COMMUNICATION STRATEGIES OF A HACKER

What "The Mentor" is trying to say is that no matter what we do or how we do it we're all exactly alike regardless of what other people say. He's saying that whatever we do other people are doing the same which is why he can hardly differentiate ourselves from others because we do the same exact thing as them. He's saying we are all alike by using the word 'damn' and 'They're all alike' repetitively to prove his point. His tone also seems aggressive which might help understand the excerpt. He's saying that whenever we do something we're see as criminals, but when people of power do something similar they claim to do it for our good and our benefit. He's saying that there is no difference between us that we are the same.

The Socratic Method

I was just reading The Socratic Method and there were a lot of interesting things that stood out to me. One of these things was that in order for the Socratic Method to work the person must think negatively willing. The Socratic Method is often used to pursue the truth. If one can not think negatively willing they try to not to listen to all the criticism that people say. This method best works when people have developed a sensitivity to logic. The Socratic Method doesn't have to be bad it still has its advantages. One of these advantages is that it helps you with critical thinking. This method is not only good with students but with teachers too. It helps the teacher dive deeper into the subject they are teaching. It helps them think of questions and issues related to the subject. This method also gives the students the chance to send feedback and the teacher has the opportunity to take that into consideration. By also using this method it gives students the chance to let go of their childhood ego by encountering criticism. I think that The Socratic Method is both good for students and teachers because it helps them grow and be open to criticism and feedback. 

Introduction

Hi,
My name is Citlalli Pacheco and I'm a junior at Santa Maria High School. I live with my parents, my sister, and my two dogs. My little sister is 11 years and she is a seventh grader in Fesler Junior High. There isn't many things I do at home because I'm always busy and I really don'y have time. But, when I do have time I like to go outside to my backyard and either play with my dogs or go on my trampoline. Sometimes I also like to listen to music because it helps me distress myself and I get to take a break from school work. On days were I don't have anything to do I like to watch my favorite shows. I come from a Hispanic family so during parties or family gatherings there are a lot of people. My sister and I are the only kids my parents have so we tend to fight occasionally but we always look out for each other. I hope to get along with everybody in my class and also get to learn new things during my year.
