Focus Question: connecting people in a global world is a forward step in combating global issues like poverty and hunger.
Introduction:
We are growing and the world is developing and ways of learning are changing constantly. Did you know that change is constant? Well it is. We are living a change everyday even if can’t notice it. Our world is developing quickly and life in the 21st century is totally different from life before. That means that the way we learn is also changing. These changes are all very big changes but we have learned how to cope with them.
As part of our new learning environment we, in grade 10 VISS, are going to chose a focus question and write an essay discussing it and then we post it on our own blogger (mine is http://hayamportfolio.blogspot.com/ I would love you to visit it and write your own comments on my work!!!!!) and also post it on INET (http://www.ssat-inet.net/ ). This is pretty hard work especially since we didn’t have enough time but as part of the new learning technique I have to learn to organize my time and meet my dead line. Anyway, my focus question is: connecting people in a global world is a forward step in combating global issues like poverty and hunger. I strongly believe that we people are far from fair. We are cruel and heartless and selfish and……… The list never ends. Some of us however are not that kind of people. Some of us are fair and kind and thoughtful. Some of us are always helping others in poor countries like Africa. I am also determined to help these poor people and I will. Some people are already working hard. In the following paragraphs, I will talk about people who started taking action when they were young learners like us. I am sorry if I don’t mention all of the people who are fighting poverty and hunger but again, I will be talking about young learners only and not everyone or then you will just get too bored and close the window.

Hi Hayam
ReplyDeleteThis is a good start. There's enough reflective thinking here to demonstrate your change in perspective with regard to 21st Century learning. You have conveyed authenticity in your writing and it is this that fellow students on the SSAT-iNET conference will relate to.
Now can you write two brief paragraphs on the work of Ryan and Gemma Sisia from the SChool oFSt Jude to support your introduction. This essay is worth sharing with students across the globe.
