ASP Assignment Class Discussion

We discuss about following theme in 4.27 class.


1. "In discussion, should we shock someone who don't speak their opinion?"
All members of my group disagreed with this opinion. This is because it is bad to compel someone who don't speak their opinions to speak them by punishment. We thought that in discussion, it is very important to speak our opinions voluntarily. Otherwise, we can't discuss vitally and thoughtfully. Compulsory discussion isn't benefit. So, we should think the different way ,not punishment, that makes silent people speak voluntarily.

2. "In the Japan, 50% of population is women, why are women who work in government only 10%?"
In our group, we thought that women who work in government are only 10%, because, institution of the past that women are weaker than men remain still. In the past, women didn't have the right for election. But society should be equality for both men and women. So, we should make environment that women can work comfortably to change this situation.

I think that it is important that everybody cooperates and join discussion actively. In example of bad discussion, everybody are passive for discussion, for example, someone don't listen to the other people's opinions and looks the other way and does different works. There are people who don't concentrate on discussion. I think that speaker's opinions are not treasured though speakers speak their opinions hardly. So, this discussion is bored and not benefit.


While in example of good discussion, everybody are active for discussion, so this discussion is very benefit. They listen to the other people's opinion steadily and response them. All people speak their opinions, and this discussion is equal because, reader also lead discussion well. So, they can discuss smoothly. I think this discussion is very good , and I want to became to discuss like this.


I find it very important that in discussion, everybody speaks actively and cooperates, not depend on other people. If we do this, our discussion will be very benefit. So I think that I try to join discussion actively.

ARW Essay 1

The thesis statement I've chosen for essay 1 is the following: The most important thing of academic learning is to motivate ourselve. This is because motivating ourselves lead to setting our goals, and we can step up. If we don't motivate ourselves, we will feel that academic learning is tiring and hard and we will set low level goals. So, we will not improve ourselves.

According to Meiland, a "good" college teachers present information in the following way. In general, they present some information, in the sense of "what is currently believed." However, they also spend much time talking about the basis on which this information is currently believed. So, they make their students discuss and examaine the basis of current beliefs. They does'nt treat material as unchanging fact. They treat it as beliefs or conclusions that have been reached on the basis of investigations. They want their students to learn new types of intellectual work are required at the college level to do these things.

I agree with these way. Because I think that for college students to learn what is currently believed is very important. In the future, they have to consider imformations is currently believed. So, they should do this whe they are college students.
