Social media has a large impact on our social development, we see perspectives of others and we tend to believe that we're good enough to and that we need to be more like other people. We are scared to be our own person when we should be proud of who we are. Schools should have more workshops and presentations delivered to the students to tell them it okay to be who you are. ]]> 2017-05-15 15:22:56 UTC https://padlet.com/susan_klooster1/ycouusrzfvbm/wish/171866221 https://padlet.com/susan_klooster1/ycouusrzfvbm/wish/171866378 This is the domain where teenagers can get lost. When schools have teachers that provide a support system and encourage students to strive to be their best, it's extremely important and helpful. Teachers who open their doors at lunch are the ones that impact students more because they're making themselves readily available to students struggling with their identity. It aids in their development as a person, having that support system there, whether it's with teachers, child and youth workers, or their friends. 

Within our classes, it doesn't always feel like students have the chance to explore their interests the way they'd like to. This is because of the environment we live in and the fact it's such a small space, but regardless there should be a push for more courses to let students explore what they want to do, rather than limit them to courses related to their area. ]]> 2017-05-15 15:23:22 UTC https://padlet.com/susan_klooster1/ycouusrzfvbm/wish/171866378 https://padlet.com/susan_klooster1/ycouusrzfvbm/wish/171866612 During this domain, students often try and experiment with new friends or they will dye their hair to see how the school environment will react. During schools, if there is the one friend group who is different than others, it might be seen as "weird" because they are different compared to others. Students will limit themselves to that group only and will be intimidated by social groups such as Student Council fearing they will be judged. ]]> 2017-05-15 15:23:57 UTC https://padlet.com/susan_klooster1/ycouusrzfvbm/wish/171866612 https://padlet.com/susan_klooster1/ycouusrzfvbm/wish/171866701 I believe there are many social barriers at my school. With the many different social groups, it is difficult to successfully encourage student involvement in the school. ]]> 2017-05-15 15:24:15 UTC https://padlet.com/susan_klooster1/ycouusrzfvbm/wish/171866701 https://padlet.com/susan_klooster1/ycouusrzfvbm/wish/171866747 I believe that the domain in which schools can improve on factoring into education is this one. The social domain is extremely important because it's what shapes who we are and how we interact- the basics of humanity. I believe that our education system ignores social development because it seems irrelevant or too "dramatic". Issues like bullying, rumours no even the way students talk back to teachers need to be improved on.]]> 2017-05-15 15:24:24 UTC https://padlet.com/susan_klooster1/ycouusrzfvbm/wish/171866747 https://padlet.com/susan_klooster1/ycouusrzfvbm/wish/171866973 Since our school is small, it is a challenge to have more friends and have an opportunity for us to experience things other students get to in other schools. Since our community is mostly religion based, it makes it hard to be gay or come out in our school, without having people dislike you.

I think there are not enough opportunities in our school to allow for students to reach out and explore their interests outside of the classroom. I think because our school is so small there aren't many extracurricular activities. Other than that I don't think our school is accepting others who don't fit into the social norm. I see this everyday where rude comments are being made to people who wear something different. This keeps the students from thinking that their school is accepting of their peer.]]> 2017-05-15 15:26:04 UTC https://padlet.com/susan_klooster1/ycouusrzfvbm/wish/171867264 https://padlet.com/susan_klooster1/ycouusrzfvbm/wish/171867433 In my opinion we as teenagers going through the social changes and we let social media play a big impact on the way we see ourselves and others. I believe that chills need to have workshops to help build up confidence and social skills of students. This may also help some students learn better as they progress through these workshops and have more confidence in themselves

Mental health has become a big topic of discussion everywhere but students are still not comfortable talking as they're scared of what others might say. ]]> 2017-05-15 15:26:42 UTC https://padlet.com/susan_klooster1/ycouusrzfvbm/wish/171867448 https://padlet.com/susan_klooster1/ycouusrzfvbm/wish/171867467 Our school environment is very social, since it's a small school you know everyone, and the teachers are always willing to talk]]> 2017-05-15 15:26:46 UTC https://padlet.com/susan_klooster1/ycouusrzfvbm/wish/171867467 https://padlet.com/susan_klooster1/ycouusrzfvbm/wish/171867823 In our school, Ifeel like our library has turned into a social place and for me it is an uneasy feeling for working, you like you are being looked at differently just because you are not from that one group of people. ]]> 2017-05-15 15:27:50 UTC https://padlet.com/susan_klooster1/ycouusrzfvbm/wish/171867823 https://padlet.com/susan_klooster1/ycouusrzfvbm/wish/171867960 There's lots of clubs and sports available to get students out and be social with each other, most kids participate from our school so that we are able to run as many things as we do.]]> 2017-05-15 15:28:19 UTC https://padlet.com/susan_klooster1/ycouusrzfvbm/wish/171867960 https://padlet.com/susan_klooster1/ycouusrzfvbm/wish/171868523 My school has a very low population so there many disadvantages and advantages to this on a social level. In my opinion, our school has a family-like bond so it's nice to feel warm and welcomed everyday. It's always nice to know everyone because you can communicate and interact with literally everyone compared to other school who have cliques/groups. Challenges in my school would be extracurricular activities such as sports and clubs. Since it is a small population, organizing school teams and clubs is hard due to the fact that we don't have enough people. ]]> 2017-05-15 15:30:09 UTC https://padlet.com/susan_klooster1/ycouusrzfvbm/wish/171868523 https://padlet.com/susan_klooster1/ycouusrzfvbm/wish/171868941 There's a sort of heirarchy in my school that I think should be adressed. Even with such a low population, it's difficult to blend the grades together for school activities, or even assemblies. This divide creates a fairly unwelcoming environement when you walk into school everyday.]]> 2017-05-15 15:31:21 UTC https://padlet.com/susan_klooster1/ycouusrzfvbm/wish/171868941 https://padlet.com/susan_klooster1/ycouusrzfvbm/wish/171869496 At my school there are several students who lack the feeling of acceptance so they sometimes go down the path of drugs and other mal choices]]> 2017-05-15 15:32:52 UTC https://padlet.com/susan_klooster1/ycouusrzfvbm/wish/171869496 https://padlet.com/susan_klooster1/ycouusrzfvbm/wish/171869637 My school has a population of no more than 150 people. In this small school people have become disconnected and no longer want to participate in anything. Students are skipping activities and going home instead of participating. It is really hard to watch the population of your school become so disconnected. I believe that wen should have a support system or a group to try and help people want to become involved and make our school a happier place. ]]> 2017-05-15 15:33:16 UTC https://padlet.com/susan_klooster1/ycouusrzfvbm/wish/171869637 https://padlet.com/susan_klooster1/ycouusrzfvbm/wish/171871874 Many students who do not participate in athletics do not converse in other conversation with others. Students who have coloured hair, piercings etc.. are seen to be "weird" and different compared to others. They are often excluded from social events and not spoken too unless forced.
