“Final Reflection”
Written by: Harold Lester, Jr.

Taking this course has taught me how acknowledge and understand the concept of learning, and better understand how it works in order to successful. I believe after learning the concept of learning, I have a better chance on explaining to one who has not yet taken this course. The way that I understand the concept of learning is one taking the responsibility to establish their goals and build skills to help them become an intentional learner, while identifying their weaknesses and strengths. According to the text, “Learning, whether in a classroom, the real …show more content…

I believe one has to think outside of the box when it comes to their learning patterns. I also believe that it is sometimes better to use the patterns that you use as needed or avoid all together, to help the ones that is use first. For instance, if one’s precision is an avoid learning pattern, and their confluence is a use first learning pattern, by using their confluence to help guide their precision will help them better with their ideas and understand how to use their learning patterns. I believe that sometimes a good thing can become a negative if it is overused. In order to view situations, one has to find different approaches by stepping outside their boundaries. One strategies I use is proofreading and taking notes because it helps me to enhance my critical writing and reading skills. When proofreading, I always read the material twice, allowing my learning patterns to help guide me. By learning the behavior of metacognitive, I have learned to self-regulate my learning patterns, in order to overcome my challenges and understanding my behavior and thoughts by regulating my learning process. Using a word wall or checklist, is also a strategy that will help me to …show more content…

In her essay, Davidson mentions the story of her mother in law who was able to create a new way of learning for her students that was able to inspire kids to learn despite their circumstances. As Davidson mentions in her essay “Like the iPod experiment, what this classroom story shows is that kids want to learn and can propel themselves to all kinds of learning as long as there is a payoff, not in what is won or achieved in statistical terms, but what is won and achieved inside in the sense of self confidence and competence”(67). Mrs. Davidson was able to change and elevate the learning experience that her students get without being a part of what would be considered as an elite institution. Lacking wealth, reputation or prestige makes Mrs. Davidson’s classroom look like a normal classroom despite it being considered elite to Mrs. Davidson students. The standards of judging what is and is not considered elite lacks the ability to truly measure the learning experience that the students experience, As Davidson explains “Put those kids in a lecture hall, give them a standardized curriculum with standardized forms of measuring achievement and ability, and they learn a different lesson.

Sanders offers a new perspective of angle on the concept of learning. When thinking of learning, most jump to memorization or intelligence, but Sanders argues that is not actually learning. He views learning as improving one’s self-image and comprehension so that they can use those skills in the future. He also offers a new perspective on the questions to ask about a college education. One shouldn’t ask how can I get my degree, but rather how they can get the most out of their degree.

The diversity of student backgrounds, abilities and learning styles makes each person unique in the way he or she reacts to information. The intersection of diverse student backgrounds and active learning needs a comfortable, positive environment in which to take root. Dr. King continues by explaining, “Education which stops with efficiency may prove the greatest menace to society. The most dangerous criminal may be the man gifted with reason, but with no morals.” From back then to today’s society, kids are failing because they lack those morals that they need to succeed.

Our educational system is failing us. The United States of America is supposed to be the “greatest” country in the world but statistics are showing that our government/educational system is failing us; children/young adults of the nation. Being a student of a middle ranked school in Arizona, I personally have had a first-hand feel for how good and/or bad teaching affects students. Just in high school I have had teachers that would just assign websites as our lesson and even teachers that sit at their desk for the whole hour; don’t even go over the mindset, homework, and maybe only show one problem so that we’ll know what the homework will be like. Until sophomore year I didn’t even know the differences between you’re, your, too, and to.

In addition to mastering the material the learner, develop other essential skills that will help them to become more rounded individuals. For example, the teacher wants to teach the student about germination would guide the students in the steps to planting and nurturing the seed then ask them to write each day on what they see happening. The writer agrees with this view because real life experiences can build further individualism within children which would help them to make life connections as they

Another method I use is taking notes of what I read and hear, I consider this method extremely important for a reason that is it helps me know the important information from the useless things that I wouldn’t need, and the last method I use is organizing the steps to anything I do because it helps organize my life and also helps me get my work done one by one from the most important to the least or from the hardest to the

There is a third reason which is the Most important reason, is to get a great picture of the cultural diversity of the United States of America. Knowledge of others, their cultures, their sciences and way of life, is useful for learning about a new culture. Some cultures have good qualities and bad recipes, or perhaps do not fit the nature of our lives. For example, my presence in America has made me learn a lot of American cultures that if I find them in my country and may be useful to me or in raising my children such as opening the door to the person walks behind me, honestly I like this behavior which I miss this in my country. In general, the idea of quoting the culture that suits our societies may help us to develop from the reality of our lives.

Final Reflective Paper The decision to return to school is a significant step for adult learners, particularly after a long absence from formal learning, and there are many factors in making that decision. Perhaps to develop or achieve professional goals, higher career status, professional security, or to personal goals, such as, seeking knowledge and new skills. As adult learners, they bring lived experiences and develop knowledge to the classroom, most are self-directed, goal oriented, therefore, have different ways in approaching learning and may require particular learning environments.

Education is a huge issue that not only affects kids and their parents, but their community as well. Schools teach young kids to become the next generation of engineers, technicians, and political leaders, working towards creating a better future for their country and their community. Teachers have the unique job of creating the future leaders of the world, and preparing them for both college and life beyond, by putting a special push towards math and science, the so-called “foundation” of our society. The hard truth is, no one can be anything they want to be. Some people are simply not cut out to be engineers, doctors, or psychologists.

Schools are the second place after home where students’ behavior and future educational success are shaped. At schools there are many elements or factors that can influence the teaching and learning process that may take place. Rasyid (2012) stated that there are four perennial truths that make the teaching and learning process possible to take place in the classroom. If one of these is not available, there will be no teaching and learning process, though the learning process itself may still take place, they are: (1) Teacher, (2) Students, (3) Material and (4) Context of time and place. All of them are related to one another.
