AS TEACHERS WHERE IS OUR PRIORITY IN TEACHING?

As we teach in schools, do we really expose the learners to real issues? I know of course many might say that the lack of resources hinders their initiatives. But see how ICT can bring various issues affecting our learners right into the classroom. It only takes creativity and thinking about the learner in this contemporary world. By using ICT in our social studies and English classes and all the other subjects, we are helping in showing, sensitizing the learners about the need for collective responsibility and also preparing them to be better decision makers.
Please share with me this information and think of other ways through which the various concepts therein can be articulated using ICT in our classrooms.

FROM A SOCIAL STUDIES PERSPECTIVE.

Such a situation that exposes this little one to harm at the enjoyment of the photographer shows that Social studies teachers have a lot to do as regards citizenship education. ICT should not be used to harness such unreasoned behaviors.

DOES IT MATTER AT ALL?

You make the best of what is available to you, to some people this is their orientation. This old man seems to be pretty content with his situation if he can even get sleep in such uncomfortable circumstances. He is a cleaner of a corridor stretch that links two gates, he is also a messenger and a watchman.He sleeps on the veranda with out protective gear and that is where his few belongs are (a bowl, a dish, a big bottle, mingling stick). He has old carpet pieces that pose for a bed and ply wood to brave the hard floor. His attitude is totally different, he is drunk most of the time. I believe sleeping outside year in year out requires some bravery  mechanisms such as those applied by this old man. Socially, emotionally and economically this person is challenged hence his mode of life style. Probably if he had a better place to live, he would live life differently.

YOUR BEDROOM CAN BE YOUR REFLECTION

In most cases how we present ourselves speaks volumes about where we live.Such a neatly done floor with clean walls and mirrors all over the room influences the room owner to be mind full of her appearance and general outlook about life. Such a room impacts on the owner principles of orderliness because the mirrors offer reflection which rings a bell even in all other activities outside the room. Because of this setting, such a person is always conscious and tries to live life neatly so that the legacy left behind reflections the true person.

HOW DOES WHERE A PERSON LIVES IMPACT HOW S/HE LIVES?

MEALS ARE ALSO IMPACTED UPON 
 Life presents us with lots of opportunities, challenges, memories in our per suite for improvement.
For example, students living in a hostel are forced to work together, have concern for one another especially as regards meals since it is a shared venture. It is evident that one serves what is appropriate in consideration of others and at a certain time which may not be the case back in their homes.Such a living activates collective responsibility for the good of all who have to share the meal. Additionally students have to eat what has been served or quietly seek options. Indeed where we live to some extent influences how we live.
