There is so little knowledge of what the students are going through right now. Now I see that the students want to be heard, they want the society to take them seriously and they want to make their own decisions about where to <a href="http://essayonlinestore.org/research-papers.html" rel="nofollow">order research paper</a> or what they should learn or practice. Time shows that young people see the world in their own different way. Right now we have to listen to the voice of youth and give them the chance to express themselves.

Several friends have offered to teach me the algorithms necessary to solve the cube, but I've turned them all away. I have a small pamphlet that describes different stages the cube goes through in order to solve it, as well as the algorithm. Instead of following the algorithm, "turn this left, this right, etc." I've been trying to find different ways to arrive to the stages. I've been learning mostly from watching my friends solve it and then coming up with theories and testing them. I'm currently studying linguistics in college, and this is all we do. We're presented a language and are given the challenge of taking it apart and reconstructing in such a way that makes sense. One of the reasons why I left the math department (I was a math major for two years) was that there was just so much stress around getting the right answer. AS you mentioned, I was often focused in my failure that it was hard for me to learn. It sounds like this was a very sobering experience; thank you for sharing!

Now, I am studying education. I would like to now, how do you think this communication gap can be eliminated? What can teachers do to make sure they are successfully relating to their students?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03534277244306265582noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5964889903484807623.post-31682167743254335262017-02-17T10:07:07.649-08:002017-02-17T10:07:07.649-08:00I think this is a great story to tell.

I once had a teacher that at the end of every new thing we learned she would ask who is lost or didn't understand something? If you did not raise your hand she would then assume you understood and she would randomly pick a student to do an example on the board. She would then go help the students that had trouble. I thought this was a great way to keep students honest and to see if they are really understand and to help students understand and not fall behind.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13723125679144476460noreply@blogger.com
