I have been thinking about what to write for the final weekly blog post of this academic year. I decided to write an unusual one, written from the first person, when it occurred to me that this is arguably the third unusual weekly blog post in a row. Our former staff person Sean Vivier wrote our weekly blog posts before. When he left he had already written enough blog posts that he could keep sending them to us, but he has now run out. I always enjoyed reading Sean’s blog posts, so when this happened three weeks ago, I decided to start writing them myself.
I am writing this blog post because I often meet people who think that students will not be motivated to do something new, leave their comfort zone and or put effort into something even though it will positively change their lives or have some other intrinsic value. Writing these blog posts has been an interesting experience for me. I have not written much before and I am still working on my writing style and ability. I hope the fact that you are reading this blog post written by a student helps to dispel the notion that students won’t have the motivation to learn new things.
