Systematic differences COULD arise.
You can't judge appearances or intelligence while online as easy because its more closed and private.
Possible class difference or discrimination for internet quality/ usage. Maybe even noise pollution.

In the way of talking aloud during lectures, while the middle to upper was seen as respectful to the teachers time. also the approach of class not being talked about in the classroom and how some professors will ignore the different classes and have students adjust to the settings. Like most lower class students must do in Colleges. 

Class also relates to social structure. a lot of times people hold themselves, meaning in a dominate form as high class, can determine their class. along with appearance which can build judgement onto the income of the person. ]]> 2020-10-01 19:57:56 UTC https://padlet.com/evakolcze3/1wg7i4a2g3gbpyk7/wish/796228946 https://padlet.com/evakolcze3/1wg7i4a2g3gbpyk7/wish/796229141 2020-10-01 19:58:00 UTC https://padlet.com/evakolcze3/1wg7i4a2g3gbpyk7/wish/796229141 In Hooks classes, she had students write short paragraphs that they read aloud so that students can have a chance to pause and listen to unique perspectives from other students. The physical experience of hearing, of listening intently, to each voice strengthens their capacity to learn together. What makes them successful is associating these voices with personal experiences making us more acutely aware of each other in the classroom. the collective participation creates a more community feeling for learning. https://padlet.com/evakolcze3/1wg7i4a2g3gbpyk7/wish/796230517 2020-10-01 19:58:32 UTC https://padlet.com/evakolcze3/1wg7i4a2g3gbpyk7/wish/796230517 https://padlet.com/evakolcze3/1wg7i4a2g3gbpyk7/wish/796233956 2020-10-01 19:59:47 UTC https://padlet.com/evakolcze3/1wg7i4a2g3gbpyk7/wish/796233956 https://padlet.com/evakolcze3/1wg7i4a2g3gbpyk7/wish/796234659 2020-10-01 20:00:01 UTC https://padlet.com/evakolcze3/1wg7i4a2g3gbpyk7/wish/796234659 https://padlet.com/evakolcze3/1wg7i4a2g3gbpyk7/wish/796237275 2020-10-01 20:01:00 UTC https://padlet.com/evakolcze3/1wg7i4a2g3gbpyk7/wish/796237275 https://padlet.com/evakolcze3/1wg7i4a2g3gbpyk7/wish/796237694 2020-10-01 20:01:10 UTC https://padlet.com/evakolcze3/1wg7i4a2g3gbpyk7/wish/796237694 https://padlet.com/evakolcze3/1wg7i4a2g3gbpyk7/wish/796239186 Class is a form of silence because of the expectations you have to follow to present yourself as a respectable being. Any form of outbursts of interruption, in fact any form of natural human response that doesn’t follow the status quo is deemed unfavorable and shameful. One movie I can recall is a movie called Matilda where a little girl with supernatural abilities goes to school. The principal of the school is one of the strictest teachers I’ve seen. The class goes silent when she enters the room and the fear of being out of line is at its highest. This movie definitely shows a perfect example of classroom silence. ]]> 2020-10-01 20:01:44 UTC https://padlet.com/evakolcze3/1wg7i4a2g3gbpyk7/wish/796239186 https://padlet.com/evakolcze3/1wg7i4a2g3gbpyk7/wish/796241872 Class is a form of silencing within many different movies. For instance, The breakfast club. Class is being represented as 2 of the "lower" class characters get detention for trying to start a rebellion against the "higher" class people. If these 2 "lower" classmen were within the "higher" classes I feel like their rebellion will not be seen the same and nothing would be done to them. This movie uses stereotypical characters of different backgrounds and ethnicity to demonstrate class differences. ]]> 2020-10-01 20:02:45 UTC https://padlet.com/evakolcze3/1wg7i4a2g3gbpyk7/wish/796241872 https://padlet.com/evakolcze3/1wg7i4a2g3gbpyk7/wish/796242984 2020-10-01 20:03:10 UTC https://padlet.com/evakolcze3/1wg7i4a2g3gbpyk7/wish/796242984 https://padlet.com/evakolcze3/1wg7i4a2g3gbpyk7/wish/796248454 The students in these classes come from different backgrounds and social classes.
