Long-life learning

These days supposed to be my holiday after have had pressuring moment prior to the national exam. Others said i need to do a lot of fun things, but i choose to joining some free courses from coursera.org. For me, this is what i called fun! Hahahaha. (I'm not that nerd.. I also watch movies everyday.. Hahahaha)

These are great courses, honestly. You can choose what you want to learn, how much you want to know, how hard you want to work with it. I am not an expert in english but the teachers speak english fluently. I dont need to be affraid of any difficulty because when i think i don't really understand what they say, i can just pause the video and play it back.

One of the subject i am joining is instructional methods in health professional educations. At first, i think because i am a newbie in this kind of subject, i need to try hard to learn. Yet, after i saw the list of teaching materials, i don't think it will be that hard. They teach us from the very basic things. I learn from the very basic of thinking, learning style, way of thinking, motivation, and constructing learning issues, evaluation as well.

Some people might think if the courses will be boring and not interactive. We only have one way of communication. Even they have some kind of forum to discuss, but i dont't know why, i cannot stand for long time with this.

However, this is amazing. These courses are things even busy people can do between their business and leisure time. Sometimes people need to learn more to solve their problem in work, or just to improve their knowledge besides of their major, and so do i. No matter how busy you are, there are always lot of ways to learn. The most important things you need to know is "what you want and need to learn? How realistic the things are?", so your life would be a long-life learning.
