HW# 41

How has education has changed in last thirty years?

 


I think education has changed dramatically over the past 30 years. For example, we have more money for textbooks, we have more technology, we can give the students the help that they need, and we can even afford to enroll them in music, and extra tutoring for the students that need the extra help.


There are also new and improved, and more advanced college courses for young adults in college, if their not quite ready, but they are too advanced for the regular classes. these are all reasons of why our education has improved. Also, most schools now a days have more security programs and anti- smoking/ anti-bullying programs. And we have more security cameras in the hallways at school and on the bus. an we also have computers that can do the work for use such as look up information instead of going through all the text books in the world to find one thing

HW# 40

PART B
o dont find school important or interesting at all

PART A
i could not get 5 people that  i could interview so i only did 2 people. i asked both of the people what makes school better an one said the friends that go to the school, the other 1 said meeting new people or maybe meeting a cool teacher. the other questions i asked was do they think if school seen as a sort of food chain like how the student is on the bottom an then the teachers etc. one said that is a good question an that it is true because as a student u always have to listen to somebody an we are never able to speak our mind with the thing on our mind of gettiing in trouble. the other one said that you can not say that for every school because there are some schools that the students are able to speak there mind.

THEN THEY LEFT TO WORK SO I COULDNT ASK ANYBODY ELSE

HW #39

  1. why is school so annoying?
  2. why does school start so early?
  3. why must we do hw to pass?
  4. why is it that your parents always think they know what you going trough in school when it was very different back then?
  5. why is school so stress full




  • school stress you out in life
  • it makes the life with you family(parents) worst 
  • schools are a big day care so that your parents could work so that you can stay busy
  • if school did not worry about grades so much there would be less drop outs
  • if schools care so much about how you feel why would they fail you then when you come in pissed off they wonder why
PART B


if every teacher would pass students then we would not have to hear it from our parents which mean we wont come into school mad the next day deff if you deserve to pass the class. because right now i am pissed off at the fact that i failed 3 classes an 2 classes i actually did work in so i just think i should have gotten at least a 65 but not i got a 55 which means i did not do anything the whole semester so i will be pissed off at these 2 teachers for the last semester of my high school life which i know 1 of them do not even care about me being mad which i really do not care. i just do not care about school much anymore i just want that paper so i can move on with my life, school is not important to me.

how do i think it came to be? i think teachers are made to be jerks period. an parents do not make it better one bit because u could get 90's an they would always want more than that but i am not made at that i can understand they want there kids to do better an push there limits but if they get a 65 do not be mad just be happy they passed. i think teachers are jerks because a lot of them know that the student at least do all the work even if it is not up to the there par the student at least took time out from there life to do "all" the work an for the student to do all that an fail how do you think the student will feel going into the 2nd semester. they would not be happy at all an they would just think about all the work they put  in is worth nothing an would think second about even doing the hw this time.

HW #38

 when i get the link for the video i will post it. the video needs to download.



my group was Ian,Russell, Kareem me an Kareem were strong cool figures back in the 70's showing the nerd(Ian) what was cool in our days

1. What insights about cool does the art integrate? What do you hope people will realize or question from their encounter with your art?

our video shows that the nerd is not cool in school but after he wakes up an noticed that life is not based off being cool he ends up being the cool one while the other people is not. 

2. Describe the process of making the project - how'd you do each step? If it was a group project, what did you contribute?

it was fun we finally got to do a group project that i liked. i like the fact that everybody in our group had different ideas an we all picked a choose the ones that were fun an good. we did like a guess an check type method where we just winged it an seen if it would work an it did. i was an actor an i brought ideas to the group.

3. Does making art seem cool to you? Why or why not?

yea i find making art cool because it can have more than 1 meaning it could possibly show more than the artist thought since the viewer sees more they would notice a lot more.
