B. "Redundant as it may sound to anyone who has recently found themselves in contortions of profound emotional discomfort over a purely made-up scenario, this extremely old technology could prove to be the most powerful and readily abundant weapon we’ve got."
C. Books and the stories they tell provide the stepping stones in building morality. Readers who develop an emotional connection with the book are probably learning from it as well, which supports my claim that soft skills can be obtained from my novel.]]> 2017-02-14 16:55:09 UTC https://padlet.com/17sniegcg/k3b1xqpimqnv/wish/153783764 #2 17sniegcg https://padlet.com/17sniegcg/k3b1xqpimqnv/wish/153787250 A.

B. Science is on the verge of being able to prove that "certain reading experiences are crucial to the development of the human conscience." Scientists are building on and exploring a new field, deemed the Theory of Mind. This is described as "the human capacity to comprehend that other people hold beliefs and desires and that these may differ from one’s own beliefs and desires.” 
C. The Theory of Mind is working towards the relationship of the development of someone's beliefs and desires being dependent on a readers personal taste in fiction. This demonstrates how different soft skills are acquired by different people.]]> 2017-02-14 17:03:11 UTC https://padlet.com/17sniegcg/k3b1xqpimqnv/wish/153787250 #1 17sniegcg https://padlet.com/17sniegcg/k3b1xqpimqnv/wish/154193095 A.

B. “A stranger is shot in the street, you hardly move to help. But if, half an hour before, you spent just ten minutes with the fellow and knew a little about him and his family, you might just jump in front of his killer and try to stop it. Really knowing is good. Not knowing, or refusing to know is bad, or amoral, at least. You can’t act if you don’t know.” (pg. 199)
C. This will support my idea of the moral dilemmas that many people struggle with. ]]> 2017-02-16 00:05:51 UTC https://padlet.com/17sniegcg/k3b1xqpimqnv/wish/154193095 #1 17sniegcg https://padlet.com/17sniegcg/k3b1xqpimqnv/wish/154193231 A. P - 2
B. “Too late, I found you can't wait to become perfect, you got to go out and fall down and get up with everybody else.” (pg. 136)
C. This quote perfectly describes personality development and how people can learn soft skills from the novel.]]> 2017-02-16 00:07:24 UTC https://padlet.com/17sniegcg/k3b1xqpimqnv/wish/154193231 #1 17sniegcg https://padlet.com/17sniegcg/k3b1xqpimqnv/wish/154193575 A. P - 3
B. “Dad," said Will, his voice very faint. "Are you a good person?"

"To you and your mother, yes, I try. But no man's a hero to himself. I've lived with me a lifetime, Will. I know everything worth knowing about myself-" (pg. 134)
C. Will and his dad are discussing what it takes to be a good person which will tie into the soft skill of integrity.]]> 2017-02-16 00:11:50 UTC https://padlet.com/17sniegcg/k3b1xqpimqnv/wish/154193575 #1 17sniegcg https://padlet.com/17sniegcg/k3b1xqpimqnv/wish/154193706 A. P - 4
B. “Oh, it would be lovely if you could just be fine, act fine, not think of it all the time.” (pg. 135)
C. This quote demonstrates the idea that everyone struggles internally with their identity. Soft skills can aid this.]]> 2017-02-16 00:13:10 UTC https://padlet.com/17sniegcg/k3b1xqpimqnv/wish/154193706 #1 17sniegcg https://padlet.com/17sniegcg/k3b1xqpimqnv/wish/154193886 A. P - 5
B. “And I saw then and there you take a man half-bad and a women half-bad and put their two good halves together and you got one human all good to share between.” (pg. 136)
C. This quote will support my point that each person has their own individual beliefs and values, but that does not mean that they will be perfect. People need other people.]]> 2017-02-16 00:15:35 UTC https://padlet.com/17sniegcg/k3b1xqpimqnv/wish/154193886 #1 17sniegcg https://padlet.com/17sniegcg/k3b1xqpimqnv/wish/154194633 A. P - 6
B. “Some boys walk by and you cry, seeing them. They feel good, they look good, they are good. Oh, they're not above peeing off a bridge, or stealing an occasional dime-store pencil sharpener; it's not that. It's just, you know, seeing them pass, that's how they'll be all their life; they'll get hit, hurt, cut, bruised, and always wonder why, why does it happen? how can it happen to them?” (pg. 18)
C. This paragraph demonstrates how soft skills are taught through the diction and characters in the novel. ]]> 2017-02-16 00:22:57 UTC https://padlet.com/17sniegcg/k3b1xqpimqnv/wish/154194633 #1 17sniegcg https://padlet.com/17sniegcg/k3b1xqpimqnv/wish/154194779 A. P - 7
B. "All the meannesses we harbor, they borrow in redoubled spades. They're a billion times itchier for pain, sorrow, and sickness than the average man. We salt our lives with other people's sins." (pg. 201)
C. This quote is a counterexample for people having integrity. The carnival is the best example of this in the novel.]]> 2017-02-16 00:24:29 UTC https://padlet.com/17sniegcg/k3b1xqpimqnv/wish/154194779 #1 17sniegcg https://padlet.com/17sniegcg/k3b1xqpimqnv/wish/154195524 A. P - 8
B. "Good is no guarantee for your body. It's mainly for peace of mind--" (pg. 134)
C. This quote demonstrates how you need to have an equal balance of hard and soft skills.]]> 2017-02-16 00:33:02 UTC https://padlet.com/17sniegcg/k3b1xqpimqnv/wish/154195524 #3 17sniegcg https://padlet.com/17sniegcg/k3b1xqpimqnv/wish/154198061 A. O - 3
B.  "According to Goleman (2000), "soft skills" entail qualities such as self-awareness, self-regulation, motivation, empathy, and social skill, while "tough skills" pertain to traits 
 such as intelligence, analytical/technical skills, determination, rigor, and vision."
C. Using this quote I will be able to provide the reader with background knowledge of soft and hard skills, which they can then apply to the rest of my essay.

B. ""Primary" and "secondary" worlds and beliefs are Tolkien's terms (in "On Fairy Stories" 37) for, respectively, the world we actually live in and the beliefs we actually hold, and for theworlds authors create as conscious fictions and the credit wegive to these fictions as plausible and emotionally engaging."
C. This quote will support my point that the emotions a novel evokes from a reader can lead to a development of soft skills in that reader.]]> 2017-02-16 00:56:58 UTC https://padlet.com/17sniegcg/k3b1xqpimqnv/wish/154198462 #4 17sniegcg https://padlet.com/17sniegcg/k3b1xqpimqnv/wish/154198913 A.

B. "Ray Bradbury is familiar
to most people as someone who, since the 1950's, has introduced 
more young readers to horror and the macabre than almost any 
living writer."
C. This quote shows that the author of my novel is not afraid to incorporate elements into his novels that he knows will leave his reader with a long lasting impression/learning opportunity.

B. "Beyond the obvious appeal of the book's temptation theme and the father-son relationships which are strong in it, I think that laughter, which has such a primal, visceral function for Bradbury as a sign of the capacity to affirm and to enjoy life, may be the key to understanding its success among young readers, for laughter is the primary means by which the 
fearsome carnival with its evil sideshows is unmasked, defeated,
and transformed. '
C. I will use laughter as a demonstration of a soft skill to support my claim.

B. " The fortune-telling Gypsy Dust Witch, for example, embodies our superstitious fears of fate and our subjection to 
chance."
C. This character is an example of how Bradbury communicates soft skills to the readers using the characters.

B. "We soon learn that it is the function of the mirror maze, which operates during the day, to lure people back to the 
carnival at night by showing them reflections of a part of themselves that they once were or would wish to be, so that 
they are plunged into aching despair. It represents, then, the whole world of interiority and regret that can threaten or
destroy our capacity to affirm our lives."
C. This will support my claim that everyone battles their own internal conflicts, but soft skills can aid in fighting these conflicts.

B. "" In this manner, through an analysis of emergence and descent, Halloway is able to 
interpret the carnival as a machine that feeds off the guilt such people as those who join the carnival, abandoning wives, 
husbands, and friends, provide."
C. This will serve as a counterexample in the novel of the portrayal of soft skills. The carnival makes people act against their soft skills.
