Hello everybody! Thanks for your cooperation during the Halloween role plays. In this opportunity you have to write a short freewriting about the following cartoon. Write 50 words at least.
well... it was a bit tricky to me understand the idea of this cartoon!! hehehe... but i guess that the message is: we are so used to not learn nothing nowdays that when we do, it is a big surprise hehehe...!!! moreover, this cartoon reflects for me, the education need, I mean, the need for better education for children.
I think this happens to all of us. Sometimes happen more frequently in some students than in others "hehehe". in many cases, we are able to learn quickly because we slept well or perhaps we had a good week or in some cases have more free time but when this happens and its very rarely, for most students is very surprising arrive to home and remember lessons learned in class.
it's very interesting this case, because in the life of the many people the act of remembering to short time is very difficult, for many people need to stay at home studying, because is more easy at the time when you want to learn something, but is very amazing see today the people are surprised when they can remember that they have learned in class, its a controversial case in the educacion of today!
Each person has a very unique way to understand things! as we have seen in class It is part of the learning process. it could depends on the method used by the teacher or if the student is giving a lot of percentage in paying attention in class because is very common the distractions between classmates, and of course we all have lived that situation when you come from school and you try to remember the object and you can`t do it very well
Hi guys, well I think the picture is very suggestive because in my personal opinion I think this couple of kids talking about how scaring is to get home still remembering what they learned in their school day. I should also add that no matter how sad it seems this attitude they are taking the kids today and that maybe we in our elementary school days also adopted is very real and something quite evident in the student youth today.
Childhood is a stage where more attention is pay to the fun, sharing different activities as games and jokes with friends. But little by little is getting interest, for example study, where children embark on a new path to knowledge. However, these changes may come as a surprise to the children that produce a certain fear of their development. BY: Laura Ayala
the children and in general all have different ways of understanding or learning. sometimes fear that you feel can be when something do not like, a matter for example. therefore teachers should have in their hands the tools necessary to make learning in their students be more interactive, fun and educational.
Well, the truth is that it is normal for children to have a very short attention span. For me there is not much to say about it, except that classes often take place in the school does not attract much attention of children, that’s why it’s so strange to remember what they learned. By Yolmar Hernández
At the first time I laughed, but I think several things like this: probably the character has bad memory, maybe He learned something that caught his attention and He can´t forget, and finally is possible He is so smart, because He keeps in his mind only the most important things. I think the most important is teachers catch attention from students and develop many ways to generate interest. By Eurydice Barboza.
I think the child is surprised because he still remembers what he learned,is very important arouse the interest and motivation of the students in the study to learn more quickly, because some do not have the ability to learn or remember it easily. today the lessons need to be more fun and didactic because children are easily distracted and not pay attention to the teacher. BY:Charley Valero
At first I was confused with this cartoon, but it is interesting. I think it is amazing to see how children themselves are surprised when they are able to remember what they have learned, because nowadays, most children have lost their retention due to the lack of attention to class, either because of lack of motivation from the teacher and sometimes a lack of student interest.
Greetings, I think that children are easier to remember the knowledge learned, though most of them wish to do so, because I always want to play. That's because there is no interest in school or by the teacher or by parents. Motivation must come from both sides as it will help the child to a better mental development and to remember what you learned in class and do not be surprised. By: Eynor Cárdenas
The childhood is an ideal age for the heap of knowledge and though it predominates over the amusement is undoubted that a knowledge with significant experiences, will be a learning that will last in the children and girls of solid form. It is there where the pedagogic methodology plays his important incident in the school education, and the real consolidation of knowledge in the formation of the individuals. By: Diego Contreras
That is where we see that most students do not pay attention at the time of the class, and when we remember something said by the professor to remember as much surprised to hear anyclass topic. In the cartoon that´s what´s what reflects a sample of what you see today. By: Gladys Zambrano.
well i think that the answer for this picture is just one. the kids always are thinking in play nintendo or do funny things, and in the last place, they thing in the homework and the responsabilities that theyhave .i used to be one of them jejejeje howeever this is a normal situation in this days by: Yhonatan Garcia
I consider that maybe that kid always is boring in class, don't pay attention or is distracted in other things, but this time something caught him. I think it's really important for a teacher consider the public at who will be directed the process of teaching, and that way be able to plan funny or entertained activities, to catch students' eyes because they are not always motivated and soon lose the interest in a class. By: Edilmar Moreno
I think a lot of us can relate; I think that especially during high school sometimes we left the class room not knowing what we just did. Maybe because we had our minds somewhere else, a problem or something we wanted to do and even the teacher could’ve been the problem. As a teacher you need to work your best to get your students attention, so they can learn. If things aren’t working maybe is time for a change. A teacher must keep things interesting to be successful in the teaching process. By: Kiara Isidro.
The Knowledge is memorized depending of divers factors internal and external, for example: the incentive of the teacher or the motivation of the students, also the likes or dislikes about of the theme; but if the teacher can get the continuous attention of the students and the information is clare, easy and interesting can be learned quickly for the students. Bad experiences also can teach us, but nobody wants to remember bad things. By: Rumenique Meza
Children get easily distracted, especially when they are studying a subject they found boring. What to do to avoid the distraction, and achieve a meaningful learning process? I think that the use of strategies to keep children interested is very important. Also, to explain the importance of the process, and recognize the work that the child is doing.
Well, I try to understand the idea of this cartoon. I guess that the message is: The children understand everything that give the teacher in classroom, because the most children are learning quickly and they are very smart this days. Or I think that this cartoon show us that nowadays in Venezuela the children need for better education. Actually in Venezuela the education is a little bad, compared with others countries, like Colombia and United States, that the level education is high.
I find it interesting the way the child can remember what they learned in class, compared with a different reality in most cases, my point is, I guess around the world a high percentage of students, after school could not remember what ther learned, because it is normal that someone always will be distracted, I repeat, I guess, it is just a point of view.
Hello! well i think this cartoon is so funny for me, because this case its happens to me, maybe, the class is boring or the kid has his mind in other world. The kids loves the dynamic class, this form helps to understand. Maybe i'm wrong but this my opinion
At first I didn't understand the cartoon's idea, because it supposed that children goes to the school to learn, but I think this is a way of sarcasm to criticize the education system of nowadays. Children are so used to don't learn anything that they feel scared when remembered what they learned in class.
The first time I saw the picture I couldn’t help but laugh, not because it is funny but because that is the reality nowadays. Children are drawn more and more into technology and maybe that is why they don’t feel like they should learn anything if they can easily “Google it”, so they learn for the moment or for any test they might have. This is a serious issue that has been increasing over the years and it needs to be stopped right know before it gets bigger.
Humorists always strike home. Education nowadays has to compete roughly with T.V, music, movies, video games and others, to get kids attention. The feeling of knowing something useful and new, it seems awkward to kids because at that age everything they really care is watching the new Ben 10 episode.
I find that, currently, education has lost its motivational and inspirational fact. This may have caused that children also have lost their desire to learn; so when it does happen, and they actually learn something, or at least pay attention and get interested, it become a new experience for them and are amazed by it.
I could not understand the picture at first, but them, i could. Is really amazing how kids and actually young people like us, go to the classes and they do not receive the information like they should, i mean, in our days so many students go to school to do so many things but no for studying. There are so many problems for this, i guess, the teachers use to do their classes like always, they do not try somethings news, maybe the students feel bored in class. Could be maybe our parents that are working everyday and they do not push us to do the rigth things. So in our way like teachers we have to learnd about all this to put in practice different ways to carrry the information to our students in a way that they would not feel bored about the subject we are explaining about.
First of all, I have to say that I feel identified with this cartoon, I mean, all of us have a class that is really bored, and being honest, when we go out after it, we have no idea of what we learned, so this can help us, if we going to be teachers, that we should have some good ways to teach, and catch the atention of our students, so then we'll be doing our job in a better way.
At the moment, children don't surprised with anything, even, they know more about things that we don't know. The education is so poor in these days that children don't seem to be interested in what they're learning in schools but in what they see in television programs and street. That's why, they search on the Internet and they learn from there instead of paying attention in what teachers teach in schools.
hello! again! this it's a funny and interesting topic. I loved the cartoons, when I was a child remember that everyday I was sitting together to the Tv watching the cartoons and I never tired. Today I think that the cartoons are the real representation of our childhood,sometimes, the cartoons were our the entertaiment for hours and hours and ever we dreamed that flew, fought with their powers, off course, and talked with our favorite heroes. I watched so lot the cartoons that a big part of my imagination it's for living this healty stage. they are the representation of beautifull moments of my infance and sometimes, I think that even live a child on my being.
This picture shows when a pupil learn something is a surprise himself, but also shows how the education sometimes isn’t interesting for some students; the reason may be various, like the students don’t like the education model, and they feel so boring in the classroom, besides the teachers also are a factor important, because they don´t know whether the students understand the information or not, of course the teachers realize test but it isn’t enough to check whether the pupil learn or not, therefore is important that the teachers improve their teach method for to help the students to learn, moreover the schools should have excellent foundations. The teachers and The School ought to do everything possible to motivate the students.
This cartoon shows us how the education is nowadays. I think that these days the education has turned into a weird process because nowadays, a student gets into a class, and that person is not really interested in the class. This shows us that we go to a class and we do not understand because we are always thinking about some other stuff. This kid is amazed because he remembers what he learned in class that week, and that is scary for him because he is not used to that kind of feeling.
i think that the picture is about how us students learn only for the moment, instead of really learning something for our life times, we study for the test and that's all, sometimes we forget what the class was about right after it is finished. This is a system of education that must improve.
When there's a significant learning on the student, this has largely to do with the way the teacher conducts its classes. If all teachers include increasingly new pedagogical and didactic tools, and stop teach thier classes in traditional way, and give more participation to students, then this kind of opinions would no strange, as the student, to have more interest in a subject can further develop their cognitive part and don't forget so quickly the objectives given in classes.
This image shows the reality we live today students since the vast majority come to class and are aware of everything, less than the porfesor is explaining. we must be aware and pay attention in class and that education is the foundation of knowledge to be learned for life and not for the moment. for the child to remember the picture is amazing the kind of week that happens to many who attend school and are in another world when the teacher is talking. written by: Liliana rivas C.I. 20288586
