We did not do much in today's class as Mr. Paterson gave us time to do our presentation and essay. One thing he did introduce us to is the Jalt association and it was interesting how people were able to get the chance to present in front of adults.

There's never a day when I haven't learned something new in Mr. Patersons' class. For me, the top 3 topics we learned in class were, teamwork activity, the corporation documentary, and the Israel Palestine dispute analysis.  Firstly the teamwork activity made me realize the level of captivity my brain was in. We first did the marshmallow challenge, and though we did not take too much time talking about what to do, we weren't able to go far as to ask for more ingredients.

There were mainly two problems that we touched on today, and the first was made to help sell more agriculture and the other was to be used to clear forest for war in Vietnam. Despite this faint difference in motive one similarity is that they were created for the benefit of humans with many unfixable damages to humans and nature. Firstly, the pesticide was a chemical to kill unwanted bugs eating farmers' crops. It helped farmers sell more food. The second is Agent Orange, a life-killing chemical used in the Vietnam war used by the US to balance their battle area with the Vietnamese. Both polluted the soil, connecting to the water source and contaminating thousands of families living near the usage site. Even though the initial contamination was done years before the problem, the damage still lingers within families around the world. But the problem with this ...

 Today we took note in a different way than normal. Cornell note is a style of note writing made by Walter Paulk at Cornell University. The note is separated into 4 parts one for the title, keywords, notes, and finally summary and questions. Because of the spatial use of the document I thought that Cornell notes were better written on paper. But I thought that I was able to write pretty detailed notes today, so I will like to test it out again in another class.
