Exposing the flowers

In the garden, flowers are not only exposed to the gardener, but they are also exposed to the sun and the rain. The sun and rain are essential to their growth. At one point during their growth, the gardener can’t constantly nourish them. The sun and the rain help nourish the garden when the gardener is not there.

In this case, a teacher’s role to their students is to socialize them and expose them to the real world. A great way to socialize students is by using Web 2.0. Web 2.0 is social media which can expose them to social norms. The sun and rain represent society and web 2.0. Both elements are combined in order to help with the growth of the flower and the student. Teachers can use Web 2.0 to teach lessons. For example, use Facebook for projects such as developing understandings of each character from a book and each character has their own Facebook. This is a great way to expose students to social media since it is very big in our society today.

In grey’s anatomy, they have majorly integrated technology in the hospital. The hospital has been socialized by society because technology has become a huge part in our society which benefits the hospital. For example they now read charts on iPads and use their cell phones to contact each doctor. Just like the students, the doctors have been exposed to different uses of technology.
