My Ideal School -- Mayuko Nakamura

 My Ideal School

I would like to describe the details of my ideal school. Firstly, I need a place near nature that students can go outside in break times or lunch times freely. If there aren’t digital devices in this school, they cannot learn how to use or media literacy when they grow up so I would like to create classes which have both aspects nature and technology. I also need advisors and counselors.

 

In my school, I want students to think outside the box. They will need skills to create ideas which will be useful for our environment or our future. Therefore, I will not adopt methods of using a curriculum or teachers. Because of this, students can take classes what they want to learn or with subjects which they are interested in. If there were in school, students would behave typically and conventionally. I believe that people who can think outside the box will be needed to save our future so I will not use any a curriculum or teachers.

 

However, there is a problem to solve. Students will have to think about a lot of things such as about nature, technology and their curriculums so they might be tired or confused. To solve this problem, I found an idea. I will have some counselors in my school so when students become tired or confused, they can talk to counselors. Then, they can get some advice.

 

There are other problems to think about, but I suppose my ideal school will work affectively to improve children’s creativity.

    Interesting post, Mayuko, you have gone with the idea of student-centered education where the teacher sits alongside the student and facilitates and advises rather than stands above them and directs. I can imagine your counsellors offering encouragement in order to assist the students to 'think outside the box.'

    I agree that you will not adopt methods of using a curriculum or teachers. Children will learn more enthusiastically, and talking to counselors is important, too.

    Educating children's creativity is not easy, but I think your strategy must work effectively.

    I tend to think conventionally and have conservative tastes so I need to go to your ideal school to get rid of it!

About Me -- Yugo Konno

Image
  My name is Yugo Konno.  I am from Tokyo and 20 years old now. I am living  with the White family in St. Clair. My impression of Dunedin is that there are many spectacular sceneries and kind people. My favorite subject in high school was world history. I took this course to improve my writing and listening English skills. I like cycling because it makes me so excited. What I dislike is having a part-time job because it’s so boring. My only one advantage is that once I start something, I never stop in the middle. One of my disadvantages is that when I am engaged in something, I am often unable to see anything else around me.

       Hello. My name is Usa Yamagami . Please call me Usa. I am 20 years old now. I live in Belleknowes , Dunedin with Barbara and Kelvin, and their son, Phoenix. As soon as I arrived, I thought it was very cold! And I envy New Zealanders because they have a lot of lands. I came from Osaka, Japan, and it is cramped with a lot of buildings. In fact, when I was in high school, Japanese was my favorite of all subjects. Because I like Japanese novels and comics. However, I wanted to try to read Japanese manga in English, so I decided to study English hard. My hobby is listening to music, watching a movie, reading books, and talking to people. Lately, I have been into ''Murder Mystery''. I have made many friends on Twitter who share the same interests. If you don't know about it, please check it out. I don’t like cooking and cleaning, so I think I can’t live alone! 😂   My good point is that I have self-paced, and I think my bad point is also self-paced. Finally, I ...

About me -- Shiho Matsuura

  Hello, class! I’m Shiho and from Japan. Also, I’m 19 years old and now live in Kaikorai with Hilary who is my host mother. I have impressed a nature, a view from my home and a wood stove. I like Dunedin because there’s no high buildings and Dunedin is a beautiful streetscape. Sometimes, I miss Japan and soaking in the bathwater. My favorite subject was Japanese because I like classic so in Japanese classes I could read Japanese classic literature. I chose this course because I want to improve my English enough to discuss difficult problems. Also, my hobby is dance and I love music. For example, I often listen to rhythm and blue and also my host mother likes music so we sometimes listen it together. I’m good at finding nice teas so If anyone want to know delicious teas, let me know! On the other hand, I’m hopeless at waking up early morning so 1 st class that start 9 am is a little hard for me. In conclusion, my goal is improving my English and become a person who understand ...
