north korea dictatorship

north korea have been a dictatorship since 1948. it separates itself form south korea. doing this isolates north korea form south korea. the dictatorship of north korea also makes a lots of tension in asia, because its military has nuclear bombs, which are not allowed, but they make it anyway, so it really creates tension to each country about north Korea's strong military.
now there are actually more and more people wants the government in korea to be change, because they wants to have more freedom, and rights. but because they had such a government that they have no voice, so they can't change the government, which is really bad and sad.
Because north korea is a dictator, so their government chose to focus on military, which most of the people don't appreciate it, but because it was a dictator, so everything that the government decide can't be stop or change.

Revised Bloom's Taxonomy of Cognitive Levels

Creating: i think we think creative when we are doing our projects. like imovie, because we have to be creative, so we can make a video.

evaluating: i think evaluating is like when we think about how an event will effect us and the world, because we have to think from many different ways, and think really critically

analyzing: i think analyzing is like when we look at a data or some informations, and we try to do some observations for it.

applying: i think applying is like when we learn something in class, then we try to use it out side of the class.

understanding: i think understanding is like when we read a message or writing, and we understand and knows what it's talking about.

remembering: i think remembering is just reading the same thing over and over again and have all the information in your head, but you don't know how to use it.

active learners

we were all active learners this week
when we were watching the video, and learning about the history of WW2
i think WW2 is a very interesting war
and contains lots of good information for we to learn.
i hope we can learn lots of thing in this chapter.

WW2 video reaction

this week in class we saw a video about WW2. after i saw the video, the biggest question in my mind is why would the "axis" lose?. they have such strong military and lot of soliders..... there is no reason for them to lose. the other question is that, why they didn't even keep any of the colonies to be part of there country after the war? they had conquere so many lands, why wouldn't them be able to keep some of them.

Current events

today i saw a very interesting news. it talks about that there are only enough food for 60 days, if we stop working now, and it is the lowest for 25 years. this news shows us that over populating is really causing a big problem on the earth. so i think we have to quickly face the problem before it grows too big to solve.
