Although the world may not be perfect we can still do something even though it may be small. It can make a small difference, but at least its progress. An example that I have thought of is that although currently voting is a stressful situation, and many feel as though avoiding it. Even a single vote can make a small difference.

This explanation made me think of what is being taught to future generations of civilization. Of respecting others and disregarding how others look, culture, or beliefs. That everyone should have equality and a right to speak their own minds.

This stands out to me because of how people are put into categories. That society blame and stereotype people based on how they look.

I am actually curious about this. Isn't each individual app already monitoring their own platforms and what is popular or viral at the moment? or can't everyone already access the popularity of memes from just looking it up on google for example? Why would we need researchers to do this when we all have access to doing so

I find this interesting and it made me think of some of the actors I have seen in shows, and realizing that it's in a way true. How some of the bad actors would try new things in hope of angering or getting a reaction out of the audience. I wonder if this is how this is how they gain popularity from the audience in the shows.

Technology and social media play such a huge role in how we respond depending on our beliefs and prejudices. That technology shows how people are and who they are. I just think its crazy how much social platforms and technology is what we depend on to make a judgement of who we are and others.

This quote is an interesting way to describe an illusion. How there is always more than what you perceive. How i interpret this quote is that there is always more detail and more information to everything compared to just having a first look at it. This reminds me of how we meet people. From what you perceive when you meet someone based on how they look compared to their personality after getting to know them.

I have seen this illusion and many forms of illusions just like this. It all depends on perspective. I think it is interesting how perception can make two lines look completely different, but it's the same line.

I think this was interesting. This made me think about how older students would put a larger amount of money compared to younger generations for retirement, because the younger generations are more interested in being able to have more money to spend.

Every student is different. Whether they like to have a physical copy of the book or prefer to read the text online. It just depends on how each student works and how they think they process the information better. I think physical and online books are the same it's just the way that you read and use the material.

I think knowing the content is great and people tend to read what they know and enjoy, and avoid what is challenging because they don't understand the context. Everyone is different because of what their interests are and what they dislike.

What I find is interesting about this is that we write to remember things. I wonder because when the it said "writing would weaken human memory" you would need to know writing to create a reading... and we writing is equally as important as reading but definitely does not weaken human memory.

I think this is important because it is important that everyone's votes are counted in, but keeping the people who are living with the outcome be counted as equal.

This quote stood out to me. All equality should be very important and everyone should be allowed to vote. I think from what Brennan stated earlier in this paragraph of how his public welfare is more important than anyones "hurt feelings" wouldn't be a problem if all given an equal opportunity to vote.

I definitely remember distinctly learning this at the beginning of high school. This should be more important to teach students about the current government system. So they have a better understanding of voting and whats going on with our government.
