Pandemics of the past - Koko

  When I listened to 3 videos, every videos gave me shock and made me surprised.

 The most dreadful happening I think is the pandemic of the plague 101. I understood fear about an infectious disease because modern people include me explained pandemic like COVID-19. I thought that it is hard to provide plague transmitted from rats to humans by insects. And also, I was shocked if one of people infected heavy source of infection, half of people might passed away. It's scary to think that history has been changed by this infection. 

 To be honest, I think the solution of spread pandemic is thoroughly wash your hands and gargle. It is important things even though this action is small. In addition, from people undergo it in the past, modern people need education to not repeat same things. 

 Finally, about things after COVID-19. While this pandemic, our life changed dramatically. But it is only negative things. I think technology in the world developed by COVID-19. For instance, remote meeting and new drug development, and so on.

    I agree that washing hands and gargling is one of the solutions. Since I came to New Zealand, I don't gargle anymore, so I need to be careful.

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
