A New invention - blog prompt

I am sure that many of you have different ways of learning, i myself am a physical learner. You see, scientists have devoloped an emulator that helps different people learn better and faster. For the verbal students they hear what the lessons is about at a high volume and the audio is witty.For the visual learners they can see texts in front of them which are automatically scrolled. For the physical learners they undergo a simulation which teaches them everything they know. Each pupil has his or her own private emulator, so the noters for each person is different and is easy for the students to view. The teachers now have a more relaxed job as work is also submitted and auto corrected by the teacher version of the emulator. The teacher just needs to review the work and send it back to the students. Many students remarked on how easy lessons were now and due to the fact that they can cover more in a faster time, the pupils get to learn more and after the exams they can have more fun.

Socratic Questions

Socratic questions were questions Socrates asked his pupils. they were asked to challenge accuracy and completeness of thinking in a way that acts to move people towards their ultimate goal.
The questions clarified, probed assumptions , probed accuracy in thinking, probed relevance in thinking, probed depth in thinking and asked questions about the questions.
When Socrates questioned his pupils at first they were annoyed but after that they were delighted to be asked the questions.

Silver Workforce- A speech

Dear sirs and madams.

I am here to tell you about the advantages of hiring us older people. many of you think that we older people are less efficient than the young people. That may be true but unlike younger people we have more integrity and are less likely to cheat on the company.
Old people have worked before and are wise and have experience and can give advice to the younger people on many different matters some old people may know many helpful skills to help their new companies .
Secondly when old people work with the public they are more able to understand the customer. the old people then are able to provide better service to the customers.
Thirdly, old people are more positive in their work and are dedicated to their jobs. They will take pride in their achievements and you will be satisfied with their work.

The benifits of old workers far outweigh their negative sides and do not forget one day everyone including you will be old workers.

New beginnin.

this is the first post of this blog. i will do my utmost to keep this blog alive.

This is my potato. There are many like it but this one is mine. My potato is my best friend. It is my life. I must master it as I master my potato. My potato, without me is useless. Without my potato, I am useless. I must widen my girth true. I must be fatter than any enemy who is trying to out-fat me. I must potato him before he potatoes me.My potato and myself know that what counts in this war is not the pounds we weigh, the noise of our fart, nor the mess we make. We know that it is the fat that counts. We will fatten up...My potato is human, even as I, because it is my life. Thus, I will learn it as a brother. I will learn its weakness, its strength, its flesh, its buds, its skin and its heart. I will keep my potato clean and ready, even as I am clean and ready. We will become part of each other. We will...

Before God I swear this creed. My potato and myself are the defenders of my honor. We are the masters of our enemy. We are the saviors of my life. So be it, until victory is mine and there is no enemy, but Peace.

thanks to chin kee yong for the above creed
