Learning is essential in our lives because it enables an individual to gain the essential skills, information, and knowledge to attain their defined goals. We need to learn more and devise workarounds to get to know ourselves and what we are capable of. These will also help us grow and learn more about ourselves, allowing us to accomplish many great things in life.
The learning discoveries
that I gained with all the issues and concerns in our lives and our
surroundings are, first, knowing myself, my strengths and weaknesses, goals and
aspirations trigger my brain to explore and learn more. A student like me can
do more to acquire knowledge and improve myself. It also helps me identify my
skills and abilities and make the right decisions in life. Second, being aware
of what’s happening in society can help me as a student cope and think of ways
to contribute to problem-solving. Third, due to the effects of the pandemic on
education, I also became more responsible and resourceful in finding ways to
learn, like researching and watching to gain information. Fourth, I also
realized that the more knowledge we have, the more compassionate we become, and
we can also improve our coping ability. Fifth, communication is a huge factor
in learning. As a student, I need to communicate with others because it makes
learning easier. It expands my learning and strengthens my connection to my
teachers and the people around me, which creates an overall positive experience
and impact. Lastly, digital literacy is essential in learning. We should learn
to use technology because it’s the new normal. It also helps us engage with the
teaching and learning process to meet our needs and achieve our potential as
students.
Challenges in mental health
because of what’s happening in society are some of the things that I
encountered as a student. I need to be strong, open-minded, and resourceful to
overcome the crisis in education. Another one is that the mode of learning
nowadays affects not only me as a student but also my family and teachers.
Without face-to-face interaction, the teachers can’t discuss and explain the
lessons well, and not all parents are capable of teaching their children. Thus,
students like me have difficulties understanding and answering some of the
modules. A poor internet connection was also a problem that I encountered. I
can’t work or study well, and it hinders me from finishing my modules faster.
That’s why many students are affected by mental health problems that cause them
to drop their studies or worse, commit suicide. Also, distraction is one of the
problems. Some of these are family members watching TV while I’m studying,
playing loud music, and a noisy environment like children playing, neighbors
chatting on the street, and motorcycles passing by.
To address these challenges
that I encountered, I will utilize the power of communication. I should
communicate with my teachers, family, friends, and classmates to ask for help
or support if I need it to avoid depression, which threatens my mental health.
Another one is being digital literate by improving my skills in using gadgets
for learning. To improve my learning, I must be aware of the bad and good
effects of technology and its useful and not-useful applications. I must also
concentrate and manage my time well to overcome distractions. Being patient is
also needed. I should understand that what is happening now affects not only me
but also others, and lastly, I am responsible for studying and answering the
modules given to me.
