Reflection on my project=)
How does learning really happen?, Learning dosnt only happen in school?.learning has to be real for me. what bi mean about beign real is that i can acually be intrested in it or do something i feel i can relax .One example i think was useless in grade school ,middle school,and high school."TAKS" was so un real to me, i mean itwas something i thought was so boring not intresting . i didnt show me anything about writing or reading. When i have to learn something unreal to me,i do feel overwhelmed and boring because its something that i think in the long run is useless.The reason why i say its usless because i mention the TAKS before i mean this test has been in my education for a long time but has it help in anything no beacuse i mean if it would of helped i would be an expert in taking test. and thats not what happen i mean i took the ACT and didnt meet the minumum requierment just by one point.
The persons that showed me about reading and writing were my parents and other people. The first real thing i can remeber is when i was 5 my dad thought me how to horse back ride i remeber him saying pay attention to the way the heart beat of the horse,it will tell tell you how the horse feel??
maybe for me what learned is because i can actually relate to it.i love to write poetry because its what i feel and understand more clearly,many teachers if they ever get to read this they will disagree with me ,or maybe some will agree with me,because in oreder for people to understand eachother they must go to the next level.like actually get to know eachother.
Inernet to me seems really really real i mean everything rite now is revovling around the inernet .jobs ,school work,social network.. my Favroite Face book=) its all real to me beacuse its people my age people that i can relate and just talk nosense and not get judge. What i learn from the inernet is universal,beacuse i mean you learn how to become social and its showing us how to prepare for the future.What am going to do for my audience to understand my theory is am goin to do a video of piks that have thougt me through life and take piks of my friends that have showed them how to learn outside of school.so i am goin to put a universal song that has to do with my piks and other funn stuff=) .The expirence in my life have taught me how to surivive in this harsh society. I mean alot of teachers have made a big impact in my life because they actually cared for their students they actually try to relate their chilhood with ours. That shows me that the real world can be a big teacher to us and everyone who know and realize that it actually works and its helpfull.
My thing is actually thaught me a lill more about how learning happens??
i mean books for me have knowledge in it,but dosent mean that i actually understand and learn what the book gives i mean most people just dont like reading at all or learning new stuff. i wonder if they even know that learning happens in such simple stuff like talking to new people,your learning how to be social.Even my dad situation that his in jail i learned how to write and read in spanish cause that was the only way i can communicate with him.i mean its a sad situation but i actually learned something not in school.ive learned how to be strong by myself and the help of my mommy=).
the connection between my theory and my thing is that i im actually learning every step i do to make it. i mean im doing like a movie maker or maybe a dvd type thing not sure yet but idea keeps growing every time i add more to my thing. i mean im actually expirencing my theory thats pertty weird but i am ,and thats how i can prove my theory can be related to everyone i mean were like babys in this world cause every step we take is something new that we dont only learn in school. The Real world is like a book were we can try stuff and create and we chosse what to do.. we learn from our mistakes we do,so the second time we might do it again or maybe actually learn from it. Even now that im writing my essay i can agree with y theory and my thing beacuse the connection can be related to.I have nothing else to say beacuse i think i made connection or explanation that learning dosent only happen in school.Hopefully my Thing can prove my theory =).... OH one last thing the music in my video has meaning to me. I can say music plays a big role in my life =)i learn by hearing music ,many people express themselves by writing and relating to it. its just like poetry..

Proposal?.
How does learning really happen??
Learning to me needs to be about reality.
Task wasn't real for it had no meaning...
Learning dosent only happen in school.

My connections I found were.. Internet ,cooking, horseback riding,friendship, poetry the conectinons on this are that there thing that are real to me .that i can actually relate to my "real" world.. school to me is not that real because i learn stuff im not that intrested in but eventually what i have learned i will get to use in my "real" world..

My thing that im creating is in my laptop ..im using paint to do my genogram=) pertty wierd how i did it but oh well..my theory is learnig not only in school?? im doing it mainly for me to understand my own of learning and how it happens...
