OECD Report Ranks Young Koreans #1 in Creative Problem Solving

OECD Report Ranks Young Koreans #1 in Creative Problem Solving

article

Who : Korean middle school students and high school students

When : in 2012

What : Last December, PISA released the results of the portion of the 2012 survey dealing with math competencies, in which Korea ranked first

How : Do hard study (this is just my think)

Where : OECD Countries

Why : Result of Korea's relatively equal quality of education across schools.



I think Korea education is very good and best in the world. But it have a lot of behind story. Education is best but students don't feel study is fun.

Haiku

Last week, our class created haiku, a kind of Japanese poetry. Haiku are characterized by their brevity and emphasis on simple ideas, often evoking nature or time. Although they are not strictly limited to the oft-taught 5-7-5 or 3-5-3 syllable pattern, our students really enjoyed trying to figure out syllable counts for English words, an aspect of the language they'd never before had to consider. By reading our students' haiku, you can tell what inspires them most: daily life, relationships, happiness, and fried chicken. Here are just a few:

good day
has come and gone away
and I wait

Hyunsu Lim

Thunder in my brain
like an earthquake in my skull
Need more MEDICINE!

Charles Seol

it is Summertime
There is a tasty ice cream
I want to eat it

Namho Kwon

I like you
We are together
You are me

Jun Min Park

With starfalls --
Hearts are full of hope
Sky is bright

Yeon-Ho Ha

I'm very hungry
Tonight's dinner is chicken
I will eat a lot

An Article : Father Kills Suspect in Dauther's Rape

who :  father whose dauther was raped
what : Mr. Kim who is the suspect in the girl's rape
where : Miryong-dong, Gunsan-si, Jeollabuk-do
when :  On March 24 at 10:20 PM
why : father find the message about somehing sexual in the dauther 's  cell phone, and thought Mr. Kim raped his dauther
how : he called Mr. Kim pretending her, and while they arguing the father killed him with knife.

I found the story on KoreaBang.

the movie poster 'The wandering blade of knife'

 This is the movie which has similar story with the article.

 In this movie, the man's dauther is raped and killed. He is trying to find people who did such thing to his dauther and he wants to kill them.

He says 'Why do I have to forgive them who killed my dauther? '

I think this is very complicate problem .

Of course the parents whose children were killed or hurt can't forgive them.

Maybe they won't agree with the judgment.

But the assailants are also someone's children.

There might be a lot of point of view.

What is your opinion?

Bro - That Kind of Guy

Back in March, a self-proclaiming 'Ilbe' netizen, Bro, released a song called 'That kind of guy'.  The music itself is normal. It sounds like a normal ballad song. But it's the lyrics that made the song famous. It talks about an 'ideal guy' who can do anything to make a woman happy. It also talks about why the heck that kind of guy would meet a girl like you.

Bro - That kind of guy

The singer, Bro, wasn't a known singer. He didn't expect the song to get famous. Instead he was worried that he would be criticized hard for making a song like this. But it topped the charts like Melon and Monkey3. He did get criticized for the song. A group called 'Veloce', consisting of 3 female singers, wrote a song in response to this song called 'That kind of girl'. It's the exact same story except that it's a girl singing to a guy about why a girl like that would meet him. 
I personally think that the song is fun. I don't really care about what it means. I don't think that people should take the lyrics seriously. I think it's just a fun song to enjoy.

A Chinese man who eats iron nails.

who : Chinese man Long Yunsheng.
what : He eats iron nails.
where : Maybe his home.
when : Since he was 17 or 18.
why : Because he learned it from others about 32 years ago.
how : He eats the nails with ease.

He eats nails deliciously.

Picture sourse : Youtube.
I read the story here. News in Levels.

I think that he is strange and unique. And it does not look delicious. But he eats nails deliciously. He even eats nails with water. I won't eat nails.

marathon in a desert

they are running 155 miles in Sahara Desert. The runners run 249 kilometers. It look very hard haha..

Charles-Article summerizing (Marathon in North Korea)

News topic: Marathon in North Korea

Who: 400 foreigner marathoners (including amateurs from 15 different countries)

When: Kim Il Sung's Birthday on April 24th, 2014

Where: Pyongyang

What: Marathon in North Korea

How: Tens of thousands of supporters cheered marathoners.

Why: To commemorate Kim Il Sung's birthday & to share a good experience and new friendships to foreigners

My thought:
Anyway, both North Korea & South Korea are in war (since June 25th, 1950). So it is very hard to visit North Korea as a South Korean. Also, most foreigners have worried North Koreans because of their danger. But that marathon competition says North Korea may open its borders, and it can be to become 'United Korea' soon.

I found that story at this link: newsinlevels.com

Charles&Yeonho-CSHS Labs

CSHS contains Main wing, Dormitory wing, Gym wing, and Science wing. We'll introduce our science wing. As a science high school, there are a lot of laboratory and scientific instruments.

1st floor: Biology

- Global exhibition stand

There are exhibitions. Korean & global bees, butterflies, beetles, etc.

in biology lab, there are many microscopes. we use it when we have a experiment in biology class. we did some experiments like observing cells, dissecting experiment.

- Microscopes

There are microscopes more than twenty! Also they may connect with computers!!

On 1st floor, there are some exhibitions of insects in corridor. It decorates efficiently biology section.

2nd floor: Chemistry

- Chemical materials' room

Helium gas & Nitrogen gas (left side), the others reagents is in another room.

Chemistry is to study the way to react something. So, this materials' room has many kinds of measuring instruments(It's very much, so a whole room is filled with reagents!). Most of CSHS students, who took Chemistry, can research with that reagents and instruments.

- Element table display

There is the most expensive element table ever! Naturally, there is no radioactive metal :0

Seriously, Element table is almost all of Chemistry. But, almost all chemistry has just letter and elemental number. So, Chemistry teacher who is working our school, wants to build an element table with real elements. In 2013 spring, that table was built. It costs about 10 million won;;

3rd floor: Physics

- Experiment instruments

There are some experiment topics. Balmer series of hydrogen, Luminescence, etc.

Let us show our physics class. We do some experiments. we can measure the quantity of charge of electron, watch Hall effect, measure the velocity of light! I heard that they are bought in Germany(maybe it's right).

 - The workshop

We use this room when we invent something for Korean students' invention contest, or R&E.

This room is on the end of 3rd floor. There are sandpapers, saws, drills, and heat benders. We made a model of solar cooker with woods&panels.

4th floor: Geography & Astronomy & Environment

- Fossils

Naturally, dinosaurs, that are on the shelf, are not real.

On 4th floor, there are some exhibitions of fossils in corridor. It devised fossils following difference of era (Paleozoic era,Mesozoic era,Cenozoic era). We can also find some dinosaur figures. It's cute:)

- Planetarium

This is the most expensive item in CSHS! In past, we watched Solar eclipse with that!

On top of the Science wing, there is small observatory. School Planetarium club usually uses this place, and this club sometimes watched a planet far away like Jupiter, Saturn, and so on. They also observed solar eclipse in 2012. 7.

Well, our school has lots of things more than we showed. There're pretty awesome, right?

What activities(sports) we can in CSHS?

We can play so many sports in my school. We can play sports what volleyball, soccer and basketball.

We can study in study room and use snack bar, science experiment.

But they are very typical sports. We want to introduce unique sports we can in CSHS.

We can also floorball, table tennis, baseball, badminton, golf, rugby and football.

CSHS's Fashion

Today, we will post about Changwon Science High School students' fashion. We're going to introduce it by time. When the students exercise in the morning before they eat breakfast, they usually wear gym clothes.

gym clothse 1

During the daytime, students wear ordinary clothes (jeans and T-shirts) or gym clothes. Some students wear gym clothes always, even when they are sleeping.

gym clothse 2

At night (from 7:00 pm  to 11:50 pm) they study in the study rooms. Most of them wear gym clothes, because ordinary clothes are more uncomfortable than the gym ones. At 11:50 pm, after the studying, they become exhausted and look like this.

before and after

But on weekends they dress well like this picture.

dresses up well

These are our school uniforms. We don't have summer one. There are a tie and ribbon. (the color is gold!)

school uniform of girls

school uniform of boys

Whatever we wear, we are trying to get better in the everything that is needed to achieve our goals. :-D

p.s. Maybe we'll improve our fashion after we get into college!!!!!

Our school's major departmemts

The CSHS offers the students to choose a major subject. We have 7 different departments available they are as follows:

Math
Probably the most powerful group in our school. That's probably because math is considered the most important subject in our school. Not only that but many students and teachers in the math department have a strong self esteem about about their department.
There are currently 8 teachers and there were roughly 20 students in our grade last year.
Their club name is SF - Solution Finders

Computer Science
The department I'm in. This deparment ha s a relatively big influence on others compared to its size. There is currently 1 teacher and there were 3 students in our grade including me.
Its name used to be MATRIX, but we changed it to TIG. It has multiple meanings. I'll leave that to you.

Physics
Another department where teachers and students are proud of themselves. As I know, the physics department was the biggest in our grade. There are 4 teachers currently. There were two seperate groups called AEC and DioPhysics.

Chemistry
One more big department. There are 4 chemistry teachers in our school. Also the chemistry department is known for using the most amount of money on its R&E projects. Their club name is Chemidiem.

Biology
A weird department in my opinion. They also have two seperate groups. BioBbAa and EU. In our grade, there was a bit of rivalry between the two groups. Now, I don't think there are any.

Earth Science/Environmental Science
These two groups are kind of mixed together. The teachers share the same staff room. There are 2 Earth Science teachers and 1 Environmental Science teacher. There were 4 students in Earth Science and 5 students in Environmental Science. There wasn't a particular name for their club that I know of.


There is a kind of hierarchy between these groups.

Math

|

   Physics    -   Chemistry

|

               Biology   -   Computer Science

            Earth Science   -   Environmental Science

CSHS buildings

Blackout Poetry

Recently, our class created Blackout Poetry, inspired by the work of Austin Kleon. Using old TIME magazines from the school library, we found articles that inspired us and then got to work defacing them in order to create art.

First, look for words and phrases that jump out at you. Then, circle other words, or parts of words, to create meaning out of the rest of the text. Lastly, use a black marker to black out everything else. All that's left is your unique poem!

The poems we created are now on display on the 3rd floor of the main school building. Those who see them are very impressed.

Here are some of our pieces. Enjoy!

Question. What's your favorite TV show or video games?

Answer.

I don't like much TV. Usually that's very boring, and when I late for a program, I cannot watch anymore. I have a PS3, and I'll introduce my PS3 games.
I like to play Tekken 6 (I'd rather buy Tekken Tag Tournament 2, but I made a mistake;).

Armored Core  for Answer (It's a kind of sci-fi game, in which I control robots to combat)

Gran tourismo 6 (It's racing simulation games),

This is Gran tourismo 4's opening movie. I've played Gran tourismo series since 2003.

When I'm an elementary school student, I played Armored Core 3 & Grantourismo 4.

And ICO (It's very old game, But It is very touching game).

ICO was made in 2001(Wow, that's very old!). This music is played if you clear the game. How touching song!

Also, sometimes, I play PC games (But I don't play online games). I like SPORE (It is a evolution game, I make a cell grow into a creature, and civilization).

Yeah, I play lots of these kinds of games.

What makes you happy?

Q. What makes you happy? :) Many things make me happy. First, when i getting a good score on a test. Second, when i was bored my freind s ends SMS to me. Some time eating delicious food make me bappy too. I want always happy.happy

One of My class journal entry: What is your favorite TV program or video game?

<My class Journal in 3/28/2014>

‘Daily Quest Special’: What is Your favorite TV program or video game?

1.     My favorite TV program is ‘YTN TV News’! ^_^ Because I can’t watch TV often in school, I don’t like any favorite funny TV show now.

2.     My favorite TV show WAS ‘One night Two Days(1박 2일)’ When I was in middle school and had enough time to watch TV, I never forgot to watch this TV show in time.

3.     My favorite video game genre is rhythm games, so I like many rhythm games. Because I think music makes me happy, I feel happy when I played rhythm games. I love ‘Jubeat’ and ‘Beatmania’ especially. I like ‘DDR(Dance Dance Revloution)’ too, but the number of game centers that have DDR is too little.

4.     I also like another games; LoL(League of Legend)-which lots of people play- Sid Meier’s civilization, and so on.

Journal Rewrite - Friday March 28th, 2014

Journal Question : What is your favourite TV show or video game?

My favourite viedo game is probably the "Call of Duty" series. I've played it since the first one ever came out. Then I've played the expansion set, Call of Duty : United Offensive. Thenwp was Call of Duty : 2, and so on. I know that there are currently nine games in the series, and I've played eight and a half of them. I've started the nineth game, Call of Duty : Black Ops II, but I couldn't finish the game due to comouter problems. Recently I haven't been able to play, because of the time and PC specification. But I would love to continue playing it later on.
