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

Wim Hof is known as Iceman and is a Dutch. He is very much famous in the breathing technique he explains and how to fight against cold and diseases. I wanted to write one of my posts about him so that my class mates become familiar and try to use his methods. The logo of Wim to to become happy and healthy. He explains a procedure of breathing which include inhaling from the nose and exhaling from the mouth for approximately 30 times, then catching your breath as long as possible and repeating the steps for 3 times. This procedure will help in more energy, reduction of stress level, and increase in immunity against any pathogen. These benefits are because of increase in the level of oxygen entering. When the breathing is done in this way, then next step is the cold therapy, where cold will become your warm friend and cold will help burn yellow fat faster and thus accelerate in the breaking down of the brown fat from the adipose tissues into yellow and burning 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

          According to Swami, the child has all the spiritual and material knowledge but it is covered by curtain so the aim of education should be concerned to achieve fullness of perfection.   Education should tear the veil so that the knowledge will shine. Also another aim of education according to Swami is development of the mental and physical state in the child. He believed that if a child has grown well, he will be the a great citizen and a crucial member in the society, also by this way will be able to develop his own world instead of depending on others and becoming parasite on them. He added that the greatness of citizens can be achieved through moral and spiritual development which education should foster. He believed when the education system turns to develop the mental, physical, spiritual and moral state of the child, this will eventually lead to purity of thought, words and deeds. He had the famous say “Arise, awake and stop not till the goal is achieved”, meaning th

                                     Pestalozzi influenced the system of education in many ways.

His theory contributed three main changes in the education system. First, he inspired new movements the reform of philanthropic educational institutions.

Nowadays, the computer games are the most spread games in the whole world and all aged children are sitting in front of the TV with that control in their hands and without knowing that control is controlling their brains and making them think like robots. We as teachers and mothers at the same time should do our best to stop our children and students playing these video games and instead give our time to them and make them play educational games that will enhance their memory, activate their thinking ability, develop hand-eye coordination...

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.
