Reflecting on the lesson #1 This lesson is about teaching winter to students with severe special needs.

Elie Wiesel once wrote‚ “For the dead and the living‚ we must bear witness”. This quote rings true in our world full of atrocities‚ past and present. Elie Wiesel’s true narrative‚ Night‚ is an acclaimed description of his trials through the cruelties of the Holocaust. Within the story‚ Wiesel accounted many abominations that happened daily to thousands of Jews at the hands of the Nazis. I couldn’t help but contemplate a few themes that played out‚ as I read the book‚ and have a few of my own epiphanies

During the "Thought Police vs. Outer Party" game‚ I learned the importance of the value of independence and freedom. Previous to playing the game‚ I would consistently wear whatever I wanted‚ I would carry my books whatever way I wanted to‚ and I was allowed to live my own life. But the game gave me a new perspective‚ not only on Winston and his hardships‚ but on my peers. While engaged in the game‚ due to the secrecy developed within the tension of ignorance‚ I felt paranoid and oppressed. Because

behaviorism field of psychology. I find this field makes the most sense to me. Behaviorism is the study of actual observable behaviors which seems to me to be the most “tangible” form of psychology. John B Watson asked why we can’t apply to human behavior study the same tools used to study animals (Psychology 10th Edition‚ Dennis Coon ‚ 2006.)
