Task 2:
What do you think of this kindergarten? Do you agree with the speaker? State your opinion and provide reasons for your stand.

On my opinion, this kindergarden provided a really good environment to the children, I am agree with the speaker. First, the special design of the kindergarden break down the existing concept of "kindergarden", it made kindergarden not just a place for children to have academic lessons but also a place for kids to tap their hidden potentials and learn how to live in the world. In the video, the children are not under full control of the teachers while they are playing, they are facing the potential threat and going to bear the consequences due to their actions. Children learnt to avoid danger through these little injury and become vigilant. Beside that, children learn to socialise in a such non-boundary environment, they are going to be more extraversion through this, children who with hidden mental problem may get the chance to overcome their trouble through communications with others in school life. Then, the children learnt the importance of cooperation. Due to their short height, they have to help each other while climbing up or down the spiral stairway and this build the spirit of teamwork in children, strengthen the relationship between children. All of these contribute to the birth of a world of harmony in human relationship.]]> 2018-04-25 13:38:11 UTC https://padlet.com/aimi_ed_mmumlk/T2_Online_Task_3/wish/255223904 Chan Ting Chang (1171100524) chantingchang https://padlet.com/aimi_ed_mmumlk/T2_Online_Task_3/wish/255329437 Task 1:

A claim is a statement that can be argued and proven with evidence. It is also not an obvious statement and personal opinion.

b) What are the criteria of good claims?
A good claim is specific. It must not be an opinion and it must be arguable and provable by evidence


Task 2:
I think the design of the kindergarten is perfectly suit for kids. I do agree with the speaker. In my opinion, this kindergarten knows the nature of a kid very well.For example they know that children will get nervous if the children are put in a quiet box so they do not build any boundaries between classrooms.Besides, there is a annex building right next to the kindergarten that provides small dosage of danger as the ceiling is low. This enables children to learn how to help each other that hardly learn in society nowadays.Moreover, the oval-shape kindergarten enables children to run all over because the principal knows that children are belong to outside. Also, when they fall down, they learn how to live in this world. ]]> 2018-04-25 16:40:48 UTC https://padlet.com/aimi_ed_mmumlk/T2_Online_Task_3/wish/255329437 Brendan Yu Soon 1171100342 968lCO https://padlet.com/aimi_ed_mmumlk/T2_Online_Task_3/wish/255478447 Task 1:

-Claim is not a statement which most intellectual life form know.
-Claim is not an opinion nor unworkable solution.

b)
A good claim is specific and arguable while supported with evidence.

Task 2:
The kindergarten is made of 3 concept, remove the barrier of outside and inside, let the children learn on their self and help each other, and a free space for the children. I agreed with the speaker about these 3 point. For the first concept, I am not familiar with autism and the 'sound' but I think it does working since there is no problematic symptom with the children. But there is no border line between the classes is an agreeable point, remove potential possibility of discrimination always help with easier management and improvement of the conscious of children. Next, children learning and helping each other on their own is a very important aspect for the current japan. In the recent years, young Japanese mostly care about their own life and ignore most thing that is not related with their current life. A change of conscious for the next generation of Japanese is an important task for the japan government too. The concept of free space for the children is also producing good results. Unlike the average children nowadays, the children in this kindergarten have good athletic abilities. Lastly, i agreed with architecture is able to change the life of human.

seriously the japan government should do something (not like conscripting student and women into firefighter)

TASK 2
I agree with the speaker that this a very good kindergarten. This kindergarten was built in 2007 and the founder of this kindergarten build to be a circle. The reason why the founder of this kindergarten to be a circle because it is more safe and special. The circle is actually protecting the children 360 degree so that the kindergarten teacher will not be so stress. The children of this kindergarten has the freedom to wonder around when they don’t want to be in the classroom. The kindergarten’s teacher all are very open minded to leave the children alone because they know that the child will come back eventually. Furthermore, this kindergarten helps children to learn some very important social skill such as working together, responsibility, communication skill, self-confidence and so on. These social skills help children by building their own personality and their character well. This is why I think this kindergarten is very good.

~ I think the kindergarden have a good design. The kindergarden designed in 2007 and they made kindergarden to be a big circle. I agree with the speaker. In my opinions, the circle kindergardenis good for kids. This is because it is more safe and no dangerous for kids. The kindergarden knows the kids, he knows children will get nervous when we put children in a quiet box. So, this is not problem for them because the kindergarden is no boundary. Moreover, the kindergarden will let the children go and no need to worry about the children because it is a circle so the children will come back. The kindergarden thinks the concept of the kids leave and come back is a natural process. Then, they think that children are supposed to be outside. The children can learn some social skills. For examples, the children need small dosage of danger and learn to help each others. This is a society and kind of opportunity we are losing nowadays. Furthermore, the kindergarden's point is dont't control and protect too much for children. The children need to tumble sometimes and get some injury because that makes them to learn how to live in this world.

Task 2:
In my opinion, I think this kindergarten is perfect with freedom environment and allows children to play and run endless laps around it.I agree with speaker's opinion which he provide more explanations of this architecture kindergarten. Firstly, the kindergarten is completely open, most if the year and no boundary between inside and outside , that means this architecture is roof. Rather than impose physical boundaries on the children, this architect Takaharu Tezuka designed the kindergarten as a continuous space that allows for unfettered learning and playing.Moreover, they also consider noise is very important. Surprisingly, the speaker mention that children sleep better in noise and they don't sleep in quiet place.The free plan design encourages independent and collaboration, without forcing children to sit still and silent for long periods of time.Furthermore, the roof area doubles as a playground and running track, giving the students an endless ring to chase each other around.The speaker also mention that, don't control the children , don't protect them too much and they need to tumble sometimes because this makes them learn how to face the problems and how to live in this world.Children also learn the important of collaboration and mutual support.The children have to help each other while climbing up or down in stairway and this will enhance their kindness and unselfishness. Finally, this architect based kindergarten become one if the attempts to change the life of children.]]> 2018-04-26 02:25:34 UTC https://padlet.com/aimi_ed_mmumlk/T2_Online_Task_3/wish/255488961 Tan Yi Fan 1171100501 xariuscruz https://padlet.com/aimi_ed_mmumlk/T2_Online_Task_3/wish/255495561 Task 1:
a) A claim is a statement that can be argued and proven with evidence. It is not an obvious statement and not a personal opinion.

b) A good claim is specific and not general.

Task 2
I think the design of the kindergarten is very thoughtful. Firstly, the circle design is safer because although it is a huge, 'confined' space, children are allowed to interact with other children from other classes easily. By building around the trees not only can increase the fun for children around the kindergarten area it also allows some elements of nature to enter the classroom to make the overall classroom feels more relaxed compared to a sterile, concrete classroom. The rooftop are lower so that the teachers can still monitor the actions of the children and also reduce the risk of the children getting serious injuries when falling down. By not having any barriers between classrooms children not only can socialise easily but also concentrate better in a noisier environment. An environment which is so quiet that one can hear a pin drop not only decreases a person's concentration it also increases the feeling of anxiety during stress-heavy situation like during examination.The design of the kindergarten also teach children on how to help others when facing dangers which is lacking in the society nowadays.

I think this kindergarten is suit for the kids due to the activeness of a kids. I agree with the speaker opinion. Firstly, the kindergarten is open and no boundaries between classroom. This kindergarten dose not have any autistic child which means that the kids can be communicate well with each other. Secondly, kids is sleep well in a noisy environment. so they can show amazing concentration in class. Next the annex building which locate beside the kindergarten. Due to the architecture of this building, they learn how to help each other. This oval shape kindergarten can develop the children athletics abilities, due to their principal want to let the children run all over the compound. when the children falls , they get some injury.

- In my opinion, I agree with this kindergarten architecture. They were build for children to learn about the world by them self. Building trees in kindergarten and let children climb the trees freely was a great idea. This makes the children explore the natural beauty and learn to help each other . Furthermore, the kindergarten was build without classrooms which makes no "barrier" upon the children. This idea was great as it can prevent social problems happened nowadays. Other than that, the kindergarten also has social activities such as helping teachers decorating kindergarten. This activities was highly recommend as the children and the teachers able to build bonds and learn to respect each other. In addition, the kindergarten also build roof circling the kindergarten and giving the kids access to the roof. I totally agree with this idea, letting the children expose them self to small danger of the world, giving the small exposure to the real world and learn not to give up. In conclusion, this kindergarten architecture style was a great idea and able to change the future generation children lifestyle. ]]> 2018-04-26 08:02:57 UTC https://padlet.com/aimi_ed_mmumlk/T2_Online_Task_3/wish/255538484 Tai Jia Wei (1171100246) https://padlet.com/aimi_ed_mmumlk/T2_Online_Task_3/wish/255869407 Task 1

Task 2:

I think this kindergarten is designed specially for children. I agree with the speaker. In my opinion, the design of no boundary between inside and outside of classroom is better for children because most children are active and cannot sit properly in a room and learn. With this design, they will not feel trapped in a room because they can feel the atmosphere and hear the noise from the outside. Therefore, they can be more concentrate to the lesson taught by the teacher. Beside that, it is easier for children to communicate and make friends in noisy environment. Thus, they can learn some social skills and the kindergarten will have lesser autistic child. Next, the kindergarten is designed with little protection because they want the children to tumble and get injury sometimes and learn how to live in this world. The annex building beside the kindergarten can also let the children learn to cooperate and help each other and develop their athletic abilities.

-This kindergarten is good. The designs are so well-thought by the architecture team. The barrier-less design has given the opportunity for children to be more active. Since Mr. Takaharu said that they made this design to be no boundary between inside and outside of the classroom, this encouraged children to be more active and walk around and not just sitting in a classroom like other kindergarten did. Secondly, the team wanted to provide children a space to practice to help each others, and communicate to each other, so they have built an annex building, which has accomplished what they want that building to be.

Although it is and big area, parents do not need to worry about their children because it is a circle place and their children will come back while they are running around. Besides, the rooftop is not high so that teachers can look after them. Furthermore, there is no boundary between the classroom, so that the children can play and communicate with each other.

The open classroom architecture is also another good design which allows the children run around and meet their friends from another class. This also improves their social skills by making friends from another class.

From my point of view, I agree with what the speaker said and I think that the design of the kindergarten is very good and it suits the nature of children which is activeness. Children are very active and this kindergarten are open so the children will be exposed to the outer world more. This can also trigger their potentials in many things which help them to learn things quickly and think out of the box. The overall environment is relaxed and more interesting instead of a normal and typical kindergarten where children have to sit in their respective position in a classroom.

Task 2:
In my opinion, I agree with the speaker's design on the kindergarten. This kindergarten which is designed with a circle open roof not only allows children to run around endlessly, it also allows them to take in some fresh air during breaks. The open roof also provides a good spectator's view from above while simultaneously allowing teachers to supervise the children closely from below or above. The idea with the trees and the net is also a good one because it allows children to have fun together without putting them in danger and it also allows the children to have some body exercise when climbing the tree. Next, the open classroom design which has no physical barriers between classroom, allows the children to mentally feel like they are not in a "cage" when they're studying, and this will help them to improve not only their social skills but they can study better without feeling stressed out. The kindergarten also has an annex building which is similar to a playground and it allows children to exercise while playing with each other, improving their social skills and physical at the same time. It also provides children a small dose of danger, which helps children to determine what is dangerous in the future. This kindergarten emphasizes on the part where we should not control children too much and let them learn themselves so that they can triumph in their future life

Task 2:

In my opinion, I agree with the speaker. I think the kindergarten's design is a very inspiring concept. It is designed as a circle and there are no boundaries. The building doesn't end at any point, it just keeps going round and round. This allows the children to run freely without getting lost. There are no boundaries and acoustic barriers between classrooms. It is an open space. This allows noise going all around the kindergarten. It reduces the chances of children having autistic symptoms and other problems. Some children become nervous in a quiet and restricted space. Therefore, there is no reason to be nervous in this boundless kindergarten. All these aspects encourage children to think out of the box and to have an open mindset. They also have trees coming up from the roof with nets around them to prevent the kids from falling into the holes. This design is interesting to children because they think it is fun to be in the net. Moreover, there is also an annex building that is five meters tall and has seven floors. The children climb up and down of the building and they can jump off the edges. The speaker mentioned that kids need small dosage of danger. In this case, the kids will try to help each other to get down safely and they build friendships. Sometimes, the kids will get injured. They need to fall down and get back up. This teaches them how to live in this world. Kids are supposed to be outside and free. We should not control them too much as they will learn through obstacles when they face them.  ]]> 2018-04-27 08:11:49 UTC https://padlet.com/aimi_ed_mmumlk/T2_Online_Task_3/wish/255924634 Chua Jiaming (1171101251) https://padlet.com/aimi_ed_mmumlk/T2_Online_Task_3/wish/255944141 Task 1

Task 2
What do you think of this kindergarten? Do you agree with the speaker? State your opinion and provide reasons for your stand.

- In my opinion, I think that this kindergarten has an excellent design with just a circular shape. I agree with what the speaker’s said on the video. First, the school consists of a ground floor that full of classrooms and an open second floor with just a low rooftop that allow for the children to play on and run around freely without getting lost. It also allows children to get the golden opportunity to get close to nature since there are lots of trees growing throughout it and they can play and climb on the trees in and around the building. Besides, the speaker keeps the idea around the trees by installing rope nets around the gaps in the floor from which the trees protrude. This will help to protect children without having any danger when they play on the trees and nets and the teachers don’t have to worry so much about them falling onto the kids studying below. In addition, the classrooms aren’t really like rooms because there is no boundary between classrooms so this allow the children to move freely from one room to another. This also enable them to make more friends from different classes and they can play with each other. There is another building in the school which is the Annex Building, it is five meters tall with seven floors and just a circular shape again because the speaker knows that children like to run in circles. This is just a play area like a playground for the children to perform some activities such as climbing. The open edges around the structure allow the children to take more risks and taste some small dosage of danger. In this case, the children will learn to help each other naturally. Next, we don’t protect our children too much because they need to tumble sometimes and they need to get some injury. This will make them learn how to live in this world.

Task 2:
In my opinon, I agree with the speaker. The oval-shaped roof deck of this kindergarten allows children to play and run endless laps around it without forcing children to sit still and silent for long periods of time. It allows children to contact with nature.  Besides, there is no boundaries between the classroom. This kind of classroom can make the children more socialized (communication skill, listening skill, self-confidence) and increase their concentration in a noisier environment. Lastly, there is also Annex building in the kindergarten. This building allows the children do some activities and climbing. When the childrens climbing up and down, they will try to help each other to get down safely and they build friendships.

Task 2:
In my opinon, i agree with the speaker which designed the kindergarten with the circle open shape roof. It is because the circle open shapre roof is more safe and special.The cirle roof is actually make teachers easier to find their student that want to hide.This kind of kindergarten also make children close to nature with the trees and trunk around the kindergarten.After than that, the rooftop are lower so that the teacher can monitor the actions of the children and also reduce the risk of the children getting serious injuries when falling down. By not having the wall between classrooms, children not only can communicate with more children, but also make  them more concentrate in a noisier enviroment.]]> 2018-04-28 00:57:09 UTC https://padlet.com/aimi_ed_mmumlk/T2_Online_Task_3/wish/256184646 Hau Rui Shyen (1171101163) https://padlet.com/aimi_ed_mmumlk/T2_Online_Task_3/wish/256189849 Task 1:

Task 2:
In my opinion, I agree with the speaker's design on the kindergarten due to this kind of design reduce risk, make children play in a  more safe and special environment. For example, there are a net which equip under the tree to reduce risk while children fall from the tree. Beside that, It make children more free to play and run around it, and no need to sit still and silent. It also can let children enjoy in nature, and prevent them addicted in any mobile product such as smartphone,  because nowadays, there are more and more parent like to give their children a smartphone to kill time and sit silent.
Furthermore, children will have a better relationship with their friend while playing in this environment, not just sit in the class, but play with their friend in a more safe and free surrounding. From the other hand, it can also make children more socially and make more friend.

I agree with what the speaker said in the video due to the design of the kindergarten. This kindergarten which is designed with a circle open roof. So, it has a very large space to allow children to run around endlessly. It is also an opportunity to allow children explore the nature with the trees and trunk in the kindergarten and also make children close among themselves. With the circle open shape roof design, teacher can 360 degree no-dead-end to keep watch over children . Beside that, the annex building also let the children to work together and help each other. Although they will injured when falls, but this can make them learnt how to avoid danger through these little injury and become vigilant to live in this world in the future.  In conclusion, this architect's kindergarten is able to change the life of children and guide them to a better future.]]> 2018-04-28 02:33:05 UTC https://padlet.com/aimi_ed_mmumlk/T2_Online_Task_3/wish/256190480 Wong Kian Meng (1171101672) https://padlet.com/aimi_ed_mmumlk/T2_Online_Task_3/wish/256192255 Task 1:

In my opinion, I think that this kindergarten has a very decent design. I agree with what the speaker said. The endless circulation on top of the roof of the kindergarten is very special and interesting. This kindergarten allows children to relax themselves in such an open and big environment rather than just sitting still in a classroom for their classes. It provides a lot of spaces for the children which I think is very healthy for the children because children are very active and they like running and playing around with their friends. Next, the safety of the children are well taken care of. The roof of the kindergarten is made as low as possible and there is also no boundary between classroom so teachers and parents could spot their children easily. ]]> 2018-04-28 03:03:14 UTC https://padlet.com/aimi_ed_mmumlk/T2_Online_Task_3/wish/256192255 Teh Chun Rong 1171101885 https://padlet.com/aimi_ed_mmumlk/T2_Online_Task_3/wish/256193975 What is a claim?

In my opinion, i agree with the speaker. The kindergarten has design with the circular shape because they know that children like to run in circles. Teacher can find children easily because there is not end point. Besides that, the rooftop is not high so that teacher and parents no worries to their children. This kindergarten consist tree with net so children can be more creative. So children can climb it and can help each other to climb up the trees. In conclusion, this kindergarten is help children to change life make the life more challenging and keep close with nature.

I think this kindergarten is a suitable place in thriving children. I agree with the speaker because this kindergarten is designed especially for infants in developing their childhood mentally and physically. The circular rooftop and mainly the shape of the kindergarten makes it does not consist end point which allows the children to run freely and provide an easy job for the teachers in finding the children. Since there is no boundary inside and outside of the kindergarten, which indicated that the bond between the children is rigid and inseparable and perhaps we can give credit to the trees in the kindergarten. The slides show that the children have interest in climbing trees until a boy tends to 'eat' them. During the climbing process, the children will learn how to work together to climb a tree. For the annex building, parents and teachers need not to be worried too much because the ceiling of the building is not too high for the children. In a nutshell, this kindergarten has considered the best in thriving children by having the facilities that are healthy in developing children which can prevent children to have autism.]]> 2018-04-28 04:17:02 UTC https://padlet.com/aimi_ed_mmumlk/T2_Online_Task_3/wish/256196052 Gan Yen Wen (1171101541) https://padlet.com/aimi_ed_mmumlk/T2_Online_Task_3/wish/256197718 Task 1:

 I agree with the speaker. The kindergarten is unique and different from the normal kindergarten which we see in daily life. Children will not feel restricted  as there is no walls between the classes. They are free to move around, run in the kindergarten and climb the trees with their friends. The rooftop is built around the trees based on the design. There will be nets surrounded the tree to provide safety when the kids falling down from climbing.  Moreover,  there is an annex building for the children to play. This building is 5 meters tall with 7 floors which is safe to climb or jump. The boundaries between children become stronger when they trying to help each others in playing. This kindergarten provides a freely and safety place for the children to learn, play and have fun. Children are not scolded when they running around. In other hand, parents and teachers let them run. They get injured afterwards, know the pain and learn from that. ]]> 2018-04-28 05:03:38 UTC https://padlet.com/aimi_ed_mmumlk/T2_Online_Task_3/wish/256197718 Lim Zhou Yi (1171101443) joey_lv123 https://padlet.com/aimi_ed_mmumlk/T2_Online_Task_3/wish/256198089 Task 1:

Task 2:
In my opinion, the kindergarten that the speaker built provides a very suitable environment for the children to grow and learn. The success of the kindergarten is due to his deep understanding in the nature of the children. The design itself is very unique. The round shape of the building and its roof allow children to run around the area. And since here are no boundaries between classrooms , it gives children to interact with other freely and easily. The kindergarten is also surrounded with trees which allows children to be closer to nature. Besides that, children is free to do the things they want instead of being confined in the classroom. They can climb the trees, run around and more. I like the idea of the kindergarten that children are taught by experiences instead of fully on books. Nowadays, parents are very protective towards their children. This way is not effective because children will not learn from there. In the kindergarten, children is allowed to run or climb, and if they fall, they will learn from their lesson. It makes them more self aware. Children has to tumble sometimes to understand.

Task2
I agree with the speaker. In my opinion, the kindergarten is very special and unique when compare with others. This kindergarten provides a very suitable and comfortable environment for the children. Children did not feel constrain as there  are no walls between boundaries of classes. Besides, there are trees surrounded in kindergarten, the children will keep a touch with the nature. There are safety nets surrounded the tree so the children can climb the trees safety with low risk injured. Furthermore, this kindergarten built an annex building with just 5 meter tall and have 7 floors for children to play. This height is safe for children to climb or jump among the floor. Children can also learn how to help each other when they want to help others climbing down the floors. The speaker had said that children need some small injured, I agree with that. Parents nowadays are too protective towards their children, if the childrens does not learn small lesson when they are still small, their attitudes are hard to change when they are growing up. Children has to “fall” sometimes to learn some lesson.]]> 2018-04-28 06:46:05 UTC https://padlet.com/aimi_ed_mmumlk/T2_Online_Task_3/wish/256201244
