Thank you for your reply! I am really interested to see how creative teachers will apply technology or other mediums to engage students interest in more abstract subjects such as math!

You mentioned a valuable point! PhD is losing its original meaning (philosophy as love of wisdom) and turning into some meaningless terms, another paper on the wall! Thank you for your insightful ideas!

very cool! exactly same as what I experienced regarding Harry Potter! I really enjoyed your instructor exciting approach using Harry Potter as a base for further learning!

I totally agree with you! In my Previous post “laptops in classroom yaaaayyy” I exactly mentioned how in higher education we have control and some level of choice regarding what we learn but in K-12 (at least in my country) students are forced to take certain compulsory lessons without having any choice!

Thank you so much for your reply and your perfect explanation of how we can practically give students choice without endangering educational goals.
Comment on Mindful Learning by CorlH
Thank you for sharing the link. I do think that meditation or some form of exercise would help students. Yoga also helps students de-stress. I had a undergraduate course that incorporated these breaks to assist with learning after learning new concepts.

I really enjoyed the approach that you took with this week’s reading. I do think that learning can be enjoyable, but it is dependent on how students are engaged.

Comment on Mind Full …, Or Mindful? by Yan
Sogand, Thank you for your post! I like the title and the figure. I agree with your comment. My mind is easily filled with some assumed “pre-known” knowledge, especially when I started my study in graduate school. The lecturers need to work harder on the active learning for the students who might have the same full mind as me.
