Lecture break

In Finland we have this thing called hiihtoloma. In english it would propably be called "ski holiday." We don´t have it becouse we are studying higher education but little kids have it and that´s why Anna and Ilkka had their holiday this week. It´s good, i can do some school stuff witch i have to return next week, while im on holiday in Istanbul.

We had two little tasks for this week according to this digital business course. First was watching Kyla Mitsunagas TED speak and reflecting it. So I watched it and I agree with her in most of the points she was talking about. I think learning is a journey as she does, a lifetime journey. Im a person who likes to have challenges and goals in life. And then she was talking about learning at and  with students. Learning at is working in math, languages and that kinf of stuff but teacher can try to add some with also in those subjects. The thing with "the girl who came in her office during office hours" I think in South Korea they have cultural thing with "should" and girl was thinking that way. In Finland we have that too, but most of us is thinking what is reasonable and what I should not do. It´s more about fear of getting unemployed after graduating etc. I do that thinking myself, but I also try  thinking what i wanna do. I can handle that travelling part :) Or when you travel enough? And the last thing was: believe in yourself. Believing in yourself is very, very important. Sometimes it feels like you are not good at anything but then you have to lift your head and think what you have to do to achieve your goals! So Believe, Plan and Achieve!!! And here is the video: (Thanks for Mira Niemi who said that it´s possible to attach other peoples videos in my blog)

And the second task was to market Super Park videos. We are now in that part where we have shared the video in social media and we also tried to send it to whole Laurea but you have to have rights to do that, so it didn´t work. We send the video link to a woman whose kids was on the video so they can also share an watch it. We are also learning while we try to get more views. I did some studying about Youtube optimising. It´s about searching, naming, describing, tagging, comments, publishing, texts and links. You will see how we made it on monday.

This week was nice. I did cross county skiing and i was on a long weekend holiday with my friends in Himos ski resort near Jyväskylä. It was super fun, i just made it home from there. I triend my new skiis and loved them and skiing. I used to snowboard before this weekend but i think i have to sell my old board, becouse skiing is the thing now. But now i have to do some unpacking and packing.
