The Ideal School: My Vision -- Momoka

Not many outdoor education activities take place in Japan. Additionally, students only attend classes assigned by their teachers. So, I didn’t enjoy school very much when I was a high school student. Therefore, I would like to consider how students can enjoy school.

         First of all, I think students need to take outside education activities such as appreciating art, seeing an orchestra concert, and watching sports. It promotes their personal growth and fosters social development to them. Through various recreational activities that involve peer interaction, children learn to trust, respect, and collaborate with each other. In addition, occasional outdoor education is better for concentration and study efficiency than studying in a classroom all the time. However, some people would say that outdoor education requires a lot of time and presents challenges regarding activities during rainy or windy days. I have solutions to these problems. There are some free exhibitions to visit. Also, volunteering doesn’t cost money. These initiatives allow ou
tdoor education without spending money. Moreover, we can go to a museum or a concert even if it is rainy or windy.

         Second, students are supposed to be able to choose they want to study. By taking responsibility for their own decisions, students improve their self-management skills through the selection of their own classes. On the other hand, some people argue that this process can be stressful for students, but I believe that schools can provide support to help students choose suitable classes.

         In conclusion, students can enjoy their school lives in the ways I have introduced. I hope that students can engage in outside education and learn what they want.

    I believe that your idea is very good. Making students make their decision about what classes they are taking is very good practice to having a responsibility.

The Ideal School: My Vision -- Riko

                  Since before, some people consider that academic subjects (math, science, biology, history, geography, etc.) are the most important. In addition to this, these days, the 4Cs (critical thinking, creativity, collaboration, and communication) are regarded as essential. Although it is true that these subjects and perspectives are extremely important for life, I suppose that it is also significant to learn skills and abilities at a school to live independently.                 This kind of school would have high quality of teaching about housework as much as academic school. Students at the school could learn how to cook, grow plants, make and fix things with some equipment and tools such as kitchens, electric drills, etc.). One of the advantages of this style is that the students would not tend to be bored because they can learn about many fields widely. Moreover, these skills are essential to live by oneself. One of the reasons of this is that doing things by oneself c

I’m Jimmy from Taiwan. I came to New Zealand to learn English, experience different lifestyles, and try working abroad using my working holiday visa. Now I am in homestay in Green Island with the Morris family. This is my second time in New Zealand. Last time in Dunedin I just passed through this city, but now I have joined the general English course at the University of Otago. By learning in a foreign university environment, I want to improve my English level to increase the chances of future employment. By the way, It also means that I could have more time to appreciate the beauty and culture of Dunedin. So far I found there are a lot of attractive Scottish style architectures and nature sceneries, and I think the weather in Dunedin is very changable. I have already finished my Masters Degree in food science and biotechnology. My favorite subject was food chemistry, because I could understand the principles of how food changes. I like to play badminton, tennis, go mountain climbi
