Controversy: The Importance Of Rudimentary Courses

Many of the concepts you will be learning throughout this course are best understood as well as more interesting if you

I want really know it so that I can apply it in the future when I need it like when applying for a job or looking for a job. When I learn things from other classes I’ve taken, the information is learned for a temporary period of when I need the information in class, but later, I tend to forget and not retain everything I’ve learned. The curriculum in this class seems to be things that I can really benefit from fully understanding and being able to know how to use these tools, I will be prepared for the future. In order to do this, I will read all the required chapters from the book and make sure I attend class everyday. I believe this goal goes hand in hand with the other 2 goals I’ve set and will help to drive me towards doing my best in the class overall. Keeping in mind the fact that the class will be very useful for my future, I feel that this is a good goal to work towards so that I don’t forget the work I put into this

Through their teachers, Ecotopian students ultimately learn how to be individuals within their local environment and provide care towards it. However, the lack of core knowledge and subjects does not help prepare students to be scientists. Although the emphasis of biology helps the student learn about his or her environment and sustainability, without common knowledge of language, math, and science, the student cannot make wise decisions about his or her “green” future. Ecotopian teachers helps students enhance their notion of biology but they do not concentrate on subjects correlated to biology.

In my schooling, I studied subjects that include science along with mathematics which helped me to develop awareness in the above courses.

Humans have always tried to understand scientific concepts relevant to the individual and to society. Basically, the branch of science started out when ancient people like Nicholas Copernicus, began to wonder about our world. Unlike earlier philosophers, Copernicus applied a systematic method to find answers to his question about our solar system. Views of how science works should be kept simple. Observe your world, find a problem to solve and then apply methods to find the answer. Young children do this naturally. Education should take adavantage of the natural curiosity of the children and apply it to the classroom. Always considering safety of course, teachers should allow time for observation and let students discover answers through their own experimentation. While prominent professors claim science teaching is complicated, like when Richard, J. Hamilton from Arizona State University claims "The whole prosess of learning has turned out to be far more complex than most imagined, and I believe that science educators are struggling to find a new, more effective approach to the complexity" (Hamilton, 1992, p. 202). Respectfully disagreeing, science is still simple. Two like charges simply repel and discovering the concept is not complex. Students learn by exploring and teaching science must incorporate this hands-on approach in order to reach mastery of required teaching

When I was still in scouting, several friends and I spent a week at a scouting camp. Boy scout summer camps are usually secluded in the forest. While I was there I became more confident in myself and learned the value of connecting back with nature. The reason for this is they want you to get away from the city and get you back into nature for a week. This idea is unique and there are no longer many places who do this anymore. While you are in the camp you forget about what you were doing back in the city, and you just focus on nature and hanging out with your friends in camp.

I have learned about the core subjects but also several elective courses designed to teach important skills. In my core classes I have studied several

4. Students would be introduced and adept in the fields of eLearning which is used and most colleges and universities.

I have been fortunate enough to have a variety of supervisors in my practicum placements. I had several female supervisors and one male supervisor who have all contributed to my training. The books and discussions in class brought up a discussion that I have never thought about before, which was the gender of the supervisor. However, one thing that I could say with certainty is that gender does play a role in the way supervisors conceptualize things. At my practicum there are gender misunderstanding that occur. The questions that are asked to me are different and more geared towards possible sexual countertransference, which makes me feel like I am treated with “kid gloves”. From my point of view there is a gender misunderstanding because

In addition to traditional classroom education, knowledge is also critical in order to create a more

One of the most important aspects of the IB curriculum is that students are introduced to

a. Prior academic learning, prerequisite skills, and understanding of the nature of science related to the central focus—Cite evidence of what students know, what they can do, and what they are still learning to do.

One moment where I felt like I used the On-Course concepts was planning out my week how I would ideally like it or where I can put myself on the path to success. I plan out my week to give myself a visual representation of how I would like things to run and when I would do what. This also helped me have a map of not procrastinating and having the weekend to relax and prepare for the following week. Of course, sometimes things would not go how I would plan them, there was a week where I had a midterm, I would have a plan of how that week would look like but when that week came, it came with challenges. This week where I had a midterm I tended to study for my midterm more than doing my homework for other classes and leaving it until last minute.

For example, when students have to learn math of history in such a deep level that almost no one specialization and job required, there is an adequate question, for what do they need it? It take a lot of energy and time to remember and understand all information, but if nobody ask for this knowledges, it become useless and absolutely not interesting. From another hand, when people choose the courses they will be interested in, it will increase their interest and productivity of learning process.

The National Curriculum for Science (2013), anticipates to advance all pupils’ scientific knowledge and conceptualise understanding through the segmented scientific approaches; biology, chemistry and physics. In addition, pupils should have an awareness of the nature, processes and approaches used within science, through the various scientific enquires that enable pupils to answer questions related to the world and life. Finally, the aims of the science curriculum also consider that children must have the resources to fund the knowledge that is necessary to use science in the, present and future tense states the Department of Education (2013).
