In this times education is different from before, we have more technology more sources that we can research now, let’s say is easier than before, when I started going to school we didn’t use the computer much, I remember that if you need to find a meaning of a world you go to a dictionary that is separate by letters and was easy to find it, now you use your cellphone, computer or tablet and search the meaning there, another example is when you had to a do a research of a topic or do a homework your helper was a big book that you have to read and find there the answers there and now once again we have the technology that you just type the sentences and there are a lot of pages with the answers and the explanation also the technology helps you …show more content…
Why do I have to take that class? What do I need math in school and for my future if I want to be a psychologist and in this carrier they don’t need math? Always hate it, never doing bad in math but always hate it, can’t understand numbers, equations, formulas, etc. till one day I sat trying to focus in that course (in this class doesn’t worked my study strategy) trying to think what I was doing bad, why in this course my strategy doesn’t work and what I need to do to start imaging numbers as characters and in that way understand a little bit, hours passed till one minute boom something come to my head, why not trying to start playing with the numbers try to solve and equation in a way that I get the right answer but if the strategy of the teacher doesn’t work, I get one in my own but always getting the same answer as the professor. Since that day my life change, simplify my life in math and now I like it, I can do number without a calculator, of course not all of them but comparing as before it was a big progress, also I can resolve problems, solve equation with knowledge and not guessing what I am doing, another thing that help me a little bit when I didn’t get the same answer is asking questions to the teachers, am a shiny person and I didn’t like to …show more content…
We were not born knowing how to talk, eat, walk, and write, our parents teach us how to do it, also teach us the virtues in this life, our parents don’t repeat constantly the same words to kept the virtues or the teachings, they explain to us in a way that we kept it in our minds forever, education should be the same, interpret what the teacher says in a way that we kept it
Teaching math can be a grueling task for many, but not for a certain high school math teacher. Megan Patterson, a beloved high school teacher, was born in 1990 right here in Illinois and is currently working at a very small high school that only consist of around 250 students. This high school is a private school and is also a Christian school, which is why it is named Westminster Christian high school. This is her story of how she became a great high school math teacher.
Education plays a key role in the development of one’s character and future achievements. The importance of education has elevated in numerous ways over time. The higher an education a person receives is expected to give an individual a better occupation and therefore result in more earned money by that individual. Human desires have led to the great want to achieve the best education in order to ensure that more then just the basic needs and wants are met by that individual, whether it is for themselves or for those that are dependent upon them. Hence the best education one can receive will contribute to the fulfillment of their desires and wants. In recent years the internet has played quite a major part in education. The internet has become almost more significant in the classroom then a piece of paper and a pencil, to a class. It has become more then just a resourceful tool for finding information it has become a means of a must have item. Such dependence is very detrimental to the educational process for although the internet seems to be everywhere, there are still many people, willing to learn, who lack such a resource.
I believe that being positive is one of the most important things when it comes to any class, but mostly math. Math is a subject that requires a high amount of paying attention and listening, so having a positive outlook towards the class is important towards success. I sometimes get down on myself after I underachieve in a test and I start saying that I can’t succeed in the class or that I’m simply just not good at math, but what I should do is actually get motivated and try to do better on the next test or assignment. I also need to realize that I am now more mature than I was in High School and I should attempt to study as much as possible in order to assure myself a good grade in the class. Giving the course a fair chance and just being
School is useless! Why do we have to stay in crowded room with weird people, being taught weird stuff?

All students has the ambitions to do well and get job and be prosperous. However most of the time that wouldn 't happen because students would be half hearted into the their work and they would not believe the fact that the subjects like math, reading, science and ect. would come back to bite them at their rear. shockingly enough, a lot of the things accomplished by man is
It is a constant truth that technology is growing rapidly and it is opening up many opportunities for students as well as teachers. Through the use of the internet information that would take scholars months to acquire out and interpret can be found in less than a minute though a Google search and not only is the information their, but in many cases the information that you wanted is shown in bolded so it can even be found quicker.
Math is a requirement in almost all schools. People learn math from the time they start school to the time they finish college. Math gets tougher and tougher as they pass through the years. It goes from 2+2= 4 when they are in kindergarten/1st grade to f(x)= 4x+8y>xy when they are in college. It is important because math can be used in the world in many ways from architecture to little things like the configuration of softball scores.
Back when my parents were in school they were required to do their reports with the help of the good old encyclopedia. This required numerous trips to the local library and heavy book bags. At that time computers didn’t have the benefit of the worldwide web. As time has gone by, technology has advanced numerously. The world is growing and we must grow and adapt to it.
This age is dedicated to more of learning age. It is said that even the teachers are the learner. This is the age of knowledge gradually shifted towards the age of communication.

Firstly, children that are born in the twentieth century have the chance to do their schoolwork with help from the internet. My parents for example did not had the chance to surf on the internet when they were in school. All the information they had to gather for their projects were just the ones they had read from a book or by doing lots of interviews face to face with people. The Y generation can use the internet such Google for research and even You Tube to look at a documentary for their biology class. Most importantly, all the things we do not know easily can be searched on the unlimited network. When you type in for what you are looking fo...
Devlin believes that mathematics has four faces 1) Mathematics is a way to improve thinking as problem solving. 2) Mathematics is a way of knowing. 3) Mathematics is a way to improve creative medium. 4) Mathematics is applications. (Mann, 2005). Because mathematics has very important role in our life, teaching math in basic education is as important as any other subjects. Students should study math to help them how to solve problems and meet the practical needs such as collect, count, and process the data. Mathematics, moreover, is required students to be capable of following and understanding the future. It also helps students to be able to think creativity, logically, and critically (Happy & Listyani, 2011,
