The world with out computer

I can't imagine the world without computer at this present generation, because what ever we do, we  do need the help of computer/s. Perhaps if the world don't have any computer it will be hard for every one especially those who work on a company that needs an access to other country either in domestic places. It will be hard for every people to work with out computer and everything will be as slow as turtle, computer/s help people to make things as fast as possible just like if someone needs  to research for a particular thing he don't need to look for  any reference aside from the computer because almost all the information, computer has with the use of  internet. The world without computer is dull, it seems that everything is in slow motion because there will be no online communication you don't have any communication to someone abroad you either see them because phones don't have cameras like computer. Without computer there will be no emails you are sick and tired of waiting the message from someone and you have been worn out of sending messages to post office hassle on your part isn't it?. And if you are a music lover your house seems to be a music store because of your music collection unlike if you have computer  you can download it right through your PC. To have a day go  with out using computer would be unnatural and as hard as it is.

What it seems to be an Education without computer? we are living on the 21st century and at this generation computer/s is considered as one of the tools that can help teachers as well as students to have a so called quality of education and  I am definitely sure that education without the help of computer would be harder especially to those students who can not afford to buy books, imagine they have to look through thousands of books just to get the information they needed, it will take more time and effort to accomplish the research. On the part of the teacher with out the use of computer in manner of teaching is hard for the reason that the exams are being typed on the computer to lessen the time compare when they write it through pen-paper way. Also the new way of computing grades is with the use of computer through the help of excel to get the result faster unlike when they will do  it  manually it takes time, how  will it be if the teacher has a more number of students, it is mind breaking. I think it is hard for the education system to make learning process effectively without computer/s.

r7 skills competition

  

this is flair tending with wine mixing last year the rubics only includes on the flair tending but this year the judges includes the wine mixing they judged also the manner of wine mixing of the tle students if it is in good taste or not. This skill is not that easy to learn but of the perseverance of my two classmates to be a part of this skill they exerted extra effort and time including money and they successfully done it surprisingly their performance was stunning. Quiz bee is also one part of the event battle of the retained learning I think is the quiz bee it is the measurement on how the students absorb all the lesson this part made the participants nervous actually.

Cosmetology is the most awaited part of this event it showcase the talents of the tle students especially their creativity in terms of the application of  make up and using the recycable  materials.  This part is very exciting in here you will see different people transformed on how they project and  model their art work I am talking about the models. 

There is also table skirting,  this part also requires patience and dedication because it is also time consuming it also requires so much creativity and passion. 

There is also fruit curving, electricity, drafting and 

wood working. Skills competition is full of fun, thrill , and lots of exciting experiences that we seldom experienced during the normal day inside the classroom more often than not it is one way to create friendships or harmonious relationship towards our course mate. Yearly skills competition is prepared by our beloved and dedicated tle councils  I salute all who participated  for the success of the skills competition with out the perseverance and creativity of our participants this event would'nt be successful as it was. 
Of course I also have a suggestion for improvement of this event, I think if the councils or the people behind this event planned already an exact rules/categories on every part of the game for example they should'nt change it minute before the particular part let's say quiz bee because the participants were informed already about the rules. So they prepared for it but if they change it minute before the competition starts it would be hard for the participants.  I think they should stick on the planned rules no more changing or shifting if they want to clarify things they should do it right away week or days before the event not a minute before, like what was happened this last skills competition on the part of quiz bee but in general it was good all things done smoothly.

4th Revolution in Education that will bring  a drastic change in teaching-learning process
One of the major problems of every students  particularly those college students is how to take down every words that will come out from their professors/teachers during discussion. Especially if your teacher/professor has no visual aid or exact reference about the lesson. Because of the eagerness to write every detail, students' focus is no longer on the lesson itself instead on the thought that he had to take down all the words that his professors has been  said, at the end of the lesson he learned nothing from the discussion. And when the time comes that the student needs to review his notes he understands nothing about what wrote because he was busy writing and he can no longer recall the discussion solely. So I come with the idea that probably the 4th revolution in education that can bring drastic change in terms of learning after computer is what we call smart pen. It is very much useful to every students who  find hard time taking down notes , afraid to miss even one word from their professor/teacher. Smart pen can record the voice of the teacher during discussion while you are writing, you can recall the lesson by merely tapping word record at the bottom part of the notebook and it will start recording and create a dot on a particular lesson, and after it you can recall the lesson  buy simply tapping the dot on the specific lesson and that's it with any hassle you can review the lesson with out any problem if you miss one note. Through the use of smart pen every student will never miss a word.

R5 SOPA

http://lifehacker.com/5860205/all-about-sopa-the-bill-thats-going-to-cripple-your-internet

This SOPA or Stop Online Piracy Act is a bill introduced by representative Lamar S. Smith,if ever that this bill is  implemented it will censor sites that allegedly "engage in, or facilatate" copyright infringement. Like the sites that we usually use such as facebook, google, wikipedia, and the like.This bill came out to snuff out piracy online to prevent those infringers from downloading or copying the content of their site.
But there are specific sites who vehemently oppose to on this bill like google,tmblr,facebook,and several sites because they don't just affect the small users but event very large companies with a large stake in the great things the internet and the modern technology have to offer.

What does SOPA means it is Stop Online Piracy Act it targeted any site that  contributed to copyright infringement,even if it was simply facilitating the act by providing a tool that could be use for illegal purposes(regardless of the intention).

If this bill will be approved by the US government the most affected users are the poor students who actually rely on this tool of easy access learning. Students will no longer find ways to get information for their research works or assignment. There will be no easy access source aside from the internet what if the students don't have a book as reference it will be hard for them to get information if this bill will be implemented .
