I learned that society is changing, and changing fast. The world is becoming "flat" and the world is starting to become run by individuals instead of by industries\companies. Also people are become more connected, due to tecnology\internet etc., and 3rd world countries are starting to develop and catch on to it too. Another thing I learned was that competition in the world has changed, it used to be nation vs. nation.
To a certain degree it still is of course, but the world is quickly forming the individual\imagination competition;and anything that can be done will be done. If you don't do it, the next person will. That's the competition of today's society. I do agree that it seems like the 21st century will belong to China, just as the 20th belonged to America;but you never know.
Im pretty pumped for the flat classroom project, because in this project we can truly express ourselves and also test ourselves and see what kind of potential we have. Im also excited to communicate with other students and connect with them, and also to see other people's points of view. Because if you see things from other people's point of view you can create more of a broad view on the world. Which would potentially change the way you think and also change you as a person.
We learned some of the same stuf!
ReplyDeleteElmar, I love your enthusiasm for this project! I think that you are right - you will be tested and it will be a way to showcase your abilities. I hope that you work to create valuable comments that add to discussion and keep conversations going. This will help you connect with your teammates during this project.
ReplyDeleteI definitely agree with you all the way with the last paragraph! This is really going to put us to the test to see what we can do and to communicate and take actions on our own project.
