Second week of sem started and I am currently in the library, studying. I have a cold and probably a fever *cough* yesterday's coke *cough* but I have to finish my readings for class tomorrow so hopefully I pull through
End of 2nd week of our online classes, and I'm finding it quite hard to manage my time.
I can't find that much time to fully immerse myself in reading non-school related texts and books; but I guess I don't mind it that much. I like our subjects and the strand I take. The topics are more advanced, if not completely different from my junior high years, and I'm liking the challenge that our modules impose
I have the best love hate relationship with organic chemistry.
America's STEM classrooms are devolving — wasting valuable class time with toys, barely applicable coding games, and victim-mentality nonsense.
Why are so many public and private schools led down the paths of cheap entertainment and virtue signaling? It’s easy to create robotics and coding materials that sell. They captivate the imagination and eat up hours of instruction time, freeing teachers to let students sit at their devices and complete tasks governed by outside providers.
On the contrary, it’s a touch more difficult to convince schools that classical STEM skills and vocational training are worth their time. It demands an active educator to coach, create, critique, and troubleshoot. In reality, however, creating a genuine education experience that produces beneficial, long-lasting results for both students and society at large necessitates hard work, not flashy toys or catchy slogans.
Day 6/100 of productivity
Computing and networks today. I find it so amazing that in less than a century, we have explored a totally different world in the form of the internet. I mean, go back a few generations and no-one would have dreamed of studyblrs and social media. Progress is so quick, you blink and you miss it. So keep going with your own progress!
My sister means well, but she’s fallen into the family trap of assuming engineering is the most difficult, important job anyone could ever have.
