Do You Think Social Media is Good for Teens?

 Do You Think Social Media is Good for Teens? Social media is a tool for everyone to access all information, especially for teens. It helps people to discover what’s happening in the world in real-time. Social media originated as a way to interact with friends or family. With social media, everyone can feel connected to each other.  Social media gives a lot of advantages for teens such as they can increase their creativity by exploring new things or ideas on the platform. Social media can be used by teens to open businesses and generate their own income. They also can start new connections through social media. In many senses, social media helps teens to find common ground with others online. However, social media has many disadvantages for teens.

Can Robot Replace The Educational Roles of Teachers?

Image
When we think of the word “future”, what comes into our mind? Some of us may think of robots. Yes, these days artificial intelligence (AI) has been growing fast. The fear of losing our job to technology has become very real. However, while technology can solve a lot of societal problems, technology has its limits. For example, I personally think that robots cannot replace teachers’ educational roles. Even though robots know a lot more facts than teachers, they don’t have the teaching skills needed in the classroom, while teachers have those skills. It seems that the teacher’s work is simple. They just need to know the topic and talk about it. However, this is not at all the case. Just to tell facts to children is not enough. Children are different from each other. They think differently, understand differently, and are interested in different things. Teachers can’t just tell all of the facts and leave the classroom. They have to try to convey the topic to everyone. They will come up ...

More About Myself

Image
 More About Myself Hello there! I would like to talk about myself. It is not good to talk about other people, so I am going to talk about myself. There is no problem with that, isn't there? My name is Yehezkiel Austincamry Simangunsong. Yes, I know, my name is super long, but you can call me Kiel (some people call me Austin or Camry and that's okay). I am a student in SMAN 3 Bandung. Many people say that my current school is the best school in West Java, so that's good for me I guess. I am an 11th grader, which means in two years, I am going to study at university. I live in Jatinangor now. My home is very far from my school, which means I have to wake up super early to go to school. However, since we are in pandemic time, it's okay for me to wake up at 6 or 7 AM.  Because I study in SMAN 3 Bandung, I spend most of my time doing assignments and study for exams. I don't have much time to do leisure activities. In my free time, I usually play with my cellphone to watc...

Film Review : Nico's Weg

Image
Film Review : Nico's Weg If you are trying to find a family-friendly film to learn German for beginners, this film will fit your desire. "Nico's Weg" is a German film made by Deutsche Welle. This film is meant for German language level A1 learners. This film is about a man named Nico from Seville, Spain. Because he wanted to be away from his parents, he decided to go to Germany and meet his aunt, Yara. When he arrived in Germany, he lost his bag. Luckily, at the airport, he met a woman named Lisa and her niece named Emma. Lisa and Emma wanted to help Nico, but there was a problem. Nico didn't understand German well. Therefore, Lisa and Emma were planning to help Nico find his bag and learn German. As the story went on, Nico made new friends, like Sebastian, Nina, Nawin, Selma, etc.  From this film, I got some interesting German words. An example is the German words for countries around the world, such as Italien (Italy), Japan (Japan), Spanien (Spain), Schweden (S...

Allusions in Song

Image
Allusions in Song Allusion is an indirect reference to a person, a place, a thing, or an idea of historical, cultural, and literary significance. The author usually uses references that can be understood by the audience, such as an event, a book, a myth, a place, or a work of art. Allusions can help the audience to see unique connections between two ideas.  An example of allusion in song :  3 Doors Down-Kryptonite I watch the world float to the dark side of the moon After all, I knew, it had to be something to do with you I really don't mind what happens now and then As long as you'll be my friend at the end If I go crazy, then will you still call me Superman? If I'm alive and well, will you be there and holding my hand? I'll keep you by my side with my superhuman might Kryptonite It is an allusion to wearing power or strength. Superman was incapacitated with Kryptonite, as it was his weakness. It means that the person is making th...

Recount Text : Adolf Hitler The Holocaust Massacre

https://mail.google.com/mail/mu/mp/936/#cv/priority/%5Esmartlabel_personal/170bfceb90f8363f Click here to see the recount text Adolf Hitler "The Holocaust Massacre" The Holocaust was one of the most unforgettable moments in history. The word “Holocaust” came from the Greek word  holos , which means whole, and  kaustos,  which means burned. This word was used to describe a sacrificial offering burned on an altar. However, since 1945, the word has been used to describe the ideological and systematic state-sponsored prosecution and the murder of 6 million European Jews by the Nazi regime from 1933 until 1945. The slaughter and the mass murder were done systematically and professionally by the Nazi regime. Because the Jews were a threat to the Germans racial community and were inferior to the Germans in Adolf Hitler’s point of view generally back then, the Holocaust occurred in the land of Poland with the existence of the concentration camp.  Caused by Hitler...

Storytelling : The Bremen Town Musicians

Image
The Bremen Town Musicians A certain man had a donkey, which had carried the corn-sacks to the mill indefatigably for many a long year; but his strength was going, and he was growing more and more unfit for work. Then his master began to consider how he might best save his keep; but the donkey, seeing that no good wind was blowing, ran away and set out on the road to Bremen. "There," he thought, "I can surely be town-musician." When he had walked some distance, he found a hound lying on the road, gasping like one who had run till he was tired. "What are you gasping so for, you big fellow?" asked the donkey. "Ah," replied the hound, "as I am old, and daily grow weaker, and no longer can hunt, my master wanted to kill me, so I took to flight; but now how am I to earn my bread?" "I tell you what," said the donkey, "I am going to Bremen, and shall be town-musician there; go with me and engage yourself also as a mu...

My Awesome Vacation

Four Countries in An Awesome Journey On December 20th, 2019, my family and I woke up at 2 AM. We were getting ready to go to the Soekarno-Hatta Airport. At 2.30 AM, we went to the airport by a rental car. When we arrived, we checked in and got the plane ticket. We went through the immigration and waited for the plane until 10 AM. We were flying to Phnom Penh, Cambodia. When we arrived, we went to our hostel and rested until 6 PM. Then, we went to a night market for food-hunting. The food was delicious. After we got full, we went back to our hostel and took a nap.  The next day, on December 21st, 2019, my family and I went to the Genocidal Museum where there was the history of the greatest genocidal event in Cambodia. Then, we went to King's Palace and took some pictures there. Then, we went to a mall where my father met his old friend when he was studying in India. His old friend's name was Mr. Lorn and he brought his nephew. My parents and Mr. Lorn were talking about al...
