Explanation: 

The quote explains how people who have jury duty will do anything they can to get out of it. He applies it to the student because some students try to get out of work but he encourages them take responsibility and do what you need to do. ]]> 2018-06-06 16:56:45 UTC https://padlet.com/20volatilea/ly0z26mf32z4/wish/265927468 20volatilea https://padlet.com/20volatilea/ly0z26mf32z4/wish/265927526 “we’re connected to others, we become better people.” (176)

Explanation:

Pausch wants to teach them that rights and responsibilities are connected and everyone must contribute to the common good. Not doing that is nothing but selfish.]]> 2018-06-06 16:57:02 UTC https://padlet.com/20volatilea/ly0z26mf32z4/wish/265927526 20volatilea https://padlet.com/20volatilea/ly0z26mf32z4/wish/265927862 Randy says people’s rights should also come with responsibilities to their communities. He uses the example of people wanting the right to a jury trial. In his classes, Randy makes his students sign a contract that outlines their rights to get their work critiqued and displayed and responsibilities to attend class, give their peers honest feedback, work in groups, etc. 
    Randy’s dad decided that players from the older-age divisions would serve as umps for the younger kids, making it an honor to be selected as an ump. So, the kids who became umps realized how hard it was and rarely argued with umpires again, and the younger kids saw role models who had embraced volunteering, making them more likely to do so in the future

Parents try to raise their children right and show them responsibilities that they need to account for. ]]> 2018-06-06 16:58:44 UTC https://padlet.com/20volatilea/ly0z26mf32z4/wish/265927915 20volatilea https://padlet.com/20volatilea/ly0z26mf32z4/wish/265935545 2018-06-06 17:32:17 UTC https://padlet.com/20volatilea/ly0z26mf32z4/wish/265935545 20volatilea https://padlet.com/20volatilea/ly0z26mf32z4/wish/265936919 2018-06-06 17:38:02 UTC https://padlet.com/20volatilea/ly0z26mf32z4/wish/265936919
