Post Class Reflection(August 26)

 

After two weeks of interruption of English class, due to festive holiday, we resumed our class. As over scheduling of online classes and the load of heavy assignments were taking a toll on us, we asked Mr. Eak sir to conduct his class only once a week as course was fast and we could finish it way ahead of schedule. He agreed to cancel classes of Friday.

As presentation routine was going on, the first presenter of the day, Anjali presented on Travel Report in a memo format. The presentation was really good and easy to understand. She even posed us some questions at last which made it extra clear. This type of report is made when we visit a place for various purposes and the details of the report varies accordingly. After the first presentation, Subechhak and Mohit gave another good presentation on Recommendation and Feasible Report. At first, Mohit presented on recommendation report and then Subechhak presented on Feasible Report. We learned that even though these reports looks like they have the same motive on the surface, they are quite different. A recommendation report is used to provide the most suitable solution to a problem while a feasible report is used to examine whether a project would be beneficial or not.

There was still quite a time left after the two presentations, so our teacher asked if the third presenters were ready for today. They said that they were but before that our teacher got us involved in a class activity in Menti-meter. He asked us to write down an idea that we had today. It was a really refreshing session and interesting. Then we got back to the third presenters for today, Raja Rama and Sampurna. They presented on the essay “Keeping Errors at Bay” by Bertrand Russell in Toulmin’s argumentation model. It was another really good presentation and we learned some of the reasons why we make some foolish mistakes and how we can fix them. After this presentation our teacher concluded the class and with new ideas said to meet next Wednesday.

Limits of humanity

  We might as well argue that our limit lies beyond the stars or perhaps there is no limit to which our civilization can prosper, where our descendants will dominate the outreach of cosmos. But as we know even the infinity is restricted by limit. The very idea of infinity lies on our capacity to unable to imagine something so vast, so beyond our prospect of imagination, something that does not exist in our realm of thoughts. So in this extensive process where we are heading towards the undisputed path of oblivion and nothing in the universe last forever where does our limits last? Is there a border we will never be able to reach? Are there places we may never discover despite every effort we put? The answer might be pretty disappointing. Sharing a deep affinity with the ever expanding universe, it seems that our limit lies in the very limit of universe itself. Our solar system is located in a remote corner of a 100,000 light year radius sized spiral galaxy. Even the trip to the nea...

Post class reflection (August 14)

  It was a lovely morning and the class begun at 9 o'clock sharp. Today's class was different from any other as we were presenting "The Stub Book". I was a little nervous to be frank and was discussing all sort of questions and process with my friend Aditya. As the class started Mr. Duwadi sir talked about online poll system and buzz words but the first link he sent was not accessible. But the next one worked which evaluated the answer students submitted. Next was the time for presentation part which was rushed as time was limited because we only have one hour class on Friday. Ashish and Anurag presented on " Adaptive Failure: Easter’s End." It was a beautiful presentation full of details, data and charts. They clarified the idea about the sustainable development and the consequences of not using the natural resources wisely. It talked about how unplanned activities may lead to destruction of the whole civilization. The poem that was presented at the end o...

Post class reflection (August 5)

  It was a cloudy Wednesday and our ENGT class started at 1 pm.   Enjoying sweet breeze that passes by my window almost every day at noon I was discovering "diamante" style of poem which our instructor Mr. Duwadi sir introduced. To be frank I don’t have many ideas about format of poem in English literature but discovering new things is my favorite part of this class. Here is my own version of diamante poem:   Ancient Primordial Foregone Hunting Surviving Fighting Civilization Culture Economy Science Inventing Empowering Composing Medicine Comfort Space Modern Following the diamante format, presentation part took over. The first group was Chandan Mahato's and Siris Mainali's group in which they discussed about memo-writing. Memo writing was something we well discussed in previous semester so it was easy to understand what my friends were presenting. Their presentation topic was followed by "The four tusk elephant" which was presented by Nisc...
