Homework


Kurt Melcher, who runs the program at Robert Morris, said that games adopted for the academic environment develops strategy teamwork. I’d like to support the statement basing on the New York Times’ articles on the topic of using technology in education.
 In one of NY articles named « Programmed for success» it is written: «in 2013 students started organizing themselves, creating their own opportunities for gaming. »…«Players attend practice Monday through Thursday, from 4:30 to p.m., with an hour break for dinner. They analyze film, participate in team-building activities, and sit for communication sessions. » What that means is that students learn how to collaborate with each other by playing games. It is moreover a great opportunity for them to win a prize and pay for their education – a great motivation, isn’t it?

P eople differently make desicions during their lifetime, they want to try themselves everywhere. T hese are the stories of those, who'd found himself and who still searchs for. A ll of us are able to get used to any conditions, that's what exactly motivate, lead us to the action.

Teaching and learning online

Should all teaching and learning take place online now?  Isn't it amazing that nowadays we can study right at home, with no books or school supplies. Without a doubt, it makes us feel pretty comfortable, studying with help of computer systems is a quite simple thing, but could it ever supersede the (school) real educational process?  So what is the main argument against? Many people, including me, are against of online education because of it's form, "you and the teacher" To my mind it makes you becoming further in society.
