I am supposed to come up with a discussion question share with my other classmates on Book VII of The Republic. I was wondering if this sounds okay or if someone could give me suggestions for another question.
In the cave there are different levels of education being represented. In the beginning when all the people are bound and are unable to see beyond the shadows before them they are at the stage of a low education. They can’t see or understand that something exists past the shadows. I believe that this is a representation that the lowest form of education is imagination. Some of the people talk about the objects and “the names they used applied to the things they see passing before them?” So they are inventing meaning to the shadows. So what I am wondering is if imagination is the lowest form of education then would “ART” be considered a minimal meaning to education?

A lot of guys talk to me like I'm their therapist. They tell me their problems and then they compliment me about whatever, they say I'm a good listener, too. I want to talk about fun stuff though, and not how terrible you've been treated in the past. Does this mean something else, guys? Clue me in please.

That their presence in observing a culture might make their subjects act differently than they would if the anthropologist were not there. It seems like this would be a persistent question that anthropologists would be asked, so I'm curious as to how they answer it.
Does anyone have a professional methodological reference that I can look up?
I need it for my personal research.

If differences are illusionary, then do two people* who seem to disagree actually hold the same opinion?
*I use this term for the sake of practicality.

when she hears some one call me by my nick name she will repeat it sometimes and she walks pretty close and sync with me. I walked really close to her one day and as i walked by out of the corner of my eye i could see her eying me down and she constantly fixes her hair and clothes when im near. Today she hid something on me and i still cant find it but i know she is the one it moved it but she hasnt told me. I was sitting next to her and she kept brushing agiasnt me and she would keep her arm touching mine more a while like it didnt bother her at all we were touching
