A new way to study

I found that I actually learn a lot better when I'm not reading. Yes i really mean it I understand better thru online lectures. It's really awesome I find the topic I have to learn online usually you tube. I play the video till I get it and quiz myself on what I know it's pretty awesome.Thru learning about the flipped classroom, I spend less time studying cause all i would be doing is reading it over, and over again, which is never fun especially if I don't remember what I read. Studying is a little more fun now, once I start one video I get curious of other topics relating to it. I come to class better prepared, and ready for questions.

Using the flipped method with other classes

I hate science, I don't get it ,and feel as if it's a different language. But when I would look at video blogs from other teachers online for anatomy I found that it's really not as difficult. I played the video about muscles and tissues till i basically know it word for word and scored a high grade on my previous exam. I found that I don't have to wait till the professor flips the class, I can do so my self , and I love it. It's a great feeling knowing what the professor is speaking of in class. Thank Dr.Hamon I guess I'm not so stupid after all.

Monster In Law

How does one deal with annoying In laws. My boyfriend's mom hates everything I do when it comes to caring for her son. She thinks my cooking has to much spice, my ironing sucks, and I cant mop like she can. She would call me just to let me know what she cooked, and how everyone loves it. Just the other day she needed a ride to the mall, and her other daughter in law refused to take her, and for the first time I heard this woman say something nice about me to her son, on how if it was me she wouldn't have missed the sale mind you I was home. She wont stop calling me now, my boyfriend thinks this is funny...how do I deal with this Help?

NEW JOB

Let me start off my Thinking God, he is able. Today was the first day at my new job, this place is beautiful. It's called the Breakers Hotel. I wanted to leave Hospitality all together but having my orientation I fell in love. The insurance that they provide is the best plus they pay 50 percent of your premium. I've worked in Hotels before but never one like this.There is a ballroom that has a a ceiling of gold. A carpet that moves in every direction you move. Plus George Lopez the comedian walked past my orientation group. I work in the food and beverage department and I learned if I ever need more hours I can pick up any shift from their many restaurants. I love this job!

My new Stepmom

Hi, fellow classmates I got a really funny phone call the other day from my mom telling me that my father is now a married man. I was proud of him finally I thought my Father remarried. Though I never knew he was dating someone I was still happy for him. While listening to my mother talk I heard her say the young lady's age. Get ready for it I'm 24 years old the girl is three years older than me. My father is 55. I hope I didn't ruin your lunch like my mother did mine. That's all folks.

ALL SMILES

With all that is going on, Being laid off due to my job having 12 million renovations, someone stealing my identity,my hospital scare, and falling behind in EVERY class. I knew this was part of life, tough obstacles are sure to come but I will cross over. I refused for depression to hit me, and I know I'm not weak I'm prepared for more upcoming battles. I said to my self Okay I got this.Friday the Breakers called me and wanted me to start this upcoming Wednesday. Not only that but my pay is alot higher than it was at the country club I worked at. $14.50 plus service charge and tips versus $15.00 flat. I'm very grateful, and I cant wait to start so I can save up. I've learned one must save. You don't know what life is going to throw at you be prepared.

Catching up with Everything

Though I missed a week and a half of school. I'm Totally behind in every class it's very overwhelming knowing I don't have much time left but I'm really trying thank God for Yennifer and a few other classmates who are sharing their time with me so that I can catch up. As I said in my previous post always keep your Faith. God bless Everyone

Having, and keeping your Faith

Two weeks ago while at home I get a sharp pain in my right pelvic region. The type of pain where I couldn't even stand up. Phone wasn't in arms reach, all I could do was just lay there praying it would go a way. No one was home, I started to panic when i felt liquid, it was blood. Again I kept praying, even as my head continued to feel dizzy I looked to God. I felt like passing out, wondering what is going on. Right when everything in my sight started to fade away. I hear my door open,right then I continued to pray harder.I didn't know who was in my house, and my body couldn't move. I knew God was looking over me so I said to myself Stamene have faith. My cousin forgot her bag at my house and came to pick it up since she has an extra key, an extra key I didn't even know she had. She called the ambulance, and I was rushed to the ER. Come to find out I have an ovarian cyst, and polyps. I'm thankful for finding out but my body miscarried my baby I was 8 weeks. Though I lost my child, I have faith knowing God has a reason for everything.

Working the overnight shift

I thought when I signed up to work front desk it was going to be an easy job. Overnight sure no problem, how hard can it be? Think again after leaving this job in the morning I feel like a zombie. It affects everything I do that day. I cant think straight, feel pain, or see clearly.When everyone is getting up thats when I'm going to bed "oh" the irony. All jokes aside Working overnight shifts take REAL soliders, it truley suck...good morning class!

Stolen Identity

I got a call from unemployment today asking for prove that I've been applying for jobs. Well the crazy thing about this is I'm currently employed have been for years, also I never applied for unemployment. Some one had been using my identity for unemployment checks, credit cards,and etc since January of this year.... The moral of my story is GET LIFE LOCK. Protect yourself these identity criminals are real and out there.Oh and to end this my credit score is now 140! good day my fellow classmates I'm going to jump off a cliff now.

Living with my Boyfriend Help

So my boyfriend of three years really wants to buy a house in Boca Raton. The problem for me is that I've never lived with my partner before Im really nervous about this idea. First off my family are super catholic so I know where they are going to go with this. Second my guy friend scared the heck out of me when he told me "say bye bye to you ever getting married". And third Im just plain weird there are a few things I would really hate for him to find out about me,For example I sleep walk.Please help any advice would do!

Michael horn handles his articles thesis by stating facts about charter school not flipping their classrooms, nor low income inner city schools. Being that the flipped classroom is the new phenomenon. but it seems as if only upper- income suburban schools have the approval of the media. He lets the readers know also that if students in low income schools dont have accessto a computer, or internet access. flipping the classroom will be a non-starter in those schools.

When it came to English compostion I always wondered why I couldnt understand exactly what the lecture was about. Sometimes I would while liostening to a lecture drift off into outerspace,and hate myslef later for not paying attention. Its not that I didnt want to I just basically disliked lecture. with the flipped method I can go over the lecture as many times possible until Im positive I understand less of a headache for my professor with all my questions that I'm sure he answered thru lecture.

If the students of my graduating high school class of 2008 Palm Beach Gardens High School had the chance to be introduced to the method of the flipped classroom room I know for a fact our school would have a higher number of students graduating. With this method one cannot go wrong. I feel as if the flipped classroom method would be the ONLY method that would work in urban schools, where students have a hard time understanding teachers.

The flipped classroom technique helps me better understand what is being asked of me. having more time to go over anything I dont understand as many times as I have to works for me. I cant think of anyway this technique doesn't work.

Writing Doc 1 I've learned how important it is to build an online image, especially while in college. Giving future employers some insight about you. Also I've learned how important blogging has on one's online image. By blogging you're ideas, and views you have to be careful of what you put online it can either help you , or break you in the job market.

              Yesterday I started something that would benefit me in the long run I started going to the gym. But this time I made sure to get a personal trainer. Since last year I gained fifty pounds, and lots of health issues. I plan on reducing the booty, the doctor visits, and hospital bills by just a simple gym membership. So far I hate it, but in the long run I'll love the results. And my trip to Barbados this coming August didnt have any influence on my decision at all....cough ,cough.

I've learned while working with my group on Doc1 with my group that if there are different views on how the paper should be written, or if we don't understand one another completely, than our communication is limited. Limited communcation doesn't work in writing with a group. Understanding each other, working together equals success in a group.

           When given a certain subject to write about or either comment on. It's either I dont know much about it, or anything at all. Through writing about that certain topic I've became an expert, with built up confidence when asked about the topic. When writing you research what you dont know, then more information comes along, then just like that you have learned through writing, and now you have a world class search paper....Speaking from experience.

Usually the thought of working with others ina group project would make me cringe. Not that I'm anti-social or anything in that nature. Through certain life experiences I figured I could do a better job, and get it done alot faster...ALONE. Working on my Doc1 assignment with my current group shifted my view on group writing. I've learned creative ways of communicating through writing,better ways of planning, and writing. For the most part I would say I'm a little bit more open on group projects.

I personally feel keeping my online image a little conservative will help me in the long run.When it comes to jobs, and people in general would want to know a little more about you. I like the feeling that Iam keeping folks on their toes guessing more about me. keeping my image as clean as possible is a must...well for me it is.
