AN ECOLOGICAL IDEA

Now, everyone perceives problems related to pollution. And this is the reason why there are many ideas about recycling, saving waste and reducing energy consumption. Some people give tips for reusing some types of products and other people share their cars or invent things to try to reduce the impact of their activities.

Therefore, this post is dedicated to talking about an idea that I had recently.

AN ECOLOGICAL IDEA

People are often seen on their bikes or, recently, electric bikes, scooters, or other types of eco-friendly vehicles. And I think that seeing it, everyone has thought of buying a similar mobile. But after the moment, they retract because they believe that city traffic is dangerous for motorcycles, bicycles and other types of light vehicles.

I know, because I thought about it many times before buying my bike. And now, I enjoy going to work, but I recognize that my car is safer. But then how can we make our streets safer? Reduction in the number of cars.

And well, this is the idea...

First step. The government should encourage people to use these types of vehicles. So if the government provides financial remuneration to people who use these types of vehicles, more people will want to use them. And then they will discover other benefits such as health and the opportunity to save money, because fuel costs more and more.

Second step. The government needs to install more preferential roads and, if necessary, assign some kind of schedule to use some important roads only with ecological vehicles.

Finally, I think that, with this tactic, day by day people will use the car less to use scooters, bicycles or any ecological vehicle.

BUSSINES ARE BUSSINES - AN EDUCATION REFLECTION

Have you ever negotiated with your students?

As you know, sometimes I think about some problems.

This time, I meditated on negotiation, negotiation with my students.

Many times I have heard colleagues talk about problems with concepts such as negotiations or self-assessments in the educational process. And it is common to hear that students are immature to decide or select the correct option to obtain the best gratification in the future.

But...

I have never heard of how we could teach to select the best option, thinking beyond the immediate objectives.

And now I think that the best option we can find is to produce the correct scenarios to make decisions without something of value for the students.

For example, I consider it a serious mistake to generate a self-assessment and then add that grade to the final grade.

Students need the teacher to make observations, tell perspectives and mention spaces of opportunity. The point is that if the teacher omits the possibility of producing self-knowledge, then the teacher cannot despair of her students.

Now then, colleagues... It is necessary to produce the ideal scenarios to produce mature self-assessments, without fear of being judged or losing qualification.
