Why have sci-fi and dystopian fiction become almost synonyous? brenden_wood https://padlet.com/DayCap/period9generalideas/wish/220340074 Both are speculative and deal with present problems then are twisted in the future.

Why do you think this is the case? https://padlet.com/DayCap/period9generalideas/wish/220340529 We think that young adults have the mindset that they want to get away, move on, start new again and not have anyone to tell us what to do. We enjoy the idea of freedom which is what this literature allows us to experience. We almost use this literature as an escape from reality.]]> 2018-01-10 19:06:15 UTC https://padlet.com/DayCap/period9generalideas/wish/220340529 beau_somers https://padlet.com/DayCap/period9generalideas/wish/220341393 Which would be the better type of leadership: Everyone knows everything or a group a group of leaders that keep secrets?
We would have a group of leaders because there are simply some facts that, in order to maintain peace and order, must be kept hidden from the public. However, as the leaders, we will try to be as open as we can with our citizens.]]> 2018-01-10 19:07:24 UTC https://padlet.com/DayCap/period9generalideas/wish/220341393
