Entry 4: My Study Habits and Learning Style



One of my habits in learning is to write down assignments. Then I can easily repeat it at home. I think it is a good study habit, because we can forget something while sitting on lessons. If we talk about my learning style it is Kinesthetic. For me easier to remember lessons if there are physical activities in the class. People who have kinesthetic learning style can do 2 or more things in 1 time. I am not an exception, while I am doing my homework I have to listen to music, watch the movie and etc. Because otherwise I get bored. The same thing in the university. I get bored when there are no other activities besides writing during a lesson.

Entry 3: The Language of Study


When I studied on 3rd year in lyceum. We had very strict deadlines. We studied hard in order to receive good assessment. We (students) asked each other to review our course work. Because reviewing helped us to find out mistakes. We had to find bibliography, pictures, information and retell it. We wrote a lot of essays, took notes during our study. It was rather hard to get good mark. But some of students intended to finish lyceum with red diploma. And here is also the same think with deadlines. If we didn’t bring our paragraphs on time Our Teacher would subtract some points. That’s why we need not late with our home assignment if we don’t want to lose points.

Entry 2: Debate on Mouse vs. Touch Screen




We started our first debate with discussing what is better, mouse or touch screen. We were divided into 2 groups. Computers incorporate various pieces of equipment that allow the user to interact with the software/operating system. I was for touch screen. Our group tried to prove that touch screen is better than mouse. Both groups did best. I personally think that touch screen is more comfortable to use while you are not doing intensive work. But of course mouse has obvious advantages. For example it is rather difficult to use touch screen for games. I am some how solider with people who say that all new is better than old. In conclusion I want to say that every person prefers which device they want to use.
