    1. What makes him happiest now is for other Egyptians to realize that they can do it, too.

      I really like this and appreciate the fact that Salah enjoys being an inspiration for other Muslims. I can see the beginning of this article being read like the BuzzFeed video that we watched on class on Thursday. Salah feeling as if he is an inspiration for other Muslims (rather than being a wonderful representation of Islam for people in Britain) reminds me of the response video that we watched after.

    1. n sit on a log and cry

      This post reminds me of the book, Soul Is Here For Its Own Joy-Robert Bly. I think I understand Caileigh. Such a creative and captivating way to share a little about who you are!

    1. students can give voice to their experiences and think critically about how their personal perspectives are part of a broader dialogue.

      This line reminds me of Gholnecsar E. Muhammad's article Creating Spaces for Black Adolescent Girls to “Write It Out!” She writes, "As teachers design writing pedagogy for students, we must establish a “literary presence,” or an environment in which students can share their voices and visions as they explore themselves through writing (8)". In turn, by honoring students' writing practices and giving them the time and space to write, we as educators, promote literacy that is already practiced by the students themselves. In other words, a space is created where students feel valued and a critical literacy perspective can be emphasized through multi-modal literacy.

    1. Another common pitfall for students with ADHD is the feeling that they are instantly cured upon graduating from high school and no longer require supports and/or treatment at the college level. A young adult with ADHD may not want to be different than their peers and may hope that they can leave their ADHD behind in high school.

      This reminds me of the document on stigma I included in my first answer draft. The transition to college is scary for everyone, and students don't want to be different or singled out.

    1. The sea air and sea bathing together were nearly infallible, one or the other of them being a match for every disorder of the stomach, the lungs or the blood

      This paragraph about the healing powers of the sea seems to be a dip into romanticism. The belief that the unfiltered nature can and will do so much for you reminds me a lot of what we dealt with with Marianne and Wilhoughby. Less relevantly, I miss the ocean.

    1. Furthermore, the postcolonial pursuit of resources is fundamentally an anthropocentric model, as land, water, air, animals, and plants are never able to become postcolonial;they remain objects to be exploited by the empowered postcolonial subject.

      This reminds me of resource extraction in recently independent countries in Africa and Asia. These countries are abused by financial stronger countries in order to extract resources. The wealthier colonizing countries continue to gain natural resources and the colonized countries face environmental degradation. I see similarities to that idea in this paragraph.

    2. project. “[S]hifting lines of the international division of labor” (Spivak, 1985, p.84) bisect the very category of labor into caste-like bodies built for work on one hand and rewardable citizen-workers on the other. Some labor becomes settler, while excess labor becomes enslavable, criminal, murderable.

      This section reminds me of an article that we read for my Indian Ocean Worlds history class. The article Forced laborers and their resistance in Java under Japanese military rule, 1942–45 by Shigeru Sato describes the use of Javanese people as forced labor in World War ll and how they pushed back against this oppression. In both classes, people are viewed as labor resources that can be exploited by a colonial power. The Javanese are sent by train across the country to grow rice, and build infrastructure projects. The removal and forced labor are pushed back against by working slowly and running away. This designation of oppressed people as labor is line that can be drawn across colonial regimes.

    3. n particular, describing all struggles against imperialism as ‘decolonizing’ creates a convenient ambiguity between decolonization and social justice work,especially among people of color, queer people, and other groups minoritized by the settler nation-state. ‘We are all colonized,’ may be a true statement but is deceptively embracive and vague, its inference: ‘None of us are settlers.’ Equivocation, or callingeverything by the same name, is a move towards innocence that is especially vogue in coalition politics among people of color

      Category 1: Close Reading

      This passage reminds me a little of the Paris reading we did last week. I don't think these two are saying the same message (altough I would imagine the authors would agree with each other), however, I think there is a link between what both authors are saying. The commonality I found is that both authors are saying we need to be better in the language we use. Some of the things we are saying -- "none of us are settlers", "cultural relevance" -- aren't helping make change happen.

      This passage in particular is reminds me of the phrase "all lives matter". This phrase is, as the passage says, "creates a convenient ambiguity between decolonization and social justice work, especially among people of color, queer people, and other groups minoritized by the settler nation-state." Saying "all lives matter" is blatantly ignoring the actual issues that sparked the "Black lives matter" movement in addition to trying to relieve responsability from themselves. This language and ideology does nothing to actually work towards any form of decolonization.

    4. Of course, dressing up in the language of decolonization is not as offensive as “Navajo print” underwear sold at a clothing chain store (Gaynor, 2012)and other appropriations of Indigenous cultures and materials that occur so frequently.Yet, this kind of inclusion is a form of enclosure, dangerous in how it domesticates decolonization. It is also a foreclosure, limiting in how it recapitulates dominant theories of social change

      Category 1: Opinion

      This really reminds me of the cultural appropriation/appreciation arguement. I think that a lot of people with idenities of power want to feel that they are helping "end racism" without actually listening to the people experiencing marginalization and the people doing the anti-racist groundwork (e.g. "blending cultures" by purchasing offensive "Navajo pring underwear").

    1. progressive, contextual reading of the Quran

      This reminds me of Shariati's idea of the Qu'ran as "living constitution" as discussed by Kohn and McBride in the Westoxification reading. According to Shariati and Lamrabet, the Qu'ran should not be considered a universal model for all times and places; rather, it should be interpreted according to the historical context.

    1. THY restless feet now cannot go

      This line reminds me of Exodus 33:14 in the Bible. It says "And He said, "My presence shall go with you, and I will give you rest." I would say that in this first line, Crashaw is saying that THY meaning Christ cannot go and there is eternal life in Christ.

  2. Nov 2018
    1. they might love each other as if one.

      I like this idea a lot, reminds me of the "bone of my bone flesh of my flesh" recognition in Genesis as well.

    1. I had begun to think of social movements’ abilities in terms of “capacities”—like the muscles one develops while exercising but could be used for other purposes like carrying groceries or walking long distances—and their repertoire of pro-test, like marches, rallies, and occupations as “signals” of those capacities.

      I find it interesting that she's using words from information theory like "capacities" and "signals" here. It reminds me of the thesis of Caesar Hidalgo's Why Information Grows and his ideas about links. While within the social milieu, links may be easier to break with new modes of communication, what most protesters won't grasp or have the time and patience for is the recreation of new links to create new institutions for rule. As seen in many war torn countries, this is the most difficult part. Similarly campaigning is easy, governing is much harder.

      As an example: The US government's breaking of the links of military and police forces in post-war Iraq made their recovery process far more difficult because all those links within the social hierarchy and political landscape proved harder to reconstruct.

    1. Another domain of daily life that has only recently emerged is virtual daily behavior or how people act and interact with others on the Internet

      This reminds me of our backstage and frontstage topic. We tend to broadcast good and happy things online and but we can act differently irl

    2. . However, what does this tell us about helping behaviors in the real world?

      This reminds me of an article I read when I was carrying out research in the field of Educational Psychology, "Psychology: The Hardest Science of All". The argument that research in the psychological field will always be harder and/or more complex because, unlike Physics, Chemistry, Biology and all, there is no fixed answer for anything, thus, generalisations can never be made.

    1. Learning Through Making

      Again, really reminds me of sports. You often learn through doing. It doesn't mean you can't student tapes and plays and information. But, we often grow as an athlete through getting out there and doing. I do believe it's the same with learning. I learn so much quicker when I see someone do something...typically in a few mins, I can do it too. Making is that same thing, you learn through doing it....

    1. With more desire to know, and to reject Envious commands, invented with designe To keep them low whom knowledge might exalt [ 525 ] Equal with Gods; aspiring to be such,

      This may seem less relevant. Is inquiring a virtue or a sin? Or to be more specific, does being able to inquire render Adam and Eve gods? Though God says he punishes them because of disobedience, is that really true? This reminds me of some monarchy governments that forbid civilians to inquire. What makes God God Almighty and what makes those government horrible rulers?

    1. For tech firms, he argued in one interview, a goal should be to “have positive content pushed out about your company and negative content that’s being pushed out about your competitor.”

      Reminds me a bit of an old adage within CAA, but this one is far more toxic than the positive version that CAA used. Theirs amounted to occupying executives with CAA client meetings and material so they just didn't have time to handle other talent.

    1. Models such as these might lead us to suspect that what we need may be less an innovation in the delivery system for higher education today than a new conception of the community that we are building both within our institutions and between those institutions and the public they should serve

      This discussion reminds me of a few episodes of season one of the podcast Revisionist History by Malcolm Gladwell. He discusses philanthropy, university grants and how different models can support either 1) a few geniuses or 2) many average people. Here is a link to what I think is the correct episode (but it's worth listening to them all to get to the point, if you're interested in the topic of educational equity. Also: it is definitely just an amazing podcast!)

      http://revisionisthistory.com/episodes/06-my-little-hundred-million

    1. lebrity endorsements are a frequent feature in commercials aimed at children.

      This reminds me of an ad that Kylie Jenner posted on her Instagram story a couple weeks ago. It was for a product called "Sugar Bear Hair" and she explained that the product has worked wonders on her hair. Not going to lie, when I saw the ad I was convinced that I should get it.

    1. It’s possible that the time away allowed me to see institutional structures with fresh eyes, freeing me from the assumption that things simply are the way they are in some unchangeable sense and permitting a broader view of the possibilities.

      Reminds me of our optimist/pessimist discussion in class on what seemed like the "unchangeable" parts of scholarly work. Perhaps it can be altered in the future.

    1. our culture develops and enacts change without much regard for underlying values.

      this reminds me of free software and its idea of changing culture by embedding new values into digital infrastructure via software licenses (mainly the GPL) to enable and in some way enforce collaboration and openness. But this value focussed approach was depolitized later by the open source movement, mainly because of the disarticulation of the free software movement from alternative socioeconomic models and discourses.

    1. till at last Satan, whom now transcendent glory rais'd Above his fellows, with Monarchal pride Conscious of highest worth, unmov'd thus spake.

      Satan sounds heroic here.This reminds me of when Agamemnon searches for someone among the Achaeans to lead them into battle and Patroclus assumes the task and wears Achille's armor into battle.

    1. three publishers account for more than 47% of all papers

      This reminds me of Hebe Vessuri's lecture, particularly when thinking about the proportion of papers released by the top five publishers compared to other publishers. This contributes to a lack of visibility of other voices in the scholarly community.

    1. Your blackness and your otherness are in your face every day in the lunchroom and at recess. It was a three-tiered view of life: You’re already a foreigner in America. And now, among African Americans, you’re African, which is another strike against you. And even in your own family, you’re not the same—you’re starting to become more Americanized.”

      Shows how she faced prejudice in multiple ways at once, reminds me of "There is No Hierarchy of Oppressions"

    1. Before this course, I thought earthquakes were caused by _______. Now I understand them to be the result of _______.

      This reminds me a lot of NGSS in that at the start of a unit of study students make predictions based on a photo or video and throughout the unit and at the end of the unit they revisit their predictions and show/discuss what they learned throughout the unit.

    1. The Oriental is irrational, depraved (fallen), childlike, “different”; thus the European is rational, virtuous, mature, “norma

      Orient as irrational, reminds me of how some thinkers thought of tribal religions

    2. Two great themes dominate his remarks here and in what will follow: knowledge and power, the Baconian themes

      knowledge of the Orient, power over the Orient, reminds me of Foucault as well

    1. tal media have created new possibilities for civic and political participation

      This reminds me of how many voting posts were made online! Especially before and during the midterm elections!

    1. For example, someone high in SDO would likely be upset if someone from an outgroup moved into his or her neighborhood. It’s not that the person high in SDO wants to “control” what this outgroup member does; it’s that moving into this “nice neighborhood” disrupts the social hierarchy the person high in SDO believes in (i.e. living in a nice neighborhood denotes one’s place in the social hierarchy—a place reserved for one’s in-group members).

      This reminds me so much of the series Elite. Guzman must have had a high level of SDO, since he was so unhappy when the newbies arrived at his school.

    2. Openly expressing prejudice is like blowing second-hand cigarette smoke in someone’s face: It’s just not done any more in most circles, and if it is, people are readily criticized for their behavior.

      This reminds me of my school. Currently, you cannot make any prejudicial statement and expect people to let it pass. There is always someone courageous enough o point out teh wrongdoing.

    1. And it's little I'd mind the fuss they'll make, Huddled dead in a ditch somewhere.

      I love how she phrases this. It reminds me of how a lot of people say "why do this because you can't take it to your grave." Don't do things for the approval of others because what will it matter once you're dead.

    1. Instead, it was taken at face value and this triggered the need to explain such poor results.

      This reminds me of international research in education comparing the results of different countries (PISA, for instance), which tends to cause countries to lose local perspective and focus on their rank without questioning the legitimacy of those types of measures.

    2. This also reminds us that a misplaced obsession with flawed conceptions of ‘international’ or ‘mainstream’ science has been in place for decades.

      This resonates with me. How often are we caught up in the latest 'trend' in research?

    1. It is about how the physical organization of our neighborhoods, cities, and metropolitan areas affects our practices of political expression and debate—the ways we represent our histories to one another, render and negotiate our differences, and determine together our future.

      This reminds me of "form generates function." Interesting how grammar can relate to the physical as well.

    Annotators

    1. He waswrong about the “merely,” however, forthere is nothing more important forhuman adaptation than the manner inwhich we perform our roles as actors inthe everyday theatre of social life.

      This reminds me so much of the feeling you get if you have ever had a out of body experience. I was in a bad car accident just a little over a year ago and I felt like I could see everything going on around me and everyone was just actors. I wonder if there is a psychological connection between self and out of body experiences, considering you feel like your watching yourself.

    1. when young people, ook, called for a general strike to support striking workers at a state-run textife factory. The general strike failed, giving lie to the miraculous powers fre­quently ascribed to Facebook and other social media. T

      This use of Social Media in political revolution gathering reminds me of Erducan's FaceTime to gather people, when their was a military coupe in Istanbul against him in 2016. Social media has become a huge part of gathering the masses for important events such as revolutions.

    1. “to buy groceries at a Hamden shopping center three miles away,” the public housing residents would “have to travel into New Haven to get around the fence,

      Did most people end up taking this trip or did they resort to other methods to find food? This reminds me of people not having access to health care because a trip might take as long.

    2. Courts have similarly upheld residency restrictions that prevent some individuals from using public facilities such as beaches, sports courts, and playgrounds on the grounds that residents’ taxes and fees resulted in con-struction of those facilities, and so residents should be given use priorit

      reminds me of a park in Menlo Park (esentially East Palo Alto), where residents of Menlo Park (mostly white) get to use the field more than East Palo Alton (mostly minorities)

    1. These fan videos include sampling clips from movies or television shows, creating movies within video games, using flash animation (or stop motion animation, claymation, etc.), roping friends and family into participating in a live-action video, and so on, all set to a favourite song or used

      It isn't exactly like they are talking about, but this reminds me of when my Spanish teacher allowed us to create music videos and songs based on the topic we were learning about in class.

    1. Ẅe understood very early that this was not a Christian nation.This reminds me of Frederick Douglass, who in his autobiography, stated that American Christianity is not true Christianity.

    1. All seemd well pleas'd, all seem'd, but were not all.

      Milton’s use of the word “seem’d” here reminds me of Spenser’s use of the word “seem” in book I of The Faerie Queene.

    1. Better in body, perhaps"—I began, and stopped short, for he sat up straight and looked at me with such a stern, reproachful look that I could not say another word.

      It sucks that she can't speak her mind. Her husband shuts her down with a look. This reminds me of emotional abuse or intimidation.

    1. Did it make you ache so, leaving me?

      This section reminds me of Blue Book #6 in Sing due to the feeling that the world views a woman should feel. Similar there is the same thing here where they are expected to ache after leaving.

    2. I am given up by traitors,I talk wildly, I have lost my wits, I and nobody else am the greatest traitor,

      This section reminds me of the poem, After the War, the Head Nurse Gives Advice to Wives Visiting the Ward because it is the raw truth of what happened after the war similar to Walt Whitman's internal raw incites upon himself.

    1. But this man was so unlucky as to have a blue beard, which made him so frightfully ugly that all the women and girls ran away from him.

      This is an interesting way to start a fairy tale. It reminds me of the ugly duckling, but I don't imagine hes going to turn into a "beautiful swan".

  3. Oct 2018
    1. I’ve been to 22 countries, six continents, and been on the ground for close to a dozen referendums and elections. I was in London for UK’s nervous breakdown over Brexit, in Barcelona for Catalonia’s failed attempts at a secession from Spain, in Sweden as neo-Nazis tried to march on the country’s largest book fair.

      World becoming more and more nationalistic. It reminds me of the 1930's.

  4. instructure-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com instructure-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com
    1. The ecological thought must imagine economic change; otherwise it's just another piece on the game board of capitalist ideology.

      This reminds me of WP3 and the economic aspect of the environmental sustainability issue. It is true that we must change the economic aspect, but I do question how we are able to do so, as we've seen with many of the issues that we researched that viable solutions often don't play out in favor of conservation due to the pursuit for profit.

    1. Only by being true to the full growth of all the individuals who make it up, can society by any chance be true to itself

      This reminds me of when getting ready for take-off, they always say to put your oxygen mask on first. If you are out of air then you are not able to help others. If each individual is not supported in their growth, how can they support the rest of their community to be its best?

    1. people and their social lives based on metadata only, without much reference to the actual content of what they say.

      someone can obtain a lot of information about someone by looking at what groups they members of, reminds me of metadata collected by social media: you can learn a lot about someone based on groups of followers or pages that individuals like or repost

    1. In naked Majestie seemd Lords of all, [ 290 ] And worthie seemd, for in thir looks Divine

      The use of the word "seem'd" reminds me of Book I of The Faerie Queene by Edmund Spenser. Redcrosse Knight seems like he is a brave and capable knight because he has great armor but it turns out he has not even ever fought in a battle before. Adam and Eve seem like Lords of all and seem worthy, but are they really?

    1. digital media and emerging modes ofconnectivity to achieve voice and influencein public spheres.

      this reminds me of an organization called Ignite National a women's political org that has different chapters throughout various cities that are established by a fellow that then gives young women often on college campuses the tools to carry out the work in their area

    1. My sensations had by this time become distinct, and my mind received every day additional ideas. My eyes became accustomed to the light and to perceive objects in their right forms; I distinguished the insect from the herb, and by degrees, one herb from another. I found that the sparrow uttered none but harsh notes, whilst those of the blackbird and thrush were sweet and enticing.

      This reminds me of Allegory of the Cave, as it references a blinding light (moon) and his journey from ignorance of the world to understanding and knowledge

    1. both opinions and financial assistance with great ease

      This reminds me of artist commissions I find on art sites. The internet allows them to reach out to wider audiences. This can also relate to let's plays/streamers/twitch as well!

    2. Given the increasingly digital nature of civic and political life, it is fundamentally important that we enact policies that close both the digital divide and the participation gap

      this reminds me of the whole 'your vote matters' thing. It is true and I think it needs to happen

    1. When the young wife arrived there, there was great joy throughout the entire castle, and King Bluebeard was very happy as well.

      reminds me of the beauty and the beast

    1. Comparing statistics is even trickier. If a survey shows that 50% of Latinos and only 30% of Caucasians enjoy watching baseball, those results could easily have been purely due to chance because the survey only interviewed 20 people of each ethnicity.

      This reminds me of the correlation vs causation concept. Data should be taken very carefully and with controls.

    1. It seems that the phrase "a good cause" triggered a willingness to act.

      Reminds me of the pre-suasion test regarding whether people like to help others.

    2. The peripheral approach is also common in the darkest of persuasion programs, such as those of dictators and cult leaders.

      This reminds me about an incident that occurred between my mom and a sales lady last week. My mom had gotten what he wanted from the makeup shelf and while we were on our way to the counter to pay, the sales lady came to my mom. She gave my mom a whole caring for your nails for up to 30 minutes and by the time she was done, my mom had 5 tiny packs of nails materials that cost quite a lot. My mom had never intended to spend such amount of money.

    3. If they don’t like you, you can hit every rule right on target and it doesn’t matter

      This reminds me of why brand building, brand management and public relations are so important. If a business gets it right, they can just about sell anything eventually but if it's wrong, it can take ages to build back up.

    1. In a month he would have been my husband. In a month, here, underneath this lime, We would have broke the pattern; He for me, and I for him, He as Colonel, I as Lady,

      This line actually reminds me of a Carrie Underwood song, Just A Dream, and the whole theme throughout carried similarities to the song. It is very beautifully written with the imagery, but there are sad undertones that allow readers to connect and see the emotions of the writer.

    2. Underneath my stiffened gown Is the softness of a woman bathing in a marble basin, A basin in the midst of hedges grown

      image and language reminds me of greek frescos and other paintings associated with Venus and other greek goddesses and the portrayal of femininity

    1. things are a part of me.

      I think this point is important and reminds me of symbolism in reference to people. For example, if someone passes away, there is always a piece that continuously pops up that reminds you of that person (sort of like the butterflies). I really like this summation, it shows that she may not be here, but the pieces of her will still be present.

    1. Even in talking with my own daughter, currently a high school sophomore, she described to me a number of decisions that she makes including the intended receiver (whether the person is a close friend, acquaintance, boyfriend, or adult; the likelihood that the receiver will save or share the snap with others), the time (time of day, day of the week, month, during the school year or during vacation), the location (inside/outside, at home/elsewhere), the lighting, the font size and color, use of emojis or other “stickers,” duration of the conversation (and whether it is part of a “Snap Streak” of multiple days), and whether or not to use time and location tags provided by Snapchat.

      This example reminds me of the high school student who is unable to solve a simple math problem in a remedial class. Yet, that same student can build an entire off-road vehicle and converse fluently about fuel ratios, timing settings, and torque tolerance.

    1. The mind is its own place

      Reminds me of Crawford's work on the detached individual. I guess Milton is saying that the mind can't be taken apart from the context of the body.

    2. the unconquerable Will

      This reminds me of the poem Invictus.

      Out of the night that covers me, Black as the pit from pole to pole, I thank whatever gods may be For my unconquerable soul.

      I wonder if William Ernest Henley was inspired by Milton.

    1. As a matter of recourse, some students in the study “read the news laterally,” meaning they used sources elsewhere on the Internet to compare versions of a story in an attempt to verify its facts, bias, and ultimately, its credibility.25

      This reminds me how much I miss the old daily analysis that Slate use to do for the day's top news stories in various outlets in their Today's Papers segmet.

    1. Zohara’sability to instill ecastasy (tarab) in the sonic community is quickly contrastedwith the miserable conditions of her old age:‘Now you can find her/ in Ash-kelon/Antiquities 3/ By the welfare office the smell/ of leftover sardine cans ona wobbly three-legged table/ the stunning royal carpets stained on the JewishAgency cot’

      This actually reminds me one of the most prominent Iranian vocalists and songwriter, Delkash. She was born in Babol at 1925. Delkash started public singing in 1943 and was employed in Radio Iran in 1945. very soon after she was popular and Iranian favorite singer for her rest of life. She was a generous woman and adapted more than two hundred kids in her life. Unfortunately, after the Islamic regime and women voice ban, her life changed dramatically. Delkash died in in a similar situation 2004, at the age of 80, in Tehran

    1. We uploaded a pre-publication draft of the column to allow for review, remix, and commentary.

      This article is great. Randall Johnson reminds me of many educators who are using social media, blogs, and YouTube to share openly online. Many teachers have instagrams that they use to share their ideas, thoughts, content, experiences with education.

    1. Take, forexample, a realistic scenario where Oliviauses social comparison to gauge herabilities: Olivia is a high school student whooften spends a few hours in her backyardshooting a soccer ball at her homemadegoal. A friend of hers suggests she try outfor the school’s soccer team. Olivia acceptsher friend’s suggestion, although nervously, doubting she’s good enough to make the team.On the day of tryouts, Olivia gets her gear ready and starts walking towards the soccer field.As she approaches, she feels butterflies in her stomach and her legs get wobbly. But, glancingtowards the other candidates who have arrived early to take a few practice shots at the goal,she notices that their aim is inconsistent and they frequently miss the goal. Seeing this, Oliviafeels more relaxed, and she confidently marches onto the field, ready to show everyone her

      This also reminds me of me when I was younger. I use to always get scared to perform my skills in front of certain people because I feel like I will fail, but when I see that other people fail the butterflies go away and I try to do my best at the task I am trying to perform.

      Mykel Wise

    1. Finally, each online tool regularly is updated; each time this happens new affordances appear, requiring addi-tional skills and strategies.

      This reminds me of my grandma. Every time her iPhone updates, she gets freaked out because what she knew, was all changed and in different places. I feel that children and teens, have the skills to problem solve and figure out the update, where many older people do not.

    1. the future is often used to enhance the probability of achieving a certain policy. This is often phrased as “preparing for the future,” or “responding to the challenge of the future.”

      This reminds me of VUCA - Volatile, Uncertain, Complex, Ambiguous world. Corporations and governments plan to much when it comes to policy and they think this policy will remain intact. In reality living in a VUCA world this is redundant.

    1. potatoes bubble vigorously, the aroma of the roast knocks at the door,

      This reminds me of Saturday night dinners with my family. Me, my younger, and my older brother would go with our parents 10 minutes away to our grandparent's house. Driving up the winding, disorienting, steep hills, we would shove one another out of the car, running into the warmth of the summer, occasionally being hit by brisk shards of wind. The sky would be a drunken fuschia-tangerine, and a blast of radioactive heat would ignite out skin as we ran into the kitchen to see our grandparents. My Grandma, Opal, would be cooking in her apron; multiple bubbling pots with crusted foam on the electric stovetop and an oven, red-handed culprit of the heat, as she fanned herself with a crossword book. The sweet, meaty smell would fill our nostrils as we raided the fridge in search of milk, strawberry syrup, and what types of ice cream were in the freezer. Naturally, we weren't allowed passage to the rest of the house without being covered in kisses. We would then go over to my Grandpa, 'Paca'. He was always in his reclining, brown leather chair that was lined with silver, small circular metal buttons, hands across his belly as he sat contentedly. We would crawl into his lap. He would look down beyond his mustache and spectacles as we rattled away at his shirt pocket, squealing at the sound of, "tsk tsk tsk!". "Can we have a one-zie, Paca?!" He would laugh, only air escaping from his nose, and smile underneath his silver facial hair, "Oh you like those, huh?". "Yes, Paca." He would then remove them from his light blue shirt pocket and hand us the plastic container of "One-zies", allowing us to dispense a sweet, orange oval of taste. Usually, we would take 3 or 4. "Thank you Paca."

      After, we would sit and have various dinners as a family, but one my Grandma would sometimes cook was Pot Roast with potatoes carrots, and onion. This is what the section reminded me of. This was my experience/a memory I had from this section.

    1. I asked why she took me there she silently smiled and took my hand led me to a place

      This stanza reminds me of the color yellow. The color yellow is very symbolic and whenever I think of a path leading to a place, I vividly think of the yellow brick road leading to Oz.

    1. not a single mouse to punctuate the blankness

      This line has me a bit perplexed. Where does a mouse fit in to all of this? It's hard to decipher. This reminds me of the famous line, "not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse..." Being that this poem takes place during the winter, maybe there is some sort of correlation between the two.

    1. Mutt-i-grees Curriculum

      Mutt-i-grees. I've never heard this word before, but it reminds me of the word pedigree which I have heard. A pedigree is a dog which is bred with a specific ancestry. This new word has "mutt" in front of it, which is the opposite of pedigree. Mutt means a mixing of different breeds. I think this word is a joke and play on the word pedigree.

    1. confession

      The word confession reminds me of the Spanish Inquisition. It also reminds me of law enforcement agencies. Questioning. Inquisitions. Confession rooms.

    1. person,” a way of taking on a certain sort of identity. In that sense, each of ushas multiple identities. Even a priest can read the Bible “as a priest,”“as a lit-erary critic,”“as a historian,” even “as a male” or “ as an African American”(priest, literary critic, historian, or ethnic group member)

      It's only half because Hypothesis Is lame. But I enjoy the concept that People take on different identities as they read different material, even reminds me how people take on different personalities when speaking a different language. #dillajam

    1. “Israel recognizes the civil and equal rights of Nazarenes, regardless ofrace, language, or religion.”

      This reminds me of the Tamir Sorek article, "A shortened History of Arab Soccer in Israel" in the International Journal of ME studies, vol. 35. He argues that "Arab citizens downplayed the Palestinian elements of their identity. The absence of the Palestinian exiled leadership, as well as many years of worry about the reach of the arm of Israel law and the reaction of the Jewish majority, forced demonstrations of Palestinian national identity into the private sphere". I think this civil and equal rights recognition was just on paper.

    1. around her body, she takes and flings it out haughtily, with an imperious gesture,

      This line really reminds me of this photo I found on the Getty website. Reading this part of the poem, I couldn't help but imagine the dancer as possessed by her passion. I feel like I see this possession in the Louis Fleckenstein photo above--the woman pictured arches in a dramatic way, conjuring movement as you look at it- as if she will snap back up and continue dancing. It reminds me of the comparison to the rattlesnakes in lines 4 and 5.

    1. Researchers of social cognition study how people make sense of themselves and others tomake judgments, form attitudes, and make predictions about the future. Much of the researchin social cognition has demonstrated that humans are adept at distilling large amounts ofinformation into smaller, more usable chunks, and that we possess many cognitive tools thatallow us to efficiently navigate our environments. This research has also illuminated manysocial factors that can influence these judgments and predictions.

      This fact reminds me of me when I come across a new environment. When I come across a new environment I always seem to make judgments and predictions about the new people I might encounter. If they look nice, dress well, loud, and confident, then I'll automatically assume they are popular. But if they aren't so loud, barely dress up, and always keep to themselves, I automatically assume they are the less popular ones.

    1. One of my favorite poems I've read by Sarton. My favorite lines from the poem are "I sit here, open to psychic changes,/ Living myself as if I were a land," because as the poem comes together, it reminds me of people who always say they're a slave to their work, and they're constantly dreaming and day dreaming about the undiscovered world they live in. She says she open to psychic changes, meaning she is open to her pattern of thought being altered, then she claims she is living as a land, suggesting she is living larger than life itself. These are the emotions and feelings a writer experiences when they create entire new worlds in poems and stories. For writers and anyone in general who has dabbled in all sorts of creative poetry, this was a very relatable piece.

    1. creation itself like the growth of a tree.

      I really like this line and how she highlights creation as the growth of a tree. It reminds me of the story of creation in the Bible (Genesis). I also like how she uses growth to show creation, mentioning that as something gets bigger, it is creating itself rather than just growing.

    1. blatant biases tend to run in packs: People who openly hate one outgroup also hate many others.

      Reminds me of how people who participated in the Thomas Pettigrew and Linda Tropp's metanalysis involving intergroup contact theory found that "good feelings" towards one out group could also extend to "good feelings" towards multiple other out groups.

    2. people are mostly faster at pairing their own group with good categories, compared to pairing others’ groups.

      Reminds me of the interview with the school girl when she was asked about a girl that looked like her (white) she said she looked nice and was helping the african american girl. However, when the roles were reversed she believed the african american girl was stealing the white girl's money.

    1. The morning was one peculiar to that coast. Everything was mute and calm; everything gray. The sea, though undulated into long roods of swells, seemed fixed, and was sleeked at the surface like waved lead that has cooled and set in the smelter’s mould. The sky seemed a gray surtout. Flights of troubled gray fowl, kith and kin with flights of troubled gray vapors among which they were mixed, skimmed low and fitfully over the waters, as swallows over meadows before storms. Shadows present, foreshadowing deeper shadows to come.

      The cadence of this passage reminds me of Hemingway's "The Old Man and the Sea" (1952):

      "The clouds over the land now rose like mountains and the coast was only a long green line with the gray blue hills behind it. The water was a dark blue now, so dark that it was almost purple. As he looked down into it he saw the red sifting of the plankton in the dark water and the strange light the sun made now. He watched his lines to see them go straight down out of sight into the water and he was happy to see so much plankton because it meant fish. The strange light the sun made in the water, now that the sun was higher, meant good weather and so did the shape of the clouds over the land. But the bird was almost out of sight now and nothing showed on the surface of the water but some patches of yellow, sun-bleached Sargasso weed and the purple, formalized, iridescent, gelatinous bladder of a Portuguese man-of-war floating close beside the boat." [Project Gutenberg]

    1. Organizing visual aesthetics and user experiences by using mockups, wireframes or pencil sketches/maps of digital content to be built.

      This statement reminds me of how important it is to pick a theme for our website, and making it organized. I think visuals are very important because they can keep the learner/reader interested.

    1. Another important function of collaboration in learning environments is to provide a me<1ns for individuals to understand point of view other than their own

      This reminds me that one of my professors said reflections from your peers are very important because you can learn more from varies perspectives.

    1. Everything beyond is flows that we regard as "waste" flows in some sense (the fact that we do this should make you at least a little angry).

      Reminds me of pg's insight on why nobody had created Stripe desite the need for something like it: that it would be a slog.

    1. However, repositories are not mentioned specifically as valuable vehicles for OA deposit/publishing. And yet when Open Access platforms are specified as publishing venues, it is unclear if the reference is to repositories or funder open research platforms, for example. Providing greater clarity about the importance and breadth of the role of repositories in the implementation process will be important.  

      I think this underlines the need for re-imagining what repositories are and do. Reminds me ever always of the COAR Report on Future of Repositories.

    1. hen, as she was so tired, she laid herself down on one of the little beds, but none of them suited her, one was too long, another too short, but at last she found that the seventh one was right, and so she remained in it, said a prayer and went to sleep.

      This part of the story reminds me of the Goldilocks story

    1. As people go about their daily lives, theyhave to resist many desires and impulses and must control themselves in other ways, and soover the course of a typical day many people gradually become ego depleted. The result isthat they become increasingly likely to give in to impulses and desires that they would haveresisted successfully earlier in the day (Hofmann, Vohs, & Baumeister, 2012).

      This fact reminds me of my grandmother. When somebody presents their self in a "sloppy manner" she has the urge to say something about it or fix what is bothering her. I confronted her about her problem and she told me she was going to change, but she still right back doing what she has been doing.

    2. They control their thinking,such as in trying to concentrate or to shutsome annoying earworm tune out of theirmind

      This reminds me of meditation and how the whole idea behind it is to quiet the mind. I think that why meditation is so hard for most of us because quieting the mind is difficult especially in this day of age where we are brains are constantly stimulated.(phones, TV, music, etc.)

    1. This passage on human movement (p 149) reminds me of the Raphael sketch of a cadaver hung by cords that is discussed in the Laurenza reading (p 17). We can see through both artists’ studies that they possessed a great deal of interest in the dynamics of the human body. In this passage, Leonardo takes a mathematical approach in discussing how a person shifts their weight from one leg to another when travelling up stairs. He describes in detail the physics of the different forces on a body in motion, as well as the anatomical features that cause or are caused by that motion. By contrast, Raphael studies the movement of the body through the lens of an artist. He studied corpses to see the dynamics of how the human body falls, or rests, and which parts of the body are strained or used in various states; he used these findings to inform his paintings of people. For example, Raphael’s sketches of a corpse suspended by cords was probably a study that was used to paint the crucifiction. In summary, I find it very interesting the way that two artists used very different means to achieve the same ends, in terms of studying corpses in order to better depict the human figure.

    1. “Instead of just writing a check to help her, we wanted to find a way to go deeper and give expertise from our team,” says Nathaniel Ru, the company’s chief brand officer. “We’ve been working kind of shoulder to shoulder with [Jackson] trying to make her vision come to life.”

      This solution is one of the best ways to move forward in achieving goals regarding food deserts reminds me of the quote: "Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime. " . This is exactly what I see in Sweetgreen. Instead of "just writing a check", they are helping train them for a lifetime.

    1. As Herman and Sloop (1998, p. 2) say, theideology of authenticity provided the ground for a practice of judgment throughwhich musicians, fans, and critics could ‘‘distinguish between ‘authentic rock,’ whichwas transgressive and meaningful, and ‘inauthentic rock’ (or ‘pop’), which was co-opted and superficial.’’

      This reminds me of the common sang here in the West, "music nowadays just wasn't what it used to be". Perhaps a lot of the popular music today would be seen as "inauthentic"

    1. beating – beating

      Reminds me of a heart. I feel Dickinson is trying to convey how the longer you're alive, the more isolated and unloved you become and feel, kind of resulting in depression, which could make one feel like their mind is numb.

    1. Dear March - Come in -

      This piece reminds me of a dialogue between the narrator and March. Dickinson uses personification when referring to March. The tone of this piece is very different from many of the other pieces we have read by her. It is much more light-hearted and even humorous. Her use of language and imagery also caused me to envision this conversation happening in person.

    1. Except that the aggregate selfish behavior of millions of people tagging billions of photos means that the public tag pages make entertaining surfing for everyone.

      Reading this reminds me of some of Brad Enslen and Kicks Condor's conversations about discovery on the net.

      How can one leverage selfish behaviour to the benefit of all?

    1. So you've got prove everybody wrong versus do the best you can. And the women in the second group not only performed as well as the men, they actually outperformed the men. Whereas the women in the first group actually significantly underperformed. So we can create our own self-fulfilling prophecies. We can actually— by our own expectations, we can impact other people's behavior and see what we're expecting to see.

      This reminds me of the growth mindset, thinking you're able to do something and improve upon yourself makes the world of a difference!

    2. We can actually— by our own expectations, we can impact other people's behavior and see what we're expecting to see.

      Relationships, classrooms, career growth, all of this stems back to this. This reminds me of the concept of "good vibes" versus "bad vibes" - we create our own vibes! Expect positivity and you will portray positivity, the world is a subjective place and our own minds create our own spaces.

    3. They did not notice it was different.

      This reminds me of the video where people are playing basketball and a gorilla walks right through the center of the screen but no one notices. It's all about perspective and I think that if you're so focused on something else, you cannot see the other side of things.

    4. Names are actually an important part of our identities

      This resonates with me as I always think of an individual with a particular name and their qualities that remind me of them. For example, you would not name your kid the same name as the person you disliked in school as their name reminds you of them

    1. riests as medi- ators between men and gods were not required in this system, since in the new teaching each individual was responsible for his or her own salvation and the role of the deity could be absent.

      Reminds me of Protestantism vs. Catholicism

    1. Collaborative work by universities and communities

      This approach (while I am mindful of the critical points others have brought up about legitimacy, etc.) is an admirable attempt to create a more meaningful connection to community.

      It reminds me of community psychology, which is an attempt to create a more participatory and holistic way of dealing with social challenges that communities face.

      A short article about a project in Guatemala: http://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/download?doi=10.1.1.552.5011&rep=rep1&type=pdf

    1. I also know that I cannot re-write them (that it is impossible today to write 'like that') and this knowledge, depressing enough, suffices to cut me off from the production of these works

      I am wondering about the relationship between text and e.g. a painting, a photograph etc. here—or could a painting also be a text in Barthes's understanding here? The thought came to my mind, because this description reminds me of the sadness I often experience when I encounter paintings in museums: I would argue that this form of art is very hard to grasp, very un-democratic, because I am stuck in the position of the "consumer". I cannot read a painting out loud, I cannot really copy it, I cannot paint on (annotate) it....

    1. Enkidu was grown wea k , for wisdom was in him, and the thoughts of a man were in his heart. So he returned and sat down at the woman's feet, and listened intently to what she said. ‘You are wise, Enkidu, and now you have become like a god. Why

      This reminds me of the wisdom obtained in the Garden of Eden

    1. Presence

      This kist focuses on yourself. It reminds me of the basic aspects of meditation. You are supposed to focus on your breath but at the same time you want to be aware of your surroundings.

    1. We must integrate these new knowledge cultures into our schools, not only through group work but also through long-distance collaborations across different learning communities. Students should discover what it is like to contribute their own expertise to a process that involves many intelligences, a process they encounter readily in their participation in fan discussion lists or blogging. Indeed, this disparate collaboration may be the most radical element of new literacies: they enable collaboration and knowledge-sharing with large-scale communities that may never personally interact. Schools are currently still training autonomous problem-solvers, whereas as students enter the workplace, they are increasingly being asked to work in teams, drawing on different sets of expertise, and collaborating to solve problems.

      Again, reminds me of Gee in "The Anti-Education Era"

    1. "radical hope,"

      I like this term and its lofty ideals. It reminds me though how difficult it is to know our role and impact on most of our students' lives even though we think about it often.

    1. Just as biological sex varies more widely than is commonly thought, so too does gender.Cisgender individuals’ gender identities correspond with their birth sexes, whereastransgender individuals’ gender identities do not correspond with their birth sexes. Becausegender is so deeply ingrained culturally, rates of transgender individuals vary widely aroundthe world (see Table 1).Although incidence rates of transgender individuals differ significantly between cultures,transgender females (TGFs)—whose birth sex was male—are by far the most frequent typeof transgender individuals in any culture. Of the 18 countries studied by Meier and Labuski(2013), 16 of them had higher rates of TGFs than transgender males (TGMs)—whose birth

      This kind of reminds me of home. In my hometown (Aiken, SC) there are at least two or three transgenders. One was a girl who switched to a boy and the other two were boys who ended up switching to a girl.

    1. When students enter the university setting, they are responsible for requesting accommodations through the appropriate office.

      This reminds me of REACH at College of Charleston, students with Intellectual Disabilities are able to attend college.

    1. For example, Europeanand American cultures today associate pink with femininity and blue with masculinity

      Why do we have to associate color with a specific gender? My favorite color is blue, does that mean i am more masculine than the "average" female who likes the color pink? This reminds me of when i attend baby showers. If there is anything blue in the room everyone automatically thinks the baby is a boy or if the color is pink, the baby is a girl. I happen to know a male whose favorite color is purple, does that mean he is feminine?

    1. He has always had wealth; he was born into it and makes ample use of it.

      reminds me of politics today and how (often times) having familial political power and money can gain one a spot in power

    1. even to apps like Lulu that rate people.

      This reminds me so much of a Black Mirror episode I saw where the whole society rates people based on their experiences with them and this affects their credit score essentially. So for those people who are rude and not friendly, they receive low scores and aren't able to get a good job, buy a house, or buy a car. Essentially making them homeless and starving.

    1.      "Where's Dick?" to see what he would say.      "I don't know nor care," said he; and some one spoke to me, and I left him.

      I'm sensing some "Cain and Abel" tension going on. It reminds me of when Cain is asked where Abel is, he replies "I am not my brother's keeper" because he does not want to admit to murdering him.

    1. “growing pressures for audit and evaluation of public spending on higher education and research”

      reminds me of Goodhart's law: "When a measure becomes a target, it ceases to be a good measure." (thank you wiki)

    2. Faculty labor in the form of teaching, research,and service issupposed to serve the common good and address social problem

      Reminds me of our first PDC discussion on why do governments fund research/education

    1. Your BIS2A instructors have devised something that we call “The Design Challenge” to help us approach the topics we cover in the course from a problem solving and/or design perspective. This pedagogical tool is nothing more than

      Never heard of the design challenge, but it reminds me a lot of the process I got through when doing math problems, particularly word problems.

    1. wejudgetheextentoftheirmentaldevelop-mentonthebasis ofhowtheysolvethemandatwhatlevel of difficulty

      This reminds me of an IQ test which has been deemed an inaccurate way to measure adult intelligence. Why would a similar type of assessment be accurate for children?

    1. There was nothing they might not do within the range of their timid ambitions; they were women of fortune now and their own mistresses. They were beginning at last to live.

      This quote along with the one above it that I highlighted I believe really shows the dynamic between the sisters, while also allowing the reader to know how much pain and trouble they went through. For these two women to be older, with no prospects at marriage but now finally be able to be free, only makes their later loss that much worse. It reminds me of Kate Chopin's short story Story of an Hour where the main woman character finally feels like she has freedom, only to have it so cruelly ripped away so shortly after.

    1. This commentary described how a well‐intentioned educational innovation clashed with deeply entrenched institutional structures, norms, and beliefs, potentially hindering the effectiveness of the innovation itself.

      This kind of reminds me of politics where a bipartisan system has persisted for decades because there are two different but not incorrect ideologies. I wonder if education is subject to the same standstill.

    1. For surely to every good and peaceable man it must in nature needs be a hatefull thing to be the displeaser, and molester of thousands; much better would it like him doubtlesse to be the messenger of gladnes and contentment, which is his chief intended busines, to all mankind, but that they resist and oppose their own true happinesse.

      This reminds me of Jesus Christ.

    1. The upshot is that America’s — and Australia’s, and Europe’s — leading experts on China often remain silent as its regime becomes ever more repressive.

      The conflict between china and the rest of the word reminds me of how mc murphey is challenging the system. But his resistance to the rules of the ward are making the conflict worse and with no end in sight it can be compared to his struggle with the big nurse

    1. Too often, we focus on limit-ing youth from accessing inaccurate or problematic information.

      This stood out to me. It reminds me of the phrase, "You can only learn if you make mistakes." The youth population is not going to learn and become more digitally literate if they cannot pick out inaccuracy online.

    1. When one person seeks out another person with the intent to share positive news, it has beencalled capitalization (Gable et al., 2004). The best, supportive response to someone who sharesgood news has been termed active-constructive and is characterized by enthusiastic support.These active-constructive responses are positively associated with trust, satisfaction,commitment, and intimacy.

      This reminds me of my best friend and her relationship with her ex. She was always there for him and when it came down to good news she always supported him. She was always excited when she heard good news about him and she never stopped loving him.This caused their relationship to be continuous because even though they broke up they are still friends.

      Mykel Wise

    1. Encourage students to practice this strategy by pausing to ask as they read: What else do I know about this topic? What other knowledge do I possess that might apply?

      This reminds me of the annotations that we do here on hypothesis.

    1. Evolution has prepared us to care deeply about social acceptance and social status, for those unfortunate individuals who do not get along well in social groups or who fail to attain a requisite status among their peers have typically been severely compromised when it comes to survival and reproduction.

      This somewhat reminds me of the kids I teach english to from Fukushima. The parents are always saying how our support and fun gave them a sense of a well, good community. This is something they had lost after the radiation as it scared people away. I think it fits within this context because us humans tend to gravitate toward welcoming groups that accept you.

    2. “I” encounters “Me.”

      This is only the first sentence, but it's interesting how there is already a distinction being made between the two parts of the self. This reminds me of a poem I read in my AP Spanish Lit class by author/poet Jorge Borges (I believe).

    1. “Scientists planning the next phase of the human genome proj­ect are being forced to confront a treacherous issue: the genetic differences between human races,” he wrote in a July 20, 2001, article, For Genome Mappers, the Tricky Terrain of Race Requires Some Careful Navigating. The question was no longer whether or not racial differences exist at the molecu­lar level, but how to go about discovering them.

      This reminds me of an article I just read about how organizations like 23andMe are perpetuating racial divides and making racist science seem acceptable again (as well as ignore indigenous structures of indigeneity). I've tried a couple of times to attach the link, but it's not working! It's 'We've Been Here for 2,000 Years: White settlers, Native American DNA and the phenomenon of indigenization' by Darryl Leroux.

    1. Then she cut off the mermaid’s tongue, so that she became dumb, and would never again speak or sing

      One of the main symbolism I found in The Little Mermaid was the religious aspect of this. By wanting something beyond her realm and giving up everything beautiful to give in to evil reminds me of Even leaving the Garden of Eden.

      This reminds me of "The White Man's Burden" in how Orwell views his position of authority as a burden that he doesn't want to bear, but must. The idea that native people clearly look up to him as he has the superior technology and intelligence to solve problems that they cannot.

    1. but that scientists will maintain an often-useful image of objectivity

      I actually dislike this notion... (1) it reminds me of scientism and (2) I believe that this reliance on images and preaching of objectivity leads to some of the problems around mistrust (climate deniers, anti-vaxxers, and other proactively counter-scientific movements).

      Instead of relying on the narrative of the research often it is demanded that the public blindly trusts scientists based on their 'objectivity'.

    1. strictly choreographed citizenconsultation

      This reminds me of something Trudeau's government has tried to do. They have put surveys online about how to regulate legalized cannabis (I took part in this one), and they claim that they surveyed Canadians about whether or not they prefer proportional representation in the election system (I don't remember seeing this survey). And governments are constantly "choreographing" consultations in forums for citizens, but in the end, I'm not sure if they actually take those citizens' views into account, or if they just go ahead and do what they wanted anyway. I don't have evidence either way.

    1. whereby we are skeptical of evidence that goes against what we want to believe despite the strength of the evidence

      reminds me of some people's denial of climate change & our environment worsening despite actual evidence

    2. Much of the research in social cognition has demonstrated that humans are adept at distilling large amounts of information into smaller, more usable chunks

      This reminds me of something that I recently learned in my AP Psychology class. It is a method to help memory called "chunking" where you take large pieces of information and separate them into smaller "chunks" to help remember.

    1. However, women who give birth by cesarean sectionwithout going through labor, or who opt not to breastfeed, are still able to form a strongemotional bond with their children. Furthermore, fathers, grandparents, and adoptive parentsalso form lifelong attachments to children.

      This reminds me of my brother and my mom's relationship. When my mother had my brother she didn't go through labor, she went through a cesarean section, and they have the best mother and son bond I ever seen. My brother is a momma's boy so whatever he complains about or cries for my mother comes to his rescue. He also has a good relationship with my father. They communicate with each other, mainly about football and how that'ts going to be his career, almost everyday.

    2. However, recenthuman experiments have shown thatintranasal delivery of oxytocin canfacilitate social behaviors, including eyecontact and social cognition

      This reminds me of another study that used insulin that used an internasal delivery to help with the effects of Alzheimer's. It was found to help with memory recall as well as short term memory retention.

    3. Life on earth isfundamentally social: The ability to dynamically interact with other living organisms to supportmutual homeostasis, growth, and reproduction evolved very early.

      This reminds me of something I recently learned in my abnormal psychology class. A Chief Psychiatrist in Paris in 1793 named Philippe Pinel tried a new way of running asylums. Back in that time people with mental health issues were treated as dangerous people and they locked them up in dungeons by themselves. When Philippe came and took over he took on the approach that they should be around people and be able to interact because the solidity was only making the patients more crazy. In only a years time his approach was proven successful. The patients that had been in the asylum for decades, after being able to interact with other people and build relationships with therapist were doing much better and being released left and right back into society.

    1. The slippery slope concept refers to situations where an act, decision, or allowance mightlead to unwanted consequences or events that cannot be controlled.

      This reminds me of Kant's "ideal kingdom" which I recommend looking into, it's kind of interesting.

    Annotators

    1. Rama is worshipped as the ideal ruler and the restorer of dharma. Always popular in northern India, Rama, has latterly become the principal god of Hindu nationalism

      The Hindu gods acting as representatives of Nationalism or the women's rights movements vaguely reminds me of Catholic saints and how there are saints for nearly everything (ex: patron saint of orphans, patron saint of travelers, etc.). I know it is not the exact same thing but that is what it brought to mind.

    1. “We ask of you an impossible combination of traits: ironclad scruples and a willingness to violate them;

      Reminds me of doublethink from 1984. And not necessarily in a good way.

    1. responsibilities

      This is a good point. More often than not academia is isolated inside the univeristy environment and do not see themselves as part of a bigger picture or as influencers. I think it is an issue of mindset inside universities. It reminds me of an essay from Noam Chomsky on the "responsability of the Intellectuals": https://chomsky.info/19670223/

    1. not to what should be but to what is

      This reminds me of the writing of C.S. Lewis. Lewis stated that if you look at the world, two things are clear: that there is a certain way people ought to behave, and that people often don't behave that way. Sidney is making a similar observation, in that there is a way that people act throughout history, but it may not reflect how people ought to act. Historians pass no judgement, they merely report.

    1. So they sat down with him upon the ground seven days and seven nights, and none spake a word unto him: for they saw that his grief was very great.

      This reminds me of Gilgamesh, and some other classic stories where the main character takes time away to 'wander' 'think' and 'reflect'

    1. On page 122 the author states that there was the 'belief that the universe itself functioned according to a mathematically determinable harmony.' This reminds me of the Zodiac Man, and how different moon phases and zodiac sign related to different parts of the body. The author mentioned how this could determine how a patient was treated at the time, even though now we know that this held no scientific validity.

    1. Above all, we cannot play ducks and drakes with a native battery of idiomswhich prescribes egregious collocations of vocables

      Reminds me of what we discussed in class today. We learned that people use big words in order to sound smart and they forget the context behind the sentence.

    1. I told them the skin was off my back,

      This reminds me of our discussion in class about white womanhood. Could this be an example of Mary using her white womanhood to gain pity from her captors?

    2. she gave me a slap in the face,

      Reminds me of what you see in the movies when someone is getting out of hand, someone else slaps them in order for them to gain control of themselves again. Maybe this slap represents her mistress wanting her to realize her own strength

    1. the association Culture with High-brow culture , suggested through of the German Kultur in the beginning of the article reminds me of the term Classical , which comes from Latin classicus, the highest class of citizens'.

    1. Now when the charioteer looks in the eye of love, his entire soul is suffused with a sense of warmth and starts to fill with tingles and the goading of desire. As for the horses, the one who is obedient to the charioteer is still controlled, then as always, by its sense 254 of shame, and so prevents itself from jumping on the boy. The other one, however, no longer responds to the whip or the goad of the charioteer; it leaps violently forward and does everything to aggravate its yokemate and its charioteer, trying to make them go up to the boy and suggest to him the pleasures of sex

      This description of three parts of a soul reminds me of the id, ego, & superego, which I'm sure isn't a coincidence.

    1. Why and by whose power were you sent?

      This reminds me of US border patrol and the questions you get asked when trying to get into the country. The ability to answer this very important question will make or mar your chances of getting past immigration.

    1. why proper selection of content to be included in course work is necessary.

      Reminds me of Josh Moon: "I will always try to tell you WHY we are doing what we are doing."

    1. One way to engage in a conversation like Chesmar does is to construct a dialogue between your sources like the dialogue on a Wikipedia article discussion page.

      The social aspect of Wikipedia reminds me of a Civilized Reddit

    2. If you quote or paraphrase a Wikipedia article as an authoritative source, then, you are potentially making a claim based on wrong information, and using incorrect information is not a good way to make a convincing argument. Of course, misinformation isn’t limited to Wikipedia.

      This statement & Wikipedia's reputation reminds me of todays political climate and "Fake News"

    1. Anxious-avoidant adults will appearnot to care much about their intimate relationships, and are uncomfortable being dependedon or depending on others themselves.

      Anxious-avoidant reminds me of one of my exes and how he was so against opening up and being vunerable. He always had a mask on so he could cover how much he really cared because he thought he would be seen as weak. I think he acted this way because growing up he did not have the best relationship with his mother. I think him trying to act like he didn’t care about anyone or anything really showed how much he was actually hurting and needed someone to care about him. This shows how love and support from a parent is so important and how it completely shapes who we are.

    1. Those who imagine that life in the past was simpler, slower and better are wrong. The experience of exhaustion, and anxieties about exhaustion epidemics in the wider population, are not bound to a particular time and place. On the contrary: exhaustion and its effects have preoccupied thinkers since classical antiquity.

      This statement is interesting in that it reminds me of what Baron argues in A Better Pencil when he says that everyone views the progression of technology as being the root of their problems. In the case of exhaustion, we all think that prior generations must have had it easier when really they were thinking the same thing about generations before them.

    1. The Iliad probably had been recited for years before it w as w ritten dow n

      The Iliad that is heard today is probably different from what was originally told. This reminds me of a game that my campers and I played called 'telephone' where you would whisper something into the persons ear next to you and then that person would pass it on to the person next to them and so on. When the message would get passed on to the last person it would usually be different from what the person that started the message said. Sometimes it would be completely different and sometimes it would be the same or similar.

    1. One suggestion is thatattractiveness is a by-product of a more general cognitive mechanism that leads us torecognize and prefer familiar stimuli.

      This makes me think of how some people are attracted to someone because that person reminds them of themselves. They have similar personalities traits and maybe similar facial features and that familiarity is attractive to them.

    2. More attractive people are more popular with their peers, and this isshown even in early childhood

      This reminds me of any cliche t.v show where the popular kid is always the smartest and the most attractive kid in school.

    3. Although facial attractivenesshas received the most research attention(Eagly, Ashmore, Makhijani, & Longo, 1991),people higher in body or vocal attractivenessalso create more positive impressions(Riggio, Widaman, Tucker, & Salinas, 1991;Zuckerman & Driver, 1989). This advantageis termed the attractiveness halo effect, and it is widespread.

      This reminds me of the time I thought I found the one. I met this girl in my hometown, and she was very attractive and a lot of guys wanted her. I thought based on her looks that she was a good person and she was smart enough to not cheat on me, but turns out she did. She also didn't have no common sense.

    1. While technology has the power to bridge the physical divide between children and loved ones in the ways described, technology should not be used to replace meaningful face-to-face interactions. Precautions should be taken to ensure that technology use does not impede the development of healthy, authentic interactions with adults and peers.

      Above was the picture of the mom in the airport and the family at home, this reminds me of my own family. Even though I am far from them and don't get that one on one interaction I am still able to see them because of technology. I am able to use it to my advantage so that I can stay in contact with them and be able to see my family grow as I am away from them at college, so the impact that comes from the video technology that I can get is very strong.

    1. To ensure that technology has a positive impact, adults who use technology with children should continually update their knowledge and equip themselves to make sophisticated decisions

      This reminds me of a similar situation from earlier this year. I would consider myself an avid consumer of content on Youtube and creators in general. When I heard a creator posted an inappropriate video I instantly become concerned that my young niece who also watches Youtube may watch it so I took steps to help prevent her from watching it.

    1. Haitian folklore tells of voodoo shamans, or bokors, who would use digitalis, derived from the foxglove plant, to induce somnambulant trances in individuals who would subsequently appear dead.

      This reminds me of the documentary we had to watch and how they talk about sometimes their lost loved ones won't really dead when they put them down to rest.

    1. defi ning projects, noting keywords, assessing uses and limits—stay the same

      definitely reminds me of cline, and identifying who the author is, what type of text it is, and who the author is addressing

    1. North American middle-class family as if it were part of a different tribe or culture.

      This reminds me of the exercise of analyzing the "foreign culture" of the "Nacirema" to see how one's culture might appear to others objectively.

    2. Insider/outsider stance reminds me of Horace Miner's (author of "Nacirema") quote regarding one of the central tasks of the anthropologist: "to make the strange familiar and the familiar strange."

    3. When we visit another country, we need to learn new rules for intro-ductions and farewells in order to behave appropriately.

      This comment reminds me of the times in which I've felt culture shock, and makes me wonder if any of us will feel culture shock as we continue with our subculture studies.

    1. There is a growing mountain of research. But there is increased evidence that we are being bogged down today as specialization extends.

      This reminds me of how people say technology is making us more stupid, because it is becoming so advanced it does so much for us. It should stay simple and to the point.

    1. This means that when an employer hires a student fresh out of college and asks her to write a report for the CEO, he might expect that she knows what a report is in general, but he needs to remember that she’s never seen a report at this company

      This reminds me a lot about high school teachers and college professors. Most of my teachers had VERY different expectations when it came to writing. Molding yourself to fit those expectations can be very frustrating especially when the teachers don't explain what they want or mean.

    1. IthinkIshallnotbuygreedily,butgoroundandrounditaslongasIlive,andbeburiedinitfirst,thatitmaypleasemethemoreatlast

      I think this relates to the saying "the grass in always greener on the other side." Part of him not buying it right away because he will enjoy it more reminds me of situations where as soon as one gets something they desire, they enjoy it less.

    2. Stillwelivemeanly,likeants;thoughthefabletellsusthatwewerelongagochangedintomen;

      A reference to the Greek myth about the Myrmidons, an army of men made by Zeus out of a colony of ants. Also reminds me of a quote from one of my favorite books, We Are The Ants by Shaun David Hutchinson. I couldn't find the whole paragraph, but I found the end bit on Goodreads : "“Your entire self-worth is predicated upon the belief that you matter, that you matter to the universe. But you don't. Because we are the ants.” "

    3. Bothplaceandtimewerechanged,andIdweltnearertothosepartsoftheuniverseandtothoseerasinhis-torywhichhadmostattractedme.

      He is roughly saying that he feels at one with nature and his ancestors, though really his ancestors probably lived in England or something along the lines and were well off as they could be and it is very unlikely they lived in a shack in the woods. It is his idealized version of what he thought life in the olden days of pioneering was like, bar the fact that he isn't afraid of the wild animals as much or starvation and having no way to return to any sort of civilization because England is across and uncrossable sea. This part really does strike me as ridiculous and reminds me of a lot of hippies today talking about going back to the old ways and such where, in reality, there has never been old days like people imagine. Every year that goes by we are safer from diseases and the threats of the food chain, and even all the way back then he was better of than the true pioneers who literally would've killed to be in his situation. He has more tools and more means of survival than they ever did.

    1. Not only is the notion that OER-sustainability is the responsibility of the end-user pragmatically unnecessary, it also places barriers to adoption that will inhibit rather than encourage future use.

      This is certainly true. It reminds me of the early historical growth of the Catholic church. Paul of Tarses came in and relaxed the dietary restrictions and the need for circumcision which effectively lowered the barrier for entry into the church. One needn't be a Jew to be a follower of Jesus; this helped early growth tremendously.

    1. The senseless loss of life always trumps the efforts of the meaning makers.

      This reminds me of "Thoughts and prayers" when a tragedy happens people often recognize it but do nothing to prevent it in the future.

    2. I never knew despair could lie.

      Quote reminds me of a person who might think the world is out to get them when in reality, all the bad perceptions are made up in their head

    3. "I suppose that everything I see is false. I believe that none of what my deceitful memory represents ever existed"

      This quote reminds me of Allegory of the Cave and the disbelief that took over the first person to leave

    1. He created a dark world without sun, moon or stars. Owing to this creation he was named Viracocha Pachayachachi, which means "Creator of all things." And when he had created the world he formed a race of giants of disproportioned greatness painted and sculptured, to see whether it would be well to make real men of that size. He then created men in his likeness as they are now; and they lived in darkness.

      Reminds me very much of the story of God creating the world. Especially how he created them in his "likeness"

    1. My parents at his feet, wrecked honeysuckles, he lowered his sword-like mouth,   gorged on them, draining color until their eyebrows whitened.

      The parents seem to be dead, the draining color reminds me of a corpse

    1. House Made of Dawn is thus firmly rooted in a generalized "Indian" context, but it translates and interprets that experience for a non-Native audience. Abel is not "every Indian"-or maybe even "anylndian."

      This reminds me of Sherman Alexie's The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Idian
