SCHOOLS THEN AND NOW by https://padlet.com/andreavilaginesregos/l62fgdj59lvf Andrea Vilaginés, Max López, Mar Johnsson en-us 2016-11-27 10:35:23 UTC 2023-02-18 17:32:42 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/icons/Rafaelo.png INTERVIEW WITH MY DAD andreavilaginesregos https://padlet.com/andreavilaginesregos/l62fgdj59lvf/wish/140016880 Do you think that education for 13 year old kids has changed from when you were that age to now?
Yes and no. I think that some of the details are very different, but the basics of learning are the same.

Which details do you think are different?
I went to a public school in Canada and the hours were different. we had a shorter lunch break and finished much earlier. I went to 8th grade in 1978 so there was none of the technology of today in our classroom. Technology for us was pencil and paper. We were not even allowed to use a calculator.

What do you think is the same?
The basic subject are still the same, maths, science, geography, history, languages and so on. These are the things that you need to learn about our society and the world we live in.

Did you have homework?
Yes, I had one to two hours every night.

Were extracurricular activities common?
Not like today. I took piano lessons once a week, but that is all. Some of my friend did as well but not everyone.

Did you have a uniform?
In my public school there was no uniform except for gym class.

Did everyone go to school?
Yes, of course. All of the kids in my neighborhood went to the same school.

Would you like to have learnt with today’s technology?
Perhaps, but the important fundamentals do not depend on technology.

Do you think that your type of education prepared you?
Yes, the fundamentals prepared me to be a member of society and to continue studying while I continue to learn every day.

This can make studying easier and also funnier than now.]]> 2016-11-28 18:15:10 UTC https://padlet.com/andreavilaginesregos/l62fgdj59lvf/wish/140278407 INTERVIEW WITH MY DAD, conclusion andreavilaginesregos https://padlet.com/andreavilaginesregos/l62fgdj59lvf/wish/140303089 I have seen that the fundamentals of education at our age have not changed. The basic things that we have to learn and have knowledge of are the same. This things are for example maths, languages, geography and so on. They also had homework like us. What has really changed is the way that this knowledge has been showed to kids. The technology has evolved a lot, none of the new technology from today was used, everything was on paper and with pencils. An other thing that is also different now is the hours of class, before, in Canada, the lunch break was shorter than now and people got home earlier.
The final conclusion that I have taken is that the important facts of education are not the things that we use to learn (the technology), but they are the important fundamentals that the show us.

His father was a teacher, and he himself was educated in Johannesburg. After leaving school he trained first as a teacher and in 1954 he graduated from the University of South Africa. After three years as a high school teacher he began to study theology, being ordained as a priest in 1960. From 1967 to 1972 he taught theology in South Africa before returning to England for three years as the assistant director of a theological institute in London. In 1975 he was appointed Dean of St. Mary's Cathedral in Johannesburg, the first black to hold that position. From 1976 to 1978 he was Bishop of Lesotho, and in 1978 became the first black General Secretary of the South African Council of Churches. Tutu is an honorary doctor of a number of leading universities in the USA, Britain and Germany.]]> 2016-11-28 20:57:12 UTC https://padlet.com/andreavilaginesregos/l62fgdj59lvf/wish/140340123 andreavilaginesregos https://padlet.com/andreavilaginesregos/l62fgdj59lvf/wish/140418408 2016-11-29 08:03:55 UTC https://padlet.com/andreavilaginesregos/l62fgdj59lvf/wish/140418408 3 PICTURES DESCRIBING HOW EDUCATION WILL BE IN THE FUTURE andreavilaginesregos https://padlet.com/andreavilaginesregos/l62fgdj59lvf/wish/140418974 2016-11-29 08:07:14 UTC https://padlet.com/andreavilaginesregos/l62fgdj59lvf/wish/140418974 andreavilaginesregos https://padlet.com/andreavilaginesregos/l62fgdj59lvf/wish/140444596 In the future, schools will be bigger than now, because there will be more students.]]> 2016-11-29 10:31:41 UTC https://padlet.com/andreavilaginesregos/l62fgdj59lvf/wish/140444596 andreavilaginesregos https://padlet.com/andreavilaginesregos/l62fgdj59lvf/wish/140445426 There are lots of differences between the American education in 1950 and now. 
Sixty years ago, the average teacher salary was much lower than now. In 1950, not even half of the population graduated High School, and nowadays, almost one hundred percent of the americans graduate, which means that now more people go to school and study. One of the most important changes is the technology used in class. The objects that we use now are, obviously, more advanced an evolved, for example, we have tablets, digital blackboards, laptops… So, the final conclusion can be that education is evolving a lot and people are taking more seriously the importance of studying.
