I think that teachers should be creative to blend so-called digital learning/teaching with old-fashioned learning/teaching. · Sir Ken Robinson: Do schools kill creativity? Sir Ken Robinson claims in the clip that " creativity in education is as important as literacy, we should treat it with the same status." I totally agree with all what he said. We have very strict education systems that don't allow a room for mistakes and they categorize people based on their achievements in exams. There is nothing like potentials, creativeness, possibilities or even 2nd chances. Families put high expectations on academic achievements and they always compare their kids with other's kids. A minority in each community will be really dedicated to help their kids explore their horizons. It is true that we should re-think the fundamental principles in which we educate our children

them. Discussion 1 You will probably notice quickly the first two changes that the secretary made. 1 Subject Heading By adding the word deterioration at the beginning of the subject heading, she made it a much more precise and accurate summary of the topic of the report. 2 Organization of Information The way the information in Text 1 was organized was not very logical: The writer told us about the inspections which were made by MCC mechanics before he told us why they were necessary. We therefore miss the point, which the secretary makes clear: the two specific problems de scribed are only examples of a much more general decline in services. The aim of the report is to recommend that legal action should be taken against AMC. The most important piece of information to support this aim is the fact that AMC have broken their contractual obligations
Your thoughts trigger images and pictures, and the emotions that go with them. These images and emotions trigger attitudes and actions.Your actions then have consequences and results that deter- mine what happens to you. If you think about success and confidence, you will feel strong and competent, and you will perform better at whatever you at- tempt. If you think about making mistakes or being embarrassed, you will perform poorly, no matter how good you really are. Pictures and images, from your imagination or from the exter- nal influences, produce ideas, emotions, and attitudes that corre- spond to them. They then trigger actions that bring about certain results and outcomes.The thought of a person or situation can cause you to instantly feel happy or sad, elated or angry, loving or lonely.
essay on education, I propose to say no more about common sense. Similarly, where do concentration, reflection, analysis and criticism enter? Are they best taught individually, or learned wholly as byproducts of studying mathematics, geography, history, etc? It is obvious that such skills are more valuable than any single subject which might be used as the vehicle to develop them. Inequality. Some students, subjected to identical classwork, learn rapidly and progress, while others fail. How can we predict success or failure, and compensate the at-risk children? Few practical options may be available to teachers. It is inevitable in universal public schooling that the extreme students, either dull or bright, will be hurt by our emphasis on the average. It is horrible to admit, but our society cannot assume that all members are capable of being well educated. We have unequal physical, mental and environmental status, and the poorer fringe will always exist
· Sometimes, the only reason a person can miss you is because h/she's choosing, every day, NOT to be with you. · If you don't want the truth, don't ask me. If you want something sugarcoated, go eat a donut. · TYPICAL GUY:: hurts before he's hurt & leaves before he's left. Beats u at every goodbye. Never feeling guilty about it. BEWARE GIRLS! · People ask "why is it so hard to trust?", I ask "why is it so hard to keep a promise?" · The biggest mistake I've made in my life is letting people stay in my life far longer than they deserve. · Sometimes, I think we waste our moments, we don't take the time to say the things that are in our hearts when we have the chance. · I'm going to treat people exactly HOW they treat me. Some should be glad. Others should be scared. · Hate is just another word for someone you love, but no longer believe in. · Sometimes, some things go wrong so you'd appreciate them when they're right.
words up. I also recall the pronounciation was simplified for us, for example, they taught us "gööl" as the correct way to say "girl" etc. They never mentioned that it's not exactly correct... But well, then I switched schools and met the most important man of my life – my English teacher. He had three masters – in English, in German and in Physical Education. He had also written the school hymn. He was very stern with us and made us study like crazy. You made one tiny mistake, and it was "4", two mistakes made a "3" and so on. He was an awesome teacher. He said we can talk in his class as much as we want provided we do it in English. He also had us count the passing train cars in English, instead of Estonian. He made up the books himself, because there were none at the time, because the old books were full of "Ann is a Pioneer" and there were no new ones, so he printed out materials from some Oxford text books and wherever he could find something suitable for us
