Matteo Scotto 4/18/20 Living in a time of crisis changes certain people but not everyone. People that rely on social interaction are having a harder time than people that would prefer to stay home by themselves. I do think most people will cheat, but with certain questions, you really can’t. For instance, you can’t cheat with this assignment because it asks for your specific thoughts on the matter. I think with schedules it is harder for students to do work because we have to be online whenever our teachers want us to be online. It used to be that the teachers were on our schedule, but now we have to be on their schedules, ready to take the assignments. I believe the workload is becoming heavier than it used to be because the teachers are trying harder to help their students with teaching, and so they have to give more assignments since they can’t give lectures.

Matteo Scotto 4/16/20 1) How did Plato define The Forms? Plato defined them as the ideal versions of the things and concepts we see around us. 2) Who are the three groups in Plato’s ideal society? Producers, Military, and Leaders. 3) What were Plato’s thoughts on women? Plato was inconsistent with his thoughts on women. He thought they were equally able to rule but also thought they were similar to children and their womb was an alive animal that would move around the body and cause illness. 4) What was the Noble Lie that Plato proposed? The Noble Lie that Plato proposed was that we're all is born with gold, silver, or a mixture of brass and iron in our souls. This would determine our roles in life.
