The start of an experiment<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Increasing areas of the right of choice application fosters the rise of man’s and particularly learner’s self-estimation and consolidation of his\/her willingness to collaborate. Therefore, embracing the enforcement of our High School learners’ right to choose their teachers, I decided to go further and grant the right of choice to my sixth grade learners too. I introduced them two courses: History and Children’s History in the Context of the World History. The learners made their choice after having discussed it with their parents and friends. I also suggested that they should justify their choice in written form. Here are some of their justifications:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mkrtchyan Elen: “I have chosen Children’s World History <\/em>because interesting research work, educational trips and a possibility to enrich my knowledge are included in this course.” <\/p>\n\n\n\n Khachatryan Arshil:”I studied the two courses and chose Children’s World History <\/em>because, first of all, I am a child. Unlike the History<\/em> course here the system of assessment is clear and precise. The score is even mentioned in percents. I have also noticed that educational trips are intended for all the year round. It is also more interesting.” <\/p>\n\n\n\n Gharibyan Davit: “I have chosen Children’s World History <\/em>because it is interesting for me to lear how children in Egypt, France and other countries were brought up. I want to learn how they were brought up in Stone Age and what they were engaged in. I want to find out what they drew on the cave walls with as they didn’t have necessary tools. I also want to find out some other things, therefore, I I have chosen Children’s World History.” <\/p>\n\n\n\n Harutyunyan Davit: “I have chosen Children’s World History <\/em>because I have always wanted to find out what children did, what they were busy with several thousand years ago.” <\/p>\n\n\n\n Vardumyan Nane: “I have chosen Children’s World History <\/em>because it interests me more. I want to study the history of my peers.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n Avagyan Astghik: “First of all, children’s life in ancient times sounds interesting. I wonder what games they played, how they lived. I wonder if children made friends with one another. What did they learn from their parents? What did they do in their spare time, and finally, how did they live?”<\/p>\n\n\n\n Shahnazaryan Davit: “I have chosen History <\/em>because it is interesting for me to know how people lived and how developed they were, what wars and battles took place in different countries.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n Aghabekyan Gor: “I have chosen History <\/em>because I want to lfind earn more things about people. I also want to learn about dinosaurs, pyramids, Gods and the Universe.” <\/p>\n\n\n\n Michaeli Mark: “I am choosing Children’s World History <\/em>because I like educational projects and going on educational trips. I also wonder what children did in ancient times.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n Hairiyan Sergey: “I looked through the two courses. One of them is History <\/em>and the other is Children’s World History. <\/em>I chose History. <\/em>I agree that Cildren’s World History is more interesting but it is aonly about children, whereas, studying History we pay attention to everything. Everybody tells me that Children’s World History <\/em>is easier, but actually there isn”t anything difficult or easy. It depends on whether you want to study it or not.” <\/p>\n\n\n\n \u00a0As an unknown philosopher said: “Man enjoys freedom, if he is the slave of his chosen course.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n Translator: Yura Ganjalyan<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The start of an experiment Increasing areas of the right of choice application fosters the rise of man’s and particularly learner’s self-estimation and consolidation of his\/her willingness to collaborate.
