Just another WordPress.com site. A Shot of Education. Day dream, get drunk, and strip off… (AKA. My Top 10 Revision Tips…) →. Within the context of Psychobiology (and sleep in particular), I stumbled across some really interesting articles. One of these was broadcasted by the BBC in 2010.

Science of Education Blog. Just another WordPress.com site. A Different Type of Video Game. On January 27, 2012. I’ve been playing video games for pretty much my whole life. Ever since the Sega Mega Drive up to the Playstation 3 it’s been my main hobby. If you asked me what I had learned from video games, I would probably list off a bunch of boring facts and statistics about games, but apparently they’ve taught me a lot more than that.

Science of Education Blog. Just another WordPress.com site. On March 16, 2012. I’m a big fan of videogames; right now, I’m thinking about videogames. When I’ve done with this blog, guess where I’ll be going. My mum would always say that videogames are a waste of time, that I should go out and socialise with other children because you won’t learn anything from a videogame. Can you see where this is going? And it also shows how general brainwave activity can also be improved. These are just surface scratch...

Science of Education Blog. Just another WordPress.com site. On April 20, 2012. Reflective like a mirror? Because it’s a reflective blog? Before this module, I didn’t even consider there was anything wrong with education today. To me, sitting there, taking notes was just the norm and that’s what worked. I mean, why would they teach you like that if there were more effective ways. Well guess what? They teach us like that even though there are more effective ways. So there’s my reflection; this module...

Looking back, again. I have spent so much more time researching education and the issues that are prevalent and it has encouraged me to think outside the box and continue looking in my own time outside of blogging and commenting. Like this blog, the module made me reflect on my own education and what I knew of others educational experience and really made me look at different into topics from different angles. I feel like a woman (week 9). In 2011, the BBC. Does gender matter when it comes to teaching?

Just another WordPress.com site. Reflective blog time already! This module has really opened my eyes to the benefits, but more importantly, the issues that the UK has within its education system, of which there are LOTS. And for those of you who have read some of my previous blogs, you may have noticed how regularly I refer back to the example of Finland for good education. As a recap, I just wanted to list some points that have helped to make Finland’s Education outstanding, which could be easily copied;.

April 20, 2012 · 9:13 pm. This module was one of the most memorable I have taken part in throughout university. It was a unique method of learning and one that I found highly effective. Another fantastic part of this module was listening to what others found. Admittedly even with popps, I was initially apprehensive about the presentation aspect but as they say, practice makes perfect! Presentation skills are fantastic skills to have and this module was great in developing these. In summary this was a fan...
