Outliers, Chapter 4 ("The Trouble With Geniuses Part II") by Stacy Bluth https://padlet.com/sbluth2/oqox33ismfp20y41 In this chapter, Gladwell paints a picture of two people who experience very different life outcomes. Based on what you read in this chapter, think of a word or short phrase (no more than four words) or an image that represents an important aspect of Langan and Oppenheimer's lives. It can be an important fact, a feeling, a connection, part of their background, etc. Anything that describes the person's life. Place one word/short phrase or an image under EACH column. Your contributions will help create a mosaic of their experiences that we can analyze in class. Read your peers' responses and try not to submit duplicates. Feel free to "like" responses that you think are most helping in understanding the very different life outcomes of these two individuals. Please remember to include your name. en-us 2020-08-17 18:26:18 UTC 2025-09-26 05:09:14 UTC hello@padlet.com Very little "practical intelligence" sbluth2 https://padlet.com/sbluth2/oqox33ismfp20y41/wish/683505262 2020-08-17 18:40:45 UTC https://padlet.com/sbluth2/oqox33ismfp20y41/wish/683505262 Lots of "practical intelligence" sbluth2 https://padlet.com/sbluth2/oqox33ismfp20y41/wish/683505642 2020-08-17 18:40:53 UTC https://padlet.com/sbluth2/oqox33ismfp20y41/wish/683505642 Opportunities and Connections ajkarns1 https://padlet.com/sbluth2/oqox33ismfp20y41/wish/688314967 2020-08-19 21:41:41 UTC https://padlet.com/sbluth2/oqox33ismfp20y41/wish/688314967 Innate Ability ajkarns1 https://padlet.com/sbluth2/oqox33ismfp20y41/wish/688316160 2020-08-19 21:42:48 UTC https://padlet.com/sbluth2/oqox33ismfp20y41/wish/688316160 supportive parents cbcrumpl https://padlet.com/sbluth2/oqox33ismfp20y41/wish/688333228 2020-08-19 21:57:42 UTC https://padlet.com/sbluth2/oqox33ismfp20y41/wish/688333228 bad upbringing cbcrumpl https://padlet.com/sbluth2/oqox33ismfp20y41/wish/688334720 2020-08-19 21:58:49 UTC https://padlet.com/sbluth2/oqox33ismfp20y41/wish/688334720 Cultural Advantage sgeorgy https://padlet.com/sbluth2/oqox33ismfp20y41/wish/688420077 2020-08-19 23:23:08 UTC https://padlet.com/sbluth2/oqox33ismfp20y41/wish/688420077 Squandered opportunities & talent because of cultural disadvantage sgeorgy https://padlet.com/sbluth2/oqox33ismfp20y41/wish/688435244 2020-08-19 23:38:02 UTC https://padlet.com/sbluth2/oqox33ismfp20y41/wish/688435244 Lacked ability to alter environment to suit him jalicori https://padlet.com/sbluth2/oqox33ismfp20y41/wish/689180290 2020-08-20 13:32:53 UTC https://padlet.com/sbluth2/oqox33ismfp20y41/wish/689180290 Entitlement and Perseverance jalicori https://padlet.com/sbluth2/oqox33ismfp20y41/wish/689184090 2020-08-20 13:34:14 UTC https://padlet.com/sbluth2/oqox33ismfp20y41/wish/689184090 Worked hard, but lost opportunities for other reasons bjlayko https://padlet.com/sbluth2/oqox33ismfp20y41/wish/689338204 2020-08-20 14:27:43 UTC https://padlet.com/sbluth2/oqox33ismfp20y41/wish/689338204 Understood how to interact with people bjlayko https://padlet.com/sbluth2/oqox33ismfp20y41/wish/689341916 2020-08-20 14:28:56 UTC https://padlet.com/sbluth2/oqox33ismfp20y41/wish/689341916 Gifted intellectual but challenged socially. mtrober2 https://padlet.com/sbluth2/oqox33ismfp20y41/wish/690344856 2020-08-20 20:04:03 UTC https://padlet.com/sbluth2/oqox33ismfp20y41/wish/690344856 Gifted intellectual but smoothly social mtrober2 https://padlet.com/sbluth2/oqox33ismfp20y41/wish/690345999 2020-08-20 20:04:39 UTC https://padlet.com/sbluth2/oqox33ismfp20y41/wish/690345999 Learned helplessness hdmorton https://padlet.com/sbluth2/oqox33ismfp20y41/wish/691511669 2020-08-21 14:50:52 UTC https://padlet.com/sbluth2/oqox33ismfp20y41/wish/691511669 Lucky hdmorton https://padlet.com/sbluth2/oqox33ismfp20y41/wish/691524942 2020-08-21 14:56:20 UTC https://padlet.com/sbluth2/oqox33ismfp20y41/wish/691524942 childhood of submission mwbaker3 https://padlet.com/sbluth2/oqox33ismfp20y41/wish/692291950 2020-08-21 19:33:44 UTC https://padlet.com/sbluth2/oqox33ismfp20y41/wish/692291950 childhood of authority mwbaker3 https://padlet.com/sbluth2/oqox33ismfp20y41/wish/692292420 2020-08-21 19:33:58 UTC https://padlet.com/sbluth2/oqox33ismfp20y41/wish/692292420 victim complex gaturk https://padlet.com/sbluth2/oqox33ismfp20y41/wish/692552875 2020-08-21 23:06:29 UTC https://padlet.com/sbluth2/oqox33ismfp20y41/wish/692552875 controlled own his environment gaturk https://padlet.com/sbluth2/oqox33ismfp20y41/wish/692553815 2020-08-21 23:08:15 UTC https://padlet.com/sbluth2/oqox33ismfp20y41/wish/692553815 Given opportunity to be independent baclapp https://padlet.com/sbluth2/oqox33ismfp20y41/wish/693053136
