JOURNAL TOPIC: [today's tunes: "Move On Up" by Curtis Mayfield]
"Action expresses priorities." -Mohandas Gandhi
What are your priorities? Specifically, what are you doing here? Why are you enrolled in this course? What actions can your colleagues and I expect from you this year that will express your priorities? What does success look like to you? How will we know when you've "made it"? If you've ever set bold goals at the beginning only to accept less at
the end, how can you prepare your mind to see things through this time
around so you won't have any regrets next June?

This video was very inspiring and made me realize having such opportunity to use the internet as a learning source defiantly expresses ones individuality due to its big part of our daily lives now. It enables us as teens to find interest in such subjects then through a book. Keep this up it will change the perspective of education for the better!
ReplyDeleteIt's a known fact that as time goes on technology becomes more advanced and those living in the society will eventually drift away from the "old school" style of learning such as books,etc. Because everyone learns differently, the internet can aid in helping these types of students where a teacher is only rooted in one style. The way I precieve this is Preston sees the significance in finding/having different opportunities for students to learn to learn.
