Education

During the past few years, numerous parents worldwide have wanted their children to do organized activities in during their spare time. In addition, the students are stressed because they don’t get to do their hobby even it is their rest time. Personally, I agree with how people or guardians should let the kids do their leisure activities or work on anything that they like during their relax time. In this essay I will explain about the children activities developing and improving them both physically and emotionally.




First, it is my belief that the kids should be able to do whatever they want during their free time, because this helps them to create and develop their creativity and other skills. For example, if they like to play Lego buildings, it will help them to develop their architectural design skills which could be used in the future. Furthermore, this would keep them relax and it is also a time for them to recover their usage of their brain while earning the knowledges from the school education system. This is very important for kids this age because it is the part where their brain is developing the fastest in their life. Also, referring to the ideology of “Learn Hard, Play hard”, this is true because we both earn experience and skills from their leisure activities.



Second, I think that letting the kids do whatever they want during their free time is also improving them physically. For example, if the children go out to exercise or play sports. This helps build up their health or if they get injured, they also earn the experience of pain and would make them stronger and ready for the harsh world in the future. Additionally, if they play a team sport this builds up confidence, teamwork, and soft skills. These skills are very significant for them when they are learning or working in the future. This gives them the habit of not giving up and the sportsmanship to help them be more of a good citizen.




In conclusion, numerous parents worldwide have wanted their children to do organized activities in during their spare time. This is why I believe that we should let the children do their favorite activities in their spare time. Moreover, this helps the children
to gain skills and experience in these activities that are crucial for their life in the future. I have explained the reasons to support my opinion in the essay.

Industrialization- Working class

 These are the actions taken to improve the working conditions of the worker. Firstly, Socialist parties (Professional Bourgeoisie) formed socialist parties to advocate for the working class. They also pressured the governments to form laws to improve the working conditions for workers. Secondly, the Knights of Labor demanded better working conditions for workers. They also organized strikes or protests, which were often violently suppressed by authorities. Thirdly, Karl Marx urged workers around the world to start a revolution to overthrow Capitalism. Lastly, Social laws in the United Kingdom (19th century) about kids' education, working limits, and minimum wage. These are the actions taken to improve the working conditions of the worker.

These are the state interventions in opposition to workers’ demands. Firstly, the authorities often violently suppressed the Knights of Labor for demanding better working conditions for workers. The Knights of Labor organized strikes and this union started in 1868 in the United States. Secondly, the Miners’ strike in 1893, the governments forbid strikes because they think that these strikes will obstruct the right of entrepreneurs to gain a profit. They intervene by sending police to suppress the miners that come to the strike. These are the state interventions in opposition to workers’ demands.

Here are the state interventions in support of workers’ demands. Firstly, Social laws were adopted in the United Kingdom in the 19th century. They were adopted during the years 1801-1910. In 1801, children under the age of 8 could not work. In 1833, the working hours were limited to 80 hours per week for teenagers under 18 years old and 48 hours per week for juveniles under 13 years old. In 1876, elementary schools were required and in 1990 the minimum wage was introduced. Secondly, the government of Germany applies public health insurance and other social insurance, such as help for workers who are too old to work. Here are the state interventions in support of workers’ demands.

Abstract Your Mind: Lucid Dream

 I would like to name this work of art “Lucid Dreams” because it is my dream to take a photo of a tree with a nice space and the northern light background that makes you feel like you are creating your dream. Lucid can also have a meaning of Luminous or Bright light. I created this work of art by taking a photo of a normal tree in the garden. Then, I sketched the tree with a pencil to make it a representational artwork of the tree. Next, I played around with the elements of art to create an abstract artwork inspired by my sketch. Lastly, I created the abstract artwork with Acrylic paint (for the different colors) and chalk (for the texture) in the style of Action painting originally created by Jackson Pollock. The skill I learned while creating this was Speed is the key to success. For example, when I was doing the action painting part, the speed of flicking my wrist is very important because if it was too fast it would go all over the table and if it was too slow not enough paint would go onto the paper. My favorite part was the tree trunk because it looks like space. I also liked the two Lion Dance next to the tree trunk because it was Chinese New Year so I did that.

Letter To New Teacher

Dear Ms. Cherie,
      Hello. I’m Chayo and I’m from Bangkok, the capital of Thailand. I have been trying to fly abroad for the last 3 years but it has been unsuccessful. My parents wanted me to gain experience from another school.

Finally, I am back to the place where I intended to study. I will be in your class for the rest of this academic year, so I thought I’d write to tell you

a bit about myself. I’m 13 years old and I have one brother.

My hobbies are running and biking in my village. I also like to edit videos and play soccer.

My English level is proficient to communicate with different accents

such as American, British, Irish, South African, South American,

and Russian. The most difficult accent for me to understand is Russian English.

I am really good at using my imagination to do my homework.

However, I want to improve on my comprehension skills and creative writing.

I enjoy working individually; however, I am used to working in groups with different

learning styles and coping with the behavior of teammates.

The most difficult thing for me is to convince them to work hard because

I was born in an era of a strawberry generation in which most of us are overprotected

by family prosperity and like to do what we want at all times.
  I would like to tell you about my learning style.

After doing the survey, I discovered that I am a Tactile learner. The score of tactile is dominant which is 50% of the overall score.

Some of the things I like to do when learning are holding things in my hand,

touching my school shirt’s button whenever I want to concentrate on something.

Also, a clear goal has to be stated in order for me to dedicate full effort to the right thing.

Although my auditory is the lowest score, I would like to listen to music while working to

achieve the best performance because earbuds help to stimulate my brain.

The thing that I can do to improve my learning is to avoid sitting on an uncomfortable

seat and room temperature. To keep away from interacting with someone who just speaks

without any action tremendously helps me to generate good work.

I find it almost impossible to work with people that use feeling rather than logic.

In the case that I have no choice, I have to sacrifice good work to learn

human behavior instead.

I look forward to studying with you. I can’t wait to learn more from you.
Best regards,
Chayo

Traditional and Modern Chinese Lantern: Reduce Light Pollutions

     The Lantern Festival may have originated during the Han era (206 BCE to 220 CE), when Buddhist monks would burn lanterns in honor of the Buddha on the 15th day of the lunar year. Later, the ceremony was embraced by the wider population and expanded throughout China and other regions of Asia. 

A legend about the festival's origins talks of the Chinese Emperor (You Di) becoming enraged at a village for slaughtering his goose. He intended to burn down the town, but he was foiled by a fairy who urged the inhabitants to light lanterns across the town on the scheduled day of doom. Because of all the brightness, the emperor imagined the town was already engulfed in flames. 

The town was spared, and in gratitude, The inhabitants have continued to memorialize the incident by waving colorful lanterns across the town on an annual basis.

During Chinese New year festival, the China town especially my hometown, Nakon Sawan province about 250 km north of Bangkok, decorates the whole town with Red Chinese lanterns. Nowadays the Chinese lantern is adapted to suit the modern lifestyle but remaining the traditional beauty. The incandescent lamp is used because it is cheap and its color looks like candle light however it creates a lot of light pollutions.

1. Too much light shine up to the sky and destroy the astronomical view

2. Too much glare to distrain people’s eyes

3.  Waste Energy

Materials:

Chinese Lantern

60 watts Incandescent Lamp (existing used)

5 watts LED Warm light bulb ( to save energy while maintaining the same illumination level as 60 watts Incandescent lamp)

Electric Wire and lamp socket

Translucent paper ( put at the bottom part and wrap around the light bulb to reduce glare)

Black poster paper ( cover on top to reduce the light to shine up to the sky and destroy the astronomical view and also to compensate the light level that was reduced due to glare reduction solution)

Tools:

Lux meter (to measure the illumination)

Power meter (to measure power taken by lamps)

Thermometer (to measure the ambient temperature impacted by lamps)

1. More Downlight less uplight

Illumination level Increased from 10 Lux to 15 Lux (improved 50%)

2. Reduce Glare

3. Save Energy, Reduce Heat, Maintain the Traditional Beauty

Power from 60 watts (0.06 kW) to 5 watts (0.00kW)

( couldn’t be seen at 3rd decimal because the power meter has too large to scale).

The ambient temperature is reduced from 38.2 celsius to 30.5 celsius to reduce heat to surrounding.

Conclusion

According to the test results, my design was a clear solution to solve those light pollution problems.

Limitations

More expensive for the LED compared to incandescent lamp so a lot of companies may not care about light pollution.

Color of the LED lamp doesn’t mirror the candle light perfectly.

It doesn’t impact that much for the daily light pollution because it is just the festivals, however it’s a strong first step that solves light pollution and in the future it should be able to apply to the daily applications.

The Outsiders:From Dusk Till Dawn

My connection to the Outsiders is when Ponyboy was talking to Cherry at the drive-in, the quote in chapter 3 that Cherry said “if I see you in the hall at school or someplace and don’t say hi, well, it’s not personal or anything.” This scene foreshadows my experience meeting a girl, but she acts in a rejecting way and doesn’t want to talk to you when it is out of her comfort zone.

I connect to this passage because I have the same experience with talking to a girl who acted very kind at school. She texted me on the weekends and asked me to help her with homework, fashion, and other opinions. When I met her at a shopping mall, she ignored me and after that, we texted again and seemed like nothing happened. This habit is the same as Cherry’s habit of not talking to Ponyboy at school. 

My connection helps me understand more about the Outsiders by there is more than one girl that behaves like this. I felt a bit of a waste of time in the beginning. When I saw this scene, I remembered my experience. I rethink that it was a lesson learned. I hope that it will not happen to me again. I will not be a power bank to anyone, at least I should be a mobile phone even if it could be replaced by the new model in the future.

From Dusk Till Dawn.

delicious smell with the boiling steamed smoke

I am from a T-shirt with short pants with slippers would be my go-to style

I am from Chinese ancestors both my mom and dad sides, Hakka and Tae Chew tribe

I am from straightforward, introverts, no friends but got families

I am from the undercut and texturized crop haircut style

I am from never stopped trying and learning but he is already gone to heaven

        I am from staying home, go to grandma’s house, Nakhon Sawan, and Central Pinklao the places I             go to almost every holiday

I am from price worth Chinese products but when learning in school the price increases

I am from being most thinkers in my family

I am from the best hobby of watching movies
