In the second Socratic Seminar, as always it influences me to think of certain aspects in a different way. But honestly, the Socratic seminar was redundant throughout the whole second part with my group so the ideas that were being tossed out I was already aware of before hand. I honestly don't have anything that stuck out to me that would have me think so much in depth about.
A statement with my peers that I agree with the most is that Windton is forming a rebellion internally and he is becoming more aware of his thoughts and the power behind them. A statement that I agree with the least is the one that there is no telescreen in the room in the antique shop. I honestly believe there is because why wouldn't there be? Maybe The guy at the antique shop is purposely there to lure in people, maybe he is the thought police in disguise as an ordinary man. If I had the opportunity to say anything I would say that I believe that there is a telescreen somewhere in the room in the antique shop.
What worked well for the seminar is how nobody really overpowered anyone and among our peers we gave respectful opinions and it flowed well. I personally appreciated my partner that I observed because even though she didn't have her prep sheet she still participated in it, which shows that the seminar talked about things that had reasoning and lured you in with logical,ethical, and emotional appeals.
What needs improvement is keeping on track because we tend to get off subject or go too in depth which causes us to lose focus and not really ask the cumulating question that is being asked.
