Ok ok, I know I’m a little late… well, very late to be posting this WSQ, but the point is to do it and learn while doing it right? There are no due dates 🙂 . After watching the video a I got a little excited. That seriously looks like a better way of learning. The Tec should apply that method of watching the lesson at home and then solving questions in class. I think there is a a bright future ahead with learning processes. In ken’s class it might seem like he isn’t teaching you anything but in fact he is doing just what he needs to do. I have learned so much in his class even though he only gave us one lecture (the first day of class), it’s surprising.
From the three links that ken gave us, I think the one that I liked the most was this one An A+ student regrets his grades because what he says is so true. I don’t want to brag but over the years I too have gotten good grades and to be honest I don’t remember a lot of the things that I saw in previous classes. Lets be straight you don’t need to be smart to get good grades, you don’t need to know the information. All you need is some imagination and “maña” to get into your professors head. I personally hate History class and believe I got good grades in that class but I hardly remember even who Benito Juarez is. I don’t even remember what I did to ace that class.
On the other hand there is science. I love science, I kind of a nerd because I remember studying math and chemistry all by myself when I was little. The first semester at the
was really hard on me. It was lecture after lecture and guess what… more lectures. Maybe it wasn’t their intention(maybe it was) but my teachers made me feel very stupid because I didn’t know much of the things I was, according to them, supposed to know. It was kind of stressful to ask questions because I just felt more stupid. That didn’t stop me though, I did what I do best. Sat down and listened to the lecture, but the real learning was done at home. And after some time of having ken’s class, I realize that thats the best way to learn.
Well I guess I wrote a little to much about my life but whatever, it has to do with the topic of this WSQ. If there is one thing that I would like to leave very clear is that students have replaced learning with schooling and it has to stop. YES TO #FLIPPED LEARNING.
