2015 Final Blog

I would like to thank the teachers from all the way to room2 to right now Miss Ardelle 2015 and from the day I attended Corinna School, I can’t remember all of the teacher that have taught me. But I’ve had some amazing experiences with my classmates and my teachers from all the classes I’ve been too so far, I’ve had lots of support in corinna school mostly from everyone, I’ve gone from shy to confident in an instant since i’ve been here. This school has definitely changed me in a good way. I’ve been through rough situations but school has helped me achieve the impossible ,To do the right not the wrong ,to make a difference and change. All the great opportunities I’ve took I wouldn't have done if it wasn't for corinna school and the supporters. I’ve been in this school for 5 years so far.

The 21st Century

Something has changed over the years, something very different. I am a 21st century learner, for me I reckon the way we learn and the way our schools have changed over the years is incredibly  different from back in the olden days. If you think about it ,nearly everyone around the world  is using technology, phone’s , Chromebooks, Ipads, computers and so on.

As a 21st century learner I find it much easier to work and collaborate in a 21st century learning Environment. I bravely disagree on   this title “I learn best at a desk” I mean what is this?,1910. Back in the olden days, teachers were really strict , everyone had to learn the same thing, at the same time, in the same classroom, nothing but paper and pencils and by themselves every single day just to get prepared for an unjoyable,  job BORING!!!!!.

But now mostly, everything has changed. We learn, connect, discuss, Question the teacher, take risk in our own learning,mostly because we have technology and because we get to work with others to solve problems.   I mean how lucky are we!

The digital technology today has helped us to access our learning quickly, easily and as they say 24/7 such as :

• Our Google Gmails
• our google drive
• The corinna student portal on google

and well much more

you can tell I’m using the word google that’s because we work on Google chrome which for me and hopefully for is a best tool to work and learn on.

Think of this, working wherever we want, sometimes learning what we want to learn, taking opportunities we haven’t taken before, learning with other classes or class mates like Learning buddies, Is the best way to learn.

 

so here’s a question I want all of you to think about.

What would you rather 21st century learning or back in the olden days?  For me it’s of course working in a 21st century learning environment.  yes I am one of those people who want to follow their passion, and get a good education also to enjoy their job. Working in a 21st century school helps us to achieve this. These days we can learn better, work together to make progress in school and for our environment and for our future.

It's time to forget about the past and look towards our future.
