly the same thing are said so much that it's completely overdone and almost comedic, which stands in stark contrast to the event that had just occurred. As the father had just died and the children are in mourning, society expects that no one would laugh so soon afterwards.

the sheet up to her chin
It makes me feel like if she is drowning. Her pose reminds me of Ophelia’s death in Hamlet. Like even though she is still physically alive, her mind is so unsettled that she drowns herself in her thoughts, and these thoughts bothers her, dragging down to a deeper abyss. It is not that she is evil, it’s just the sense of despair within her. Describing her as a statue staring at the ceiling creates this sense of infinity as well, like as if she is kept in this state, not able to get out.

This reminds me of the opossum that lived in the bush outside my dad's window for a month. My dad is a light sleeper and sleeps with the window open in the summer. The opossum liked to scream in the middle of the night when the dogs bothered the neighbor's dogs. My dad got tired of constantly waking up exhausted so he trapped the opossum and set it free a few fields away in hopes the opossum got the hint. It never came back so I guess the opossum got the hint.

The emperor holds a stick in his hands, both ends parallel to the horizon, while the candidates, advancing one by one, sometimes leap over the stick, sometimes creep under it, backwards and forwards several times, according as the stick is advanced or depressed. Sometimes the emperor holds one end of the stick, and his first minister the other: sometimes the minister has it entirely to himself. Whoever performs his part with most agility, and holds out the longest in leaping and creeping, is rewarded with the blue-colored silk; the yellow is given to the next, and the green to the third, which they all wear girt twice about the middle; and you see few great persons round about this court who are not adorned with one of these girdles.

foreign varnish
I find this term interesting. A varnish is "a clear transparent hard protective finish or film. Varnish has little or no color and has no added pigment as opposed to paint or wood stain which contains pigment" (Wikipedia). From this, I infer that Betteredge thinks all the other "personalities" of Franklin are just protective guises and the true Franklin is the one he likes the most, which is an awfully selective way of viewing a person. Varnish is also added upon a painting and wood of furniture, which reminds me of the painting he did with Rachel, and the cabinet. Perhaps he has something to do with the missing Diamond, as the Diamond is associated with those things as well.
-
The Devil (or the Diamond)
For someone who purports he doesn't believe in superstition (or "hocus-pocus"), Betteredge's language is very superstitious. An explanation for the awkward dinner party could be because everyone's mind are on the diamond (they want it for themselves). This reminds me of the scene in the beginning with the quicksand when Rosanna describes the sand as looking like "hundreds of suffocating people," like the dozen of people at the party suffocating under the heavy atmosphere, failing at conversation. All because the (moon)stone was thrown into the party.

I think Theseus would have enjoyed the World Wide Web in 1997; the adventure and excitement that it fostered. Its labyrinthine shape full of passages, turns, tunnels, and the unknown. Websites often eschewed the formal navigation systems we have come to rely on and expect in favour of more open-ended or casual solutions. Moving around a site—much like moving around the Web in general—was a journey that embraced the forking, wandering naturing of hypertext and allowed the user—with varying degrees of agency—to choose their own path through cyberspace, the hero of their own self-authored epic.
Love the idea of the web as a labyrinth. It reminds me of what was espoused of in Eastgate Systems' Hypertext Gardens and Mike Caulfield's view of the ideal web as a garden.

The [missionaries] approach people in provinces and districts to make them their followers, and let them destroy shrines and temples. This is an unheard of outrage. When a vassal receives a province, a district, a village or another form of a fief, he must consider it as a property entrusted to him on a temporary basis. He must follow the laws of this country, and abide by their intent. However, some vassals illegally [commend part of their fiefs to the church]. This is a culpable offense
It is especially interesting to me that the exclusion of missionaries and the destruction of their shrines and temples is unheard of. This act kind of reminds me of entrusting one's money in a bank and then that bank invests the money without the true owner of the money approving, but that investment goes bad and so the original owner does not get their money back. This is what led to the economic crash in 2008 and is very similar to this. These vassals are entrusted, temporarily, with the land of the missionaries. And yet they still perform very subtle exclusions of the missionaries. Some destroyed the homes and land which, in my opinion, was probably the most common way of expelling the missionaries. In reality, the vassals were donating the land to the church, thus getting the missionaries out while still looking great in the eyes of the church and to the community.

Let the scenes abound with light, especially coloured and varied; and let the masquers, or any other that are to come down from the scene, have some motions upon the scene it self before their coining down; for it draws the eye strangely, and makes it with great pleasure to desire to see that it cannot perfectly discern. Let the songs be loud and cheerful, and not chirpings or pulings: let the music likewise be sharp and loud, and well placed. The colours that show best by candle-light, are white, carnation, and a kind of sea-water green and ouches, or spangs, as they are of no great cost, so they are of most glory.
This scene sounds so pretty. It reminds me of a scene from one of my favorite movies Labyrinth.

Exit.
I think this is the "darkest" story we've read in this course thus far. I pretty much enjoyed it because it deals with contrasting themes that fascinate me, such as good vs. evil, damnaton vs. salvation, destiny vs. free will, and power vs. knowledge. This story somehow reminds me of The Canterbury Tales, since both stories question whether a sinner can be pardoned and the reasons why humans are aware of sin and damnation but are not totally understand its importance. Sadly, Faustus doesn't repent in the end, because his heart is "hardened," and he's always struggling to find reasons to renounce magic and repent. He never repents because he loses faith in God and of course, in himself.

Right off the bat, the speaker gives us this image of a generation subjected to chaos and madness. This generation is vulnerable and weak apparently. He uses the words "destroyed" and "staving" which reminds me of Eliot's "Wasteland". In both texts, society is described as something that is falling apart and out of control. Both authors focus on this destruction of society and consciousness which plagues American society.

I've been trying to find a way to make reference to Lewis Carrol's "Through the Looking Glass." It's basic but the whole premise of the story is that Alice enters a mirror image of her world, but everything is reversed, including logic. It very much reminds me of this story where Louise, through learning this language, is able to think in the complete opposite way that she is used to.
I held out hope that the times this story mentioned "the looking glass" was not a coincidence, and I like to think it wasn't.

My professor shows us slides, but, um, the book is not used at all
The student's description of the course reminds me that conversations about OER go hand-in-hand with conversations about pedagogy. How does adopting and (co)creating OER texts affect the how's and why's of teaching and learning? And for instructors (and students) new to OER, how can they receive support before, during, and after the use/creation of an OER text?

Enter the Ghost of Caesar. How ill this taper burns! Ha, who comes here? I think it is the weakness of mine eyes That shapes this monstrous apparition. It comes upon me. Art thou anything? Art thou some god, some angel, or some devil That makest my blood cold and my hair to stare? Speak to me what thou art. GHOST. Thy evil spirit, Brutus. BRUTUS. Why comest thou? GHOST. To tell thee thou shalt see me at Philippi. BRUTUS. Well, then I shall see thee again? GHOST. Ay, at Philippi. BRUTUS. Why, I will see thee at Philippi then. Exit Ghost.
Written Text: The Ghost of Caesar can be taken literally as a foreshadowing message from the grave which in my opinion would be very boring. The ghost of Caesar has to symbolise the state of mind Brutus is now in, seeing him from a very logistical man to someone speaking to his own guilty subconscious. The ghost could have been any random ghost, so why does Shakespeare choose Caesar? By making Brutus very tired and almost asleep from reading a book, the audience questions whether the ghost is really there. I also love the very succinct conversation between Brutus and the ghost, reminds my of the interaction between the narrator and raven in "The Raven" by Edgar Allen Poe

JOURNAL OF EDUCATION 77 Several children: (Groan) Not again. Mr. B, we done this yesterday. Child: Do we put the date? Teacher: Yes. I hope we remember we work in silence. You're supposed to do it on white paper. I'll ex- plain it later. Child: Somebody broke my pencil. (Crash- a child falls out of his chair.) Child: (repeats) Mr. B.; somebody broke my pencil! Child: Are we going to be here all morning? (Teacher comes to the observer, shakes his head and grimaces, then smiles.) The children are successful enough in their struggle against work that there are long periods where they are not asked to do any work, but just to sit and be quiet.9 Very often the work that the teachers assign is "easy," that is, not demanding, and thus receives less resistance. Some

The "New Negro" of the 1920s is well educated and has a resilience and drive to succeed. This kind of determination reminds me of "I Too Sing America" by Langston Hughes. A Black American who reads this poem can hope to be rejuvenated by Brown's words and take pride and comfort in being Black and working towards a brighter future.

Something about the wording here reminds me of a prostitute or a street walker. I wonder if they are sex-workers out of necessity and how poverty has afflicted them and what role their culture plays in their condition.
Are they the same as the "half-clad" girls mentioned later in the poem?

“In the past, a common curriculum did not materialize because teachers had not bought in. Involving teachers was the most powerful thing we have done. They were at the table deciding what our students would learn and how they would learn it. Everything else followed.”
This reminds me of something my school is trying to do this year. Technically we've had a schoolwide writing curriculum, but so few teachers implemented it that it was rendered ineffective. Every teacher, regardless of content area, is supposed to use this writing program so we have consistency as a school. This year, our principal intends to enforce this program and if all participate, I'm excited to see the results.

“I want to be a poet–not a Negro poet,” meaning, I believe, “I want to write like a white poet”; meaning subconsciously, “I would like to be a white poet”; meaning behind that, “I would like to be white.
This reminds me of the double-consciousness that is always present in W.E.B Du Bois. Thinking of the artist in relation to how he sees himself and how he is perceived by others. Not so much as that the young poet wants to be white, but that whiteness is more important than being an artist. This reminds me of the new critics we discussed in class a couple of weeks ago, thinking of the American identity moving away from the Eurocentric culture in the arts. With this essay, Langston moves even further making specific to African American identity and thinking little of what the white man thinks of his poetry. It makes me thing about how we tend to read the artist into his/her art, would Hughes consider that the artist is irrelevant after he/she is separated from the art? Is there such a thing as art that is independent from its creator?
-
One sees immediately how difficult it would be for an artist born in such a home to interest himself in interpreting the beauty of his own people. He is never taught to see that beauty
This reminds me of the "double-consciousness" that W.E.B. Du Bois spoke of in "Of Our Spiritual Strivings." The African American artist, having been raised in a home that devalues his or her own being, one that teaches him or her to act in accordance with the views and expectations of the external world, will have to struggle with the "sense of always looking at one's self through the eyes of others" (Du Bois). This can be very crippling for an artist to develop his or her own individual voice.

but if any man goes out of the city to which he belongs without leave, and is found rambling without a passport, he is severely treated, he is punished as a fugitive, and sent home disgracefully; and, if he falls again into the like fault, is condemned to slavery.
Crazy but this kind of reminds me of the way the illegal immigrants get treated sometimes while being punished by being in camps and being treated ill and being separated from their families and months later being sent home. Just saying.

; for if you suffer your people to be ill-educated, and their manners to be corrupted from their infancy, and then punish them for those crimes to which their first education disposed them, what else is to be concluded from this but that you first make thieves and then punish them?’
This statement is true. You really can not fully judge them or blame them for committing crimes that make sense to them. maybe its the only way for them to get buy. This sort of reminds me of Maslows Hierarchy of Needs and how self actualization comes last and first for most is food and shelter and if those needs are not met than the person moral compass is not fully developed and their decision making is altered as well.

I am resigning from the American Legion It reminds me of a dog I used to have That picked up toads in her mouth And was sick of the yellow acid in their glands But did it again and again, the dumb fool And the more misery and famine and bunk The more the Legion seems to like it. But I am not a dog and can understand That now is the time to end capitalism.
The speaker views capitalism as an illness that exists in America. Moreover, the image of the toad-eating dog is oddly reminiscent of a drug addict who seeks to quit their addiction but continues to use regardless. Just like the dog continuously devours the toads which make it sick, a heroin addict will work endlessly to obtain their next dose. The author brings up the misery and dreadfulness which comes along with this type of behavior but comments that the worse the problem gets, the more the powerful individuals in charge seem to enjoy it.
-

Modernists seem to rely on images in their poetry. I think this a great example of an extension of modernism. The speaker uses the image of the dog to describe the Legion and even without the context of what exactly it is, I can make out some kind of idea.

Comrade Lenin of Russia Rises in the marble tomb: On guard with the fighters forever – – The world is our room!

-
The million men and a million boys, come out of hell and crawling back, maybe they don’t know what they’re saying, maybe they don’t dare but they know what they mean:
This reminds me of “The Waste Land” as the ideas of the horrors of war seep into the following decades. “Dempsey” a boxer who signifies the battle fought as the U.S is trying to fix the problem of the world and sacrificing a “million men and a million boys" in the process not knowing if their sacrifice was worth it for the following generations.

DA Damyata: The boat responded
The voice from above that seems to provide the least guideline in navigating through the waste land are mere fragments; they are thunderings from the sky. Although slightly different, this reminds me of the idea of lightning casting light on the horizon, but only doing so momentarily.

What are the roots that clutch, what branches grow Out of this stony rubbish? Son of man, You cannot say, or guess, for you know only A heap of broken images, where the sun beats, And the dead tree gives no shelter, the cricket no relief, And the dry stone no sound of water.
This reminds me of the fragments theme we discussed in class. All that we are able to take hold of are "a heap of broken images" in this waste land. There's no center, no orienting point of departure; it's all wandering through an arid land.
This "fragment" image occurs at the ends of the poem, too; in that case, with the thunders (cf. comments there).
