New Education Changed Us
I am 21st century learner and a product of New Education.
It happens during the pandemic that changed our life. It's forced us to a adapt to a new setting, new technology and new form of teaching and learning. The transition to face to face classes to online education is quite challenging and terrifying. I am afraid of changes. I always plan about my future, in then, the pandemic came and I was not able to prepare for it. I had experienced trouble in manipulating different types of technology or google application. But, those experiences helped me to be more efficient and effective as a student. Technology changed me. It changed me how I think and how well I do, not just in school but also in the society.
One of the article that caught my eye in the past lesson, that good video games is good for your soul. So, good video games are good for your soul when you play them with thought, reflection, and engagement with the world around you. They are good, if, as a player, you begin to think and act like a game designer while you play the game, something good games encourage. With this statement, I realized that if you want technology to be useful and not harm you, you should consider the good or benefits that can be obtained from using technology. So, changing is up to you.
Thank you for sharing your personal journey as a 21st-century learner shaped by the pandemic! It's powerful to hear how you navigated the challenges of transitioning to online education and how technology ultimately transformed your approach to learning and your role in society. Your point about the importance of thoughtful engagement with technology, especially the insight from the video game article, is so crucial. It's a great reminder that technology's impact depends on how we choose to use it and the mindset we bring to it. Your experience is a testament to the resilience and adaptability of learners in the face of change!
