Reading vs watching the movie

Since I was a child I adored reading books, I used to read Armenian historical books and afterward I started reading English novels and the author that I become astonished with her words is Daniel Steel. She is an author of creativity and great imagination. I personally believe that reading and verbalizing my thought has helped me a lot in my education and in my career. Watching the movie of that particular book doesn't mean a lot to me, since I feel, the movie is so much shortened and lacks the important details that I have imagined and have flown with them in my dreams.
I myself encourage every person to read as many books as possible rather than watching the movie to have creative mind and strong analysis.

    You`re Right! I strongly agree that reading is much more beneficial than watching the movie. firstly, by reading you acquire new vocabulary words that help you build a rich schema. Also, when being immersed in the world of literature, you start to think more about the events and imagine what is going to happen next. This in return enhances creativity and critical thinking.
    At last, most of the movies don`t represent all the events in the novel or the story. Some events are trimmed out.

Introduction to Neo Skinnerian Model and when to use it

  Introduction to Neo Skinnerian Model It is a module of discipline that is concerned with shaping desired behavior. This model is related to Skinner’s new ideas that were taken from him by other writers and used by them to shape students’ behavior in class, so it was not proposed by him.   (Andrius, 2013) It is about behavior modification that teachers need to have in their classes with students in order to have good classroom management especially for young teacher. This model states that “Behavior is conditioned by its consequences. Behavior is strengthened if followed immediately by reinforcement and it is weakened if it is not reinforced.”   (Allen, 1996) There are 3 steps before adapting this model. First, the teacher should do an analysis to determine concerns and decide what the desired behavior should be. Second, the teacher should develop a plan and connect the desired behaviors she/he wishes to accomplish, with the reinforcements and the consequences needed t

Armenia: My Hometown

I'm a Lebanese Armenian citizen. I have born and lived in Lebanon for 26 years and visited my hometown only once and going to visit it soon once more. I want to encourage you to go and see this heaven on earth. A pure land who has fought and lost a lot. It is located on the West Asia and has boarders with Georgia, Turkey, Iran and Azerbaijan. It is the first country who turned christian on 301 AC. The unique alphabet of Armenians were created by Mesrob Mashdots in 405 AC. During WWI, Armenians were subjected to genocide by the Ottoman Empire which lead to their distribution all around the world and that is why wherever you go in the world you'll surly find an Armenian. From 1922 til 1900 Armenia was under the effect of Soviet Union and got independent in 1991. Armenia has total area of  29,743km 2

East Vs West Philosphoes

These two philosophies differ in three principles: individualism vs. collectivism, fragmentary and holistic, and conflict and harmony. First, individualism is highly desired in the West. I think this is ironic because although people may superficially praise individualism, what they really want is conformity. In a philosophical context, Western schools emphasize the individual experience as being independent from the universe and society. Just as the Western idea of individualism can get out of hand; the idea of collectivism has been damaging in the history of the East. Example, Tyrannical communist leaders have devastated people from North Korea to Cambodia. Another example is that Confucianism and Taoism, while they do share some similarities, are actually different. Confucianism is more political and ethical, and it stresses duty to others, tradition, and ceremony. On the other hand, Taoism is more metaphysical and epistemological, and is similar to Western philosophies since st
