This question is about "the crucible".

John Proctor is a complex and layered character. He is extremely important to the plot and is one of the main characters. Like any complex character, Proctor has positive and negative points that govern his entire plot.

Among Proctor's negative points we can mention his concern with the appearance and his status. This is because in order not to lose the fame of a correct man, of judgment and of goodness, Proctor allows Abigail to create a plot of lies that leads countless people to suffer and causes an extreme stasis in the city. As a positive point we can mention his ability to reflect and take the blame for his mistakes, even after a great deal of damage had been done.

This positive point made Proctor redeem himself at a certain point in the narrative when he assumes his dishonesty in a public confession and brings a little peace to the region, even if it means his end.

Proctor has a very strong connection with a philosophy called McCarthyism that was very influential in 1950. McCarthyism is characterized as a period in which it was common and even encouraged to accuse people who were considered traitors to the capitalist system. This is related to Proctor, because Abigail started a series of accusations, as a way to punish Proctor for his actions.

Ever have your phone taken away for looking up something that involves your class lesson? If so then you will be happy to find out that it is good to use your phones or other technological devices. 
One reason classrooms should allow technology in the classes is that it can help kids answer questions without having to raise a hand or speak. As it says in,¨ Washington.edu¨, Smartphones are a quick and easy way to survey the kids,which can be good for instant polling, which can quickly assess students’ understanding and keep pace with the kids.
A second reason classrooms should allow tech in the classes is it can help the teachers grade faster and keep track of everything at the same time. As it say in ,¨Washington.edu¨, Course management tools such as Canvas allow instructors to organize all the resources students need for a class and  provide valuable grading tools to create space for more discussion.
One last reason why classrooms should allow tech in the classes is that it can connect to your class or teacher wherever you go. As it says in ¨Washington.edu¨ Online collaboration tools, such as those in Google Apps, allows students and instructors to share documents online, edit them in real time and project them on a screen to show the whole class what you did.
In conclusion, classes should allow tech becasue it can help the students learn better than paper.

hope this helps :) im pretty bad at writing tho
