REPORT ON HOW TO BE KINDER TO ENVIRONMENTS

 

Introduction

In recent years, our environments having been destroyed anywhere the people live and there are many significant environmental problems. What can the students or Chongshin University do to be kinder to environments? There are the problems and recommendations.

Main problems

1.     In the University, there are many trash cans. However, most students are not likely to separate the trash before throwing it away.

2.     The Professors and students are likely to use more the automobiles than public transports.

3.     In the summer or winter, many people in the University unnecessarily use much of the energy by working often air-conditioning or heater.

Recommendations

   1.     We need to separate the trash. If we use tumbler or mug, much trash could be diminished.

   2.     We need to use the public transports when we come in the University. Although we could feel uncomfortable, the method could help to decrease the air pollution.

   3.     We need to reduce the electric energy. With the rising cost of energy, we might consider using more energy-efficient equipment.

 

The most interesting lecture in this semester is Introduction to the Foundation Special Education.

The reason is that this lecture let me know the exact meaning of the definition of the Special Children and Education. The students could participate in the class by giving presentations or discussing their thoughts with the Professor about the class. Freely discoursing or a good mood is to me very exciting.

We have to reflect on lesson of the day online and the reflection papers are shared with other students by commenting on them. The professor gives us the various experiences and I could better understand the filed or the phenomenon of the Special Education. Recently, we have to hand out the report. We need to watch the program that introduces the best special education teacher and write about teaching methods used by him. During preparing it, I could know that theory and practice are closely related and what useful methods are.

I also think that the curriculum and teaching method of the professor are extremely helpful and valuable. He not only teaches the students the theory but also make us think that in the society, the special children must be cared for. That’s why I think the lecture is the most interesting thing.

REVIEW OF THE LECTURE “HOW TO GROW THE FRESH AIR”    link to the video

The speaker of the lecture was Kamal Meattle who lived in India. He had a problem of lung capacity because of the allergic to Delhi’s air and he decided to study plants in order to recover Delhi’s air. With the help of IIT, TERI and learning from NASA, they discovered that there were three basic green plants, with which they can grow all the fresh air in the old building.

The amazing results are that they can reduce energy requirements in the building because they need less fresh air and increase human productivity by over 20% by using these plants. They can discover that there is a reduced incidence of eye irritation by 52%, respiratory systems by 34%, headaches by 24%, lung impairment by 12% and asthma by 9%.

I want to recommend this lecture. What do you actually know about importance of air? I felt that we have to recognize the importance during watching it and need to practice the simple methods after watching it. Try to implement the changes by bringing amazing plants indoors.

I admire Maria Montessori

I admire Maria Montessori who was originator of the Montessori method of education for preschool children. She was the first woman to receive a medical degree in Italy. I think that she was the great woman because at that time, It was hard for women to have right to learn at university. She worked with subnormal children as a psychiatrist at the University of Rome. It was there that she pioneered in the instruction of retarded children, especially through the use of an environment rich in manipulative materials. She thought that this method could be made in the education of normal preschool children. The chief components of the Montessori method are self-motivation and auto-education. This method is also very useful and meaningful at the present. After I was interested in education, I thought that education was very important for society and individual. And then I accidentally knew method of her in a book. That was extremely exciting method. She must have thought that a child will learn naturally and the teacher acts as an observer and only interferes as needed. I also agree the surprising method. She tried to reverse the traditional education system and for ages the Montessori method has been authorized. The method of Maria Montessori is a groundbreaking idea. This is why I admire Maria Montessori. 

Review: 아빠, 어디가? (Dad, where are we going?)

A Korean TV program 아빠, 어디가?  is recently a extremely popular TV program. Have you ever heard this program? It is very entertaining and moving.

What the program is about family journey that many families, specially a dad and his son or daughter, go to somewhere together. Every week, they go trip to Korean various rural areas. This journey is affective to viewers because viewers always wish to tour for funny life. And the viewers can feel enjoyable and excited by just watching it. As you know, Korean feels that a dad is taciturn and blunt person. And in family, dad and his child keep awkward silence. In order to improve this relationship, this surprising program appears. So I think that it is such a good and thankful program for them. Dads can not only feel love and special feelings but also understand thought of their children by touring with them. They will never forget the wonderful time they had together. This program 아빠 어디가?  is a great family entertainment.

My only worrying is that the children in program might feel difficult to live their life. Many viewers pay attention to them and focus on their real life. And they can feel uncomfortable. The love and attention of this program are fine, but I think that a private life of the children must be protected.

All the same, watch this program and you will feel so fun and expect the happening about next week’ journey.
