HACK TO SCHOOL!

This Class...

In regards to a particular class of mine, I was asked:

1. What is this class about?

In terms of this class, in general it is about analyzing texts and or the English language as it is. However, it is not as simple as it sounds. The learning method of this course is called an open-source learning network. In other words, we do not follow the traditional stick to the textbook ideology. In other words, this class is about the goal to improve our writing skills, vocabulary, and analytic ability through numerous online sources and excerpts.

2. What is the easiest part of this class?

In my view, the easiest part of this class is that all "assignments" are online. There are no heavy textbooks, organized notebooks, or stack of papers we need to keep track of. In addition, we are given this sense of freedom there is no outline or rubric to this class. We are only required to spread our opinions and or thoughts.As a result, I find that portion the "easy" section in this course. 

3. What is the hardest part of this class?

Now, I think the most difficult part of this class is the asking of finding the deeper meaning behind texts constantly. At the times, the hidden message of a text just seems o stand out perfectly. But, sometimes it really serves to be a "hidden message" which I find pretty hard to analyze at times. 

4. What have you learned so far?

So, far I have learned to correctly/efficiently break down a text (tone, diction, syntax), I do not have right to my opinion, and how to expand on my perspective/opinion. 

5. What is your Big Question?

My Big Question is, Why are high school students under the obligation to study all subjects even if they are irrelevant to their desired major/Profession?
