I really like Mr. Lozenski's idea of teachers and educators needing to take that leap toward new ways of teaching and working, in our education system. As times change, so should our ways of teaching students.
I am here from my Teaching Secondary School Literature class and I have to say that this is very mind opening; the education system is so limited and conformed that we need different alternatives to help those who are not connecting with the traditional classroom.
Thank you Brian for this insight. The education system has not restructured in a major way since industrialisation. We need to rethink the foundation and purpose...
Oh my God I am the student in contexts to this story I finished high school with 1.5 GPA and achieved the highest grade mark of A & B less than six times out of 63 class credits of four-year of high school. 7 years after graduating high school I attended college, got my bachelor and two masters degree along with 10 professional certifications in my field. High school was never relevant or relative to me in anyway. nowadays I give advice to kids in high school whenever I get the chance. I tell them they to seek understand so they could be understood. And the education system is the opposite of that.
Every country of the world should give importance on bringing cultural context and self identity in education system. Providing platform for self identity in education system is important.
ENGL 4338: seeing this ted talk, it made me really open my eyes and realize that educators really do have a great part in their student’s life. An educator’s persona will really reflect on their style of teaching and they should really be involving their students as much as they can to make their experience in school as best as they can.
very informative, i think the structure of education today needs to be reassessed to the point where changes are made for students to feel like they are a part of a system which in turn provides the chance to acquire knowledge and skills from a different perspective...
ENGL 4338: Brian makes an excellent point when he points out that teacher have set their methods in a tradition old way, but it's important to make sure that teachers are changing and adapting to new and hopefully helpful teaching methods. He also shines light on the importance of offering more alternative activities or classes that can be beneficial for the students in the long run. Overall, Brian is a skilled speaker and I hope we can all be that change that he is asking for.
ENGL 4338: In another class, I was reading about how many teachers refuse to believe that the way the curriculum works is flawed because it has worked for years but in this video, he really put it into perspective for me. He talks about how teachers should have more of a progressive set of values going into teaching so that they can assess what it is they can improve not only in their content but in their way of teaching as well.
ENGL 4338: I really like this video and the suggestions it makes, I have never been good at math, and some of the things he mentioned about how the school system treats struggling students really hit home in that regard.
ENGL 4338: What an excellent presentation, everything he said was on point and really got me thinking. It is important that teachers take home cultures into consideration. Sometimes, no matter how intellectual a student can be, their values or expectations are not on school because that is what they have grown up to think. This is why teachers must be willing to help every single one of their students, especially the most vulnerable ones.
ENGL 4338: The reason why I enjoyed this video was that it reminded me of my younger sister. An intelligent (in many aspects) girl who acknowledges that school just wasn't for her. Whereas I function in a traditional classroom, she thrives on the outside.
ENGL 4338: I really liked how he talked about the Education system and involving self-identity and culture. How he mentioned that schools should try to accommodate with students needs that need that extra help, instead of teaching all the students with the same teaching techniques. I really liked that, because every student has different learning styles.
Maria Salmon-ENGL 4338: I completely resonate with several of the points brought up in this video. Back in high school and even prior to that, I struggled in some subjects and found myself feeling lost or as though school just wasn’t for me. Now that I’m older and am preparing to become an educator, it is much more clear to me how flawed the education system is and how it has failed many students, similar to James. As a future educator, I want to be part of the change that helps these students feel heard and included in the classroom. I want my future students to feel valid and know their education is valued.
ENGL 4338: I was very inspired by this video and with this guidance I’m sure it will help me when I do become an educator. It is very vital that teachers take into consideration the cultures and learning methods of the students.
ENGL 4338 Fall 2021: This TEDX Talk given by Brian Lozenski was inspiring and packed with personal teaching testimony. This talk brings the light and awareness to the important conversation of students and their resistance to the classical education model or of school.
Hi this is Alexa from ENGL 4338, and this story inspired me, because students can really benefit from cultural studies because it relates to them personally.
ENGL 4338 Dr. Bowles: I enjoyed this video because you can clearly see the passion this teacher has for wanting to help all students. Not every student is fortunate to be brought up in a household that values education, and for those students who aren't afforded that privilege, (and think school is a waste of time), finding an alternative way for them to want to learn is something I think many students would benefit from.
ENGL 4338: I liked how Lozenski mentioned how we don't really retain what we "learn" in school. How many times, when we were in middle school or high school, did we ask ourselves "why do we have to learn this, we won't need this when we're older"?
ENGL4338: Lozenski highlights the biggest problem with our standardized curriculum in his talk, and provides an eye-opening view for how to reignite personalized, motivated learning. The emphasis on identity in education is one I am familiar with, and it's wonderful to see more people becoming aware of the children failing not as a result of their own inability, but as a result of a fundamentally neglectful curriculum.
ENGL 4338: I am happy to see that I wasn't wrong thinking the education system has been heading in the wrong direction over the past years and which is why I hope to an educator one day to try and lead it to the right path. A place where a student finds them understood
ENGL 4338, I was exactly like james at a young age. I always felt that way as a child until 7th grade because i was little slow and i felt limited. This video was just a reminder that every student learns differently so there should be more than one technique with the traditional classroom model. Offering more alternatives is a great start for struggling students for them to be able to move forward.
ENGL 4338: I had not thought about the classroom or education system in this way. It is definitely eye-opening and something should watch before attempting to help struggling students.
ENGL 4338-91L (Fall 2020): Excellent points Brian brings up. He mentions the word "inclusive" and I think that is the main goal and objective the education system needs to focus on. A more inclusive system that allows for all cultural/diverse backgrounds to be shared and discussed.
ENGL 4338- 90L (Valezka Cantu): As a child, I was similar to James in a way that I never felt like I was good enough in School and would always have my grades compared to others because of my low scores. It is important that teachers try their best to help each student so no one will feel left out when it comes to education because everyone is smart in their own way. This video is amazing because it demonstrates that there are so many alternatives when it comes to teaching in order to help every single student be successful.
ENGL 4338-90L: This is such an interesting perspective that I had never thought about. This is such an important topic to be aware of as a future educator.
ENGL 4338-91L: I really enjoyed watching this video because as a teacher you will come across many different students. It is important to make your students feel comfortable, motivated, and encouraged. You will be able to do this by getting to know your students and their backgrounds. I really enjoyed watching the points that Brian Lozenski.
ENGL 4338: I 100% agree with Lozenski. It hits home for me because I, like his student James, had the same experience. I think he is very passionate about helping students because he understands what they go through and how tough it is to stay motivated at that age. He makes incredible points and it is obvious that every mind is an entirely different world. It is important that we understand that because not every child learns the same way/ is interested in the same things.
ENGL 4338: Brian Lozenski brings in some interesting points. It would be better for students if teacher started changing from a focus of Knowledge acquisition to more ways of participating. This would benefit many students who do not believe they are meant to have a better education.
Engl 4338: I get where he is coming from a standard teaching method will somehow get the students to simply pass. It is up to those who teach I believe to provide different ways for the students to not just learn but understand and truly acquire knowledge.
ENGL 4338: This was a great video and did a great job highlighting the problems faced in the education system which is that many students fall through the cracks and the system allows it. By finding ways to reach out to those students and engage them with relevant content and knowledge, school systems will be able to reach all students especially those who are the most vulnerable.
ENGl 4338: This TedTalk is very eye opening when it comes to the education system. Educator's need to realize their influence on their students because their curriculum might be limited to the thoughts of generations before them. It is up to educators now to make those small changes into a better education system for all.
ENGL 4338: I really liked this video because I have always thought that catering to each student as an individual is so important because not all students have the same learning abilities. Although students may be on the same level, they may need to learn the same subject a different way in order to understand.
ENGL 4338 (Brandy Saavedra) The way Lozenski touches on cultural context and self-identity usages in the classroom as a way for not only student motivation but of the student's transfer of knowledge is connected to some of the ideas of translingualism. I believe it is key to be aware of the similarities because once leaving the monolingustic ideology and entering one where the intergration of culture and identity gets involved, so do the students.
ENGL-4338-90L: Bringing cultural relevance to the classroom makes a huge difference in the student's engagement. I believe this missing component in the educational system in the United States is what is causing a major discrepancy between mainstream and diverse learners.
The current mission statement is provide instruction, exams and grades. This means mission accomplished for a student who receives all failing grades. If the goal was acquiring knowledge then a student with a test grade of 60% would be congratulated and informed that the teacher and student will together to learn the remaining 40%, however, this never happens. This is a better mission statement: teach students to 1)love learning, 2)become indepedent, self-reliant learners with critical thinking skills, 3) acquire knowledge and skills. In cases like James, the best action is to take James out of the classroom, and encourage his independent learning skills.
ENGL 4338: I thought it was admirable to see that Lozenski was able to distinguish the reason for James' resistance: the structure of his education and not specifically the content/teaching. I have never thought about how the structure of the education system could turn off students and think we should look into different methods such as ecological education.
The need of the hour is student centered teaching. The speaker very effectively focuses on youth participatory and positions youth as agents of societal transformation.
ENGL 4338: The education system changes as the years go by. Everyone has different experiences where they come from. Many are fortunate and others not so much. Just because those situations vary doesn’t mean that every person isn’t capable of reaching their intellectual potential/development. Suppression and resistance of educators/the education system really affect students in their love for school. Being more open to various ways of instruction, participation, and helping students find their groove in school can make a big change.
ENGL-4338: I think that this could be a great way to help students who think that school is not for them. I feel that if we really want for students to succeed and feel like they belong then we need to make changes to help them belong and feel like school in this case is for them. Times and students are changing, so it's important that schools change with them.
ENGL 4338 course. The setting of a classroom already has the students in a controlled setting, and EXPECTING them to learn in the way you teach. Of course not everyone will learn or retain information the same way. He mentioned when the bell goes off to rotate into the next classroom, it is an immediate pause, stop what you are doing and move on. "This just is not for me" didn't necessarily mean school wasn't for him, could have been how the material is presented, and what kind of learner the person is. In my opinion, doing what is necessary to cater to a student so that they do learn in the classroom in crucial to the success of the student. Letting them participate perhaps in a different setting could change the way they focus, learn, etc. The concept of, "double down" for the student since they aren't comprehending math, enroll them in a secondary math isn't going to help the student in any way, in fact will worsen or shut them down. Looking back on the structure of changing class periods and moving on to the next subject really didn't give much time to digest information.
Why does it take someone else to fund it? Why not send your kids to a private school if you dont like the education provided in public schools? I think looking to someone else to change the situation is half the problem. The main morals and education comes from parents.
ENGL 4338: Just like the generations change and new technologies develop, the school/education system changing and developing with these generations is very important to make sure the students are able to relate and be engaged in their educational journey.
ENGL-4338-90: Understanding that every student is different and therefore is receptive to different interactions and methods of learning is the first step to developing effective teaching models designed to resonate with all students.
4338.01R: I think educational systems, like any other type of system, political, etc. has a moment in its existence when it needs to be re-evaluated and see where it's working and where it's not and make those changes. But also, lawmakers who have never set foot in a school or classroom since attending as students themselves need to listen to the people conducting researches and studies and evaluating better methods of teaching different groups of students.
ENGL 4338-91L: I for one strongly agree that curriculums should include texts that will help students have a grasp on their identity. Students in the school system are taught as teachers bank the information into them without no question. Education should be though-provoking and relevant to them. This can cause students to lose interest and make them believe they are not smart enough. But that is not true at all, students are good at something.
ENGL 4338-90L: Great motivational video, I liked the way that he introduced the new options (avenues) of teaching instead of just using the traditional model.
ENGL 4338: Josue Tapia. While the notion that schools are tailored to one specific student type is, in my opinion, more divisive than helpful, it does help to know that educators are striving to work for the future of their students, down to the most helpless and struggling and up to the top pupils.
ENGL 4338 90L: Students are diverse learners, therefore we must find new and innovative ways to enhance student understanding. Change the education system from focusing on students needs rather than the standard.
ENGL 4338 (Fall 2020): The idea that the school system is a one size fits all is a terrible misconception and I think going or not going to school should not be the deciding factor on your learning abilities. Going to school is not an identity but being a learner, regardless of how is part of your identity.
The school curriculum is very focused on things such as the standardized tests, yet school should be a place where students are able to actually learn about things. It's actually a problem nowadays in which students just memorize certain things for a test, and afterwards just forget about them. School curriculum is very focused on certain things, and in this video an example was history. Not all of the important history events are taught in school, just the basic ones that revolve around white people. Different achievements by minority races aren't as highlighted in school. This is just one example of many.
English 4338: I think the structure of school is in a dire need of change. It's current state is very limited and closed off to the open multicultural environment that it needs to be in order to meet the needs of its diverse students.
I really like Mr. Lozenski's idea of teachers and educators needing to take that leap toward new ways of teaching and working, in our education system. As times change, so should our ways of teaching students.
I am here from my Teaching Secondary School Literature class and I have to say that this is very mind opening; the education system is so limited and conformed that we need different alternatives to help those who are not connecting with the traditional classroom.

If teachers give adequate importance to cultural context and specific needs of students, then the learning process could be made truly joyful.

Engl: 4338 I really appreciate the points he made. It also shows you why it’s important for students to be involved
Along with knowledge acquisition the ways of participating is also very important to bring cultural context and self identity into education
Bringing Cultural Context and Self-Identity into Education very interesting and informative session. Thank you very much.
ENGL 4338: The reason why I enjoyed this video was that it reminded me of my younger sister. An intelligent (in many aspects) girl who acknowledges that school just wasn't for her. Whereas I function in a traditional classroom, she thrives on the outside.

ENGL 4338-91L (Fall 2020):
Excellent points Brian brings up. He mentions the word "inclusive" and I think that is the main goal and objective the education system needs to focus on. A more inclusive system that allows for all cultural/diverse backgrounds to be shared and discussed.
Culture contex is imp factor in classroom. Focused points discussed. Thanks sir

Thank You for sharing your Valuable Knowledge.
Very good video showing the correlation between subjective aspects and education.
बहुत ही उपयोगी जानकारी संस्कृति और शिक्षा के बारे में।
thanks for this session
4338 - A big takeaway was how the student felt school "wasn't for him" and the question of how teachers can help these students.
The talk was excellent and to the point.
Thank You

Nice talk on Self-Identity into Education
very cool talk. I agree 100%. We need some politicians with the gumption to fund these changes.
Why does it take someone else to fund it? Why not send your kids to a private school if you dont like the education provided in public schools? I think looking to someone else to change the situation is half the problem. The main morals and education comes from parents.

Students in the school system are taught as teachers bank the information into them without no question. Education should be though-provoking and relevant to them. This can cause students to lose interest and make them believe they are not smart enough. But that is not true at all, students are good at something.
very interesting perspective of teaching: cultural context
very informative and interesting session
ENGL 4338-90L: Great motivational video, I liked the way that he introduced the new options (avenues) of teaching instead of just using the traditional model.
beautifully explained the teaching responsibility
extremely informative
ENGL 4338: Josue Tapia. While the notion that schools are tailored to one specific student type is, in my opinion, more divisive than helpful, it does help to know that educators are striving to work for the future of their students, down to the most helpless and struggling and up to the top pupils.
ENGL 4338 90L: Students are diverse learners, therefore we must find new and innovative ways to enhance student understanding. Change the education system from focusing on students needs rather than the standard.
Greetings from Denmark and Roskilde University ... Great presentation. Thank you!
ENGL 4338 (Fall 2020): The idea that the school system is a one size fits all is a terrible misconception and I think going or not going to school should not be the deciding factor on your learning abilities. Going to school is not an identity but being a learner, regardless of how is part of your identity.
VERY INFORMATIVE
Session on Important factor- Cultural context.
Very interesting perspective teaching system
very interesting to listen...
The school curriculum is very focused on things such as the standardized tests, yet school should be a place where students are able to actually learn about things. It's actually a problem nowadays in which students just memorize certain things for a test, and afterwards just forget about them. School curriculum is very focused on certain things, and in this video an example was history. Not all of the important history events are taught in school, just the basic ones that revolve around white people. Different achievements by minority races aren't as highlighted in school. This is just one example of many.
Never thought of such a perspective
nice presentation sir
ENGL 4338: The traditional model can only go so far. Non-traditional can be so much better than the original model.
English 4338: I think the structure of school is in a dire need of change. It's current state is very limited and closed off to the open multicultural environment that it needs to be in order to meet the needs of its diverse students.
