I've heard many things about both the movie series & the books, so I believe I have collected enough information to analyze this series. This is the Divergent series, written by Veronica Roth, which revolves around Beatrice Prior, a young woman living in a futuristic world. In this setting, people are categorized into 5 different groups called factions, determined by specific traits they possess. First, there's Dauntless, who are daring & bold. There's also Erudite, composed of the intelligent & cunning. Then, there's Amity, the happy-go-lucky ones, Abnegation, who are selfless & serve others above themselves, Candor, filled with people who aren't afraid to speak their mind, & the very few people left 'factionless'. Finally, there are people who are considered Divergent, who belong to multiple factions. Beatrice just happens to be one of the Divergents, who are coveted, especially by the Erudites. This is mainly because Jeanine, who is leader of the Erudites & the entire Faction System, is determined to unlock a box she has found in a home in the Abnegation section - Beatrice's home, to be exact. The thing is, she needs someone who is Divergent to open the box. Jeanine has tried to open this box with many Divergents, but all have failed. But Beatrice is able to open the box, & now all secrets are revealed. Want to know what all these secrets are? Read the books to find out, & then watch the movies! :DAbout 9 years agobigmelo added a new comment in
Wow, we could really get farther in education with this method. Where I live, the Common Core Curriculum has taken over education, & no one's really that happy about it. I mean, a lot of kids in my grade have never taken the state test before! :D I don't know, but this looks like it's working wonders for the kids in Finland!About 9 years agobigmelo replied to a comment in
