No Red Pill No Blue Pill

   I enjoyed reading the writing. It was written somewhat like a poem in the beginning I thought.My opinion in whats written is that in some cases there are students with no motivation whats so ever. I don't completely understand why this happens because when it does those students don't seem to find motivation to do anything else either. Is it because they aren't digging deep enough to fully understand and think about the concept. Or are they too lazy and carefree to think about something and want to learn about it. My thoughts are that she is right in some cases. In classes there may be students who don't want to learn but in that same class there are some students who do want to learn. However because there are students who lack motivation the teacher becomes disappointed and starts losing their motivation to teach. That is terrible because there are students who want to learn and if the teacher begins to lose motivation to teach those students may lose their motivation to learn. My thoughts on what's written is that in some cases today children lose motivation they stop questioning them selves about everything. Children lose their motivation because the answer to everything is right at their fingertips. Back before the internet was created kids were so motivated to learn the questioned themselves, looked for answers in books asked their parents did whatever but the made sure to answer that question. Today all you need to do is to look it up online it's so easy. However children still don't question themselves they don't look up things. They are using technology in a way that it will only destroy your mind instead of expanding your knowledge.

   The teacher who wrote this digital narrative clearly had a reason for writing this. So what was the moral. I think the moral was that she wanted to make children aware how much their lack of motivation affects them and other people around them. It doesn't just affect you but your teachers too. I think that she was wanting to tell kids how important motivation is and hard it would be on you in the long run, if you didn't have any motivation. She was trying to say that you can't expect us teachers to do everything. She was pretty much saying teachers open the doors of education but it is the job of the student to explore what is on the other side. Basically the moral of the writting was that children need to motivate them selves to explore their learning outside of school.

   So who was she directing her writing too? It could be directed to students and teachers. She is saying that students need motivation to learn. However the educator must trigger that motivation with inspiration. The educator must show to student how amazing knowledge is and how vast,great and never ending it is. But it is also the students job to look for and find the spark of inspiration the teacher has given them and hold on to it and never let go. Students and teacher must realize they both have equal responsibility. So in the long run if something goes wrong for a student you can't blame the teacher if you didn't look hard enough for the inspiration they gave you.

 What does this writing have anything to do with our class? I think Ms Lees may have shown us this writing because we have just started high school. We have many long years of learning to come and we have just started our Journey. Ms Lees may have shown us this writing because in the years to come if we ever lose motivation we will remember this writing. Also as students we should know how important motivation is in our school life. This writing is connected to every student in the world because nobody just starts out with motivation. You have to look for it along the way of your long school life. Ms Lees might have shown us this piece of writing because maybe this writing could be our inspiration. We have many years of school left and we wouldn't be able to enjoy them without our motivation to learn

What did I think of your Writing style? I like the way you wrote it in a somewhat poem style. Your writing was very well done. I personally didn't like the pictures all that much. I liked the whole idea but then you slightly overdid the pictures. There should be a few like 3-4 but you put in way to many. I felt that people would spend more time trying to piece together your writing with the images rather then think about what you are actually writing. The pictures were slightly confusing and took away from your great writing style. I thought the pictures made your writing look slightly less professional. However other then that I really enjoyed reading your writing and felt that what you were saying was true.
