THE TRADITIONAL RESEARCH PAPER IS BEST by Alexandria Lockett

 1.Alexandria Lockett try to tell us about before the research situation, and now the internet “we must acknowledge how the Internet makes the process of research and  writing research much more complex”.because internet give us more information about the research Which does not allow us to use our brain properly Students do not go to the library because of the internet facility

2.Unfortunately, the labor involved in researching and using the Internet for research tends to be ignored.because before the internet people have to go to the library for research.before the internet technology people need many days to to research now people need 3mint to research.the Internet make it more easy than before. 

3.some people research and they take only the idea and they make their own word, But most people cannot handle the chore of deciphering the data deluge.”Plagiarism, then, becomes a major effect of the Internet’s causal effect on teaching and learning the research paper”

Learning Intentions

Essay Draft 1

One thing that got my attention was “Learning is not easy, but it can change a life”.and for that, we need a Peaceful place to change our life. An intellectual home is a place where we can learn many things we can solve our academic problems. We can practice that place without any issues. my Intellectual home makes me focus on my career goals. It’s helped me to improve my life. I found my similar Intellectual home with Malcolm X.as my favorite article. I think my idea was similar to this author at the same time, I admire my intellectual home. To prove this, I will first explore Malcolm X Intellectual home place and processes then I will explain my intellectual home. After that, I will discuss how Intellectual homes change people as different people. Then I will describe a great experience I had in my life during 2020. Lastly, I will discuss how I found similarities and differences with Malcolm X.

Malcolm X decided to learn to read and write in his many years in prison. I appreciated how Malcolm X struggled to Read and write during his difficult time in jail. He understood it’s most important to learn How to read and write. Malcolm X’s situation before and after is similar to my issues. I did not have a shed to go to jail but instead, I had the lockdown in my house and secondly, I did not learn how to read and write but instead I got to learn how to type faster on the keyboard.

Malcolm X uses a dictionary to describe his struggles with learning how to read and write “But every book I picked up had few sentences which didn’t contain anywhere from one to nearly all of the words that might as well have been in Chinese.”Malcolm X uses description to show that he doesn’t understand anything whenever he tries to read, so to him, it’s like trying to understand Chinese. after being convicted of robbery in 1946 and he spent 10 years in prison, where he educated himself.

During those 10 years, he does not waste his time. He focuses only on study. He learns a lot in 10 years. he learns about history. He picked up a dictionary while he’s in prison. and reads and he copies them down and he learns how to spell them. He learned how to read and write because Malcolm X did not have a great education growing up before he went to prison, he was just out in the street. He was not very articulate but when he goes to prison he treats it like going to college. so he goes to the prison library. He teaches himself how to read. He learns a lot by growing in prison. and now he understands what the book was saying

 On the other hand, during the early stages of Covid-19, almost everything was closed and people were forced to stay inside to prevent the spread of this virus. All of my time was spent at home, with not much to do, leading to times where I was bored much more than often. To battle this boredom, I decided to learn how to type fast without seeing the keyboard because, during the time, I don’t know how to type fast. and I want to learn something new and I don’t waste my time that panromantic time, on YouTube I searched up how to type faster on the keyboard, and to my eyes, Videos were abundant for me to how I can learn I can’t remember how long it was, but all I know was that I spent a long time listening to the video. And the video helped out to memorize the keys. Then I understood how to put my finger on the right keys and how to memorize the keys.

The story “Learning to Read” written by Malcolm X discusses how he learned to write and read in the many years he spent in prison because of a crime he committed. After going to jail, He completely charged himself. While Malcolm X found his Intellectual Home consists of the process of reading and place of jail. And my Intellectual home is a little different from Malcolm X. I found my Intellectual home in my house. because of the lockdown, which has made me more inspired to learn new things.

Finally, both of these experiences have been sort of a turning point for me. Not in a sense that they changed my life drastically but instead they both experienced have made me think of life in a different way. First, learning to read and write makes Malcolm X more independent in life. We should not only do stuff that is practically needed but also do things that allow our inner self to have peace and explore our personality. On the other hand, learning to type fast made me more independent as a person as well as taught me a life lesson. This is not to ever rely on your family and friends for your needs because once you take that little step towards learning the thing you need that would make you much stronger as a person. Therefore, even though both of these learning might sound like small achievements in reality they have impacted life a lot.

Coffeehouse #2

I’m very excited to share my learning experiences. learning new things it’s a different excitement for me, I know “learning is not easy but it can change a life” I learned many things in my life. Second Language, driving, cooking, typing, but I don’t know how to play the piano but one interesting thing is the piano. I love piano instruments but I don’t know how to play them. Finally, I learned the piano. In my high school. I had a music class which is the piano. The piano is my favorite instrument. it seems like it’s very easy to play. When I played piano one week I thought I could not take it anymore because it was very hard to play with the right fingers with the right keys. It was very difficult for me.

my few classmates can play the piano because they had a piano class before and they have experienced how to play. My teacher was nice. He always helped me to learn. how to put my finger on the right keys and how to memorize the keys.

I made a friend, who is good at piano. I always sit with her and she shows me how I can practice. I can play with one hand but I can not play with two hands at the same time. I feel difficulty with that because I can not move two hands fingers at the same time. one day my teacher saw how I play and he told me it’s good but you need little practice to play faster.

I practice the whole class. then I feel it improved. Then I practiced a lot when I learned piano. Then I believe the practice is important to learn. As a learner, I want to say that don’t give up. “work hard, makes dreams into reality”

“When I Learned to Read” by Salvatore Scibona it was published in The New Yorker on June 13th and 20th 2011, its talks about how he struggled with his high school in his teenage age. How hard was the school for him He failed all of his classes. he works hard to flunk out of high school but he doesn’t know what he was reading and he didn’t know how to read. and he burned the report card in the KFC where he was working. He burned the report card because he failed all of his class .he loved working at KFC. He was saving money for his future.
Sometimes he breaks the addiction to the tube. and he spent the night in a derelict shed with mushrooms He hates reading. He just swings his eyes on the pages of the library books. because of the girl, he loved with the movie “Reading messed with my brain in an unaccountable it made me happy” 

He found his intellectual home at St.John’s college. A college where he was able to join in and it was too far from his hometown It was fifteen hundred miles from home. But he was happy to let him in And he made new friends he can meet new people, He wasn’t forced to read; there were no textbooks, no quizzes, no tests. Even though his parents couldn’t afford it he made it his mission to get there and be able to go somewhere where he felt comfortable.
“I feel like a vacation” this quote means  Salvatore trying to say he felt free he doesn’t have to read. He doesn’t have to take the test or quizzes “Reader. I married it.”The author tries to understand the Reader when he breaks out the door. Everything changes his life.
