Blog Post #10



In the beginning of Randy Pausch's Last Lecture he started with his child hood dreams and in each one of them he presented several thoughts. Three things that really stuck to me was you have something to bring to the table, fundamentals, and dedication. In his lecture he stated how he enhanced the learning for students by allowing them to participate in a NASA competition and if they won they would be able  to know how it feels when there is no gravity. He then talked about how it felt to help others achieve their child hood dreams through learning. He then states how he does a PBL project to learn and fulfill others dreams. As he explains the numerous projects he talks about how the students learned from each other and those in their life. This really showed how whether we now it or not we influence each other and help each other. Towards the end he states to not give up on child hood dreams because it can enhance not only your teaching but help others learn. What can we learn from Pausch about Teaching and Learning? In order to teach we must first be able to learn. Remember to learn something from everyone you encounter so that you can teach someone else that they are able to learn and continue the process we call EDUCATION.
