What is Learning?
I believe that you know when you're learning something when you start to incorporate it in
your life and when you connect your learning with your personal experiences, that shows that
you know and comprehend the material and you can reflect on it and put it in your daily life. I
think that shows that you've learned something.
Grading:
Grades can either show that you really understood a subject by getting a really good grades or
show that you learn nothing from a bad grade or they can mean the exact opposite. I think grades
are a great reflection of somebody's knowledge because they show how good they can
comprehend the information for exams and reflect or learn. Usually when I get bad grades it's
because I procrastinate and pushed the assignment back a lot, not because I didn't have the
knowledge for it. I just had my priorities wrong and forgot about the assignment and I made a
bad grade but that shouldn't represent my knowledge of the class. Grades are a touchy subject but
are needed to represent people knowledge of topics, if you just do the work than everything
should go good for you.
Overall learning is important to Keep everything going and have a functioning society, more
people need to be educated and able to attend college so they can have a bright future. The
education system might not be the best but if you work hard enough it can give you a bright
future.
