I think that people are educated worse than five years ago. Nowadays, people use the technology for anything when they do the homework. They search into the dictionary in the website, while during all the century people search in the physic dictionary.
People aren’t conscious that stay all the day in front of the computer is the worst that you can do for your eyes. After years, a lot of people will wear glasses.

In my opinion, the education level has fallen a lot in the last 5-6 years, and I think that one of the causes is the cellphone and facebook addiction.
The computers and the internet aren’t bad by themselves, is the people that don’t know how to use it correctly, and as a result of it, the students finish criticizing internet without knowing that, and it’s wrong, the internet is not the problem, the problem are the people that don’t know how to stop using internet.

From my point of view, this is a great video because, using statistics, it makes us think about how is the education nowadays.
I think that, althoug education is becoming worse evety day, due to the hihg prices, the bad use of technology... it isn't late to change this refomrs. If we want a good and free education, we have to fight for it!

Unknown said...

In my opinion nowadays the students don't have a good education, because they spend more time in front of the computer chating... than studying or making their homework.

I think that technology has to be more used at school instead of beeing used as a tool of distraction.

Unknown said...

From my point of view, the education level is not which one it should be. I think it's because of technology. Students spend a lot of time in front of the computers, the television, cellphones... in stead of studying.
However, I think there should be more technology in the classroom. It would make it easier for teachers but also for students.
So, use more technology as a educational resource it is not bad if we know how to do it

Unknown said...

I belive that the actual education in some schools is worse than the other years because people have more resources although they don't use them well.
On the one hand teenager do a bad use of internet because we have a lot of information that we don't pay atencion.
On the other hand, the information of internet is uncertain, because we don't know if it is true or not in some cases.
I think that make a good use of internet is important because it can help you in everything.

Paula Vergés said...

In my opinion, technology is a very good resource if students uses it correctly. Internet can be a good tool for search information, but also it can be a big distraction.
I say that it can be a big distraction if students stay on facebook or chating by watsapp when they are in class.

I think that education is bad nowadays because it is very expensive and the use of technology is quite bad. But I hope that it will be changed.

Unknown said...

Personally I think that the education has changed a lot. Now the schools apply new techniques to improve the student performance and test it.

On the one hand is ture that the current education favors many but on the other hand the schools use the new technology. This is the disadvantage because the people don't know how to use the technology properly. In classrooms the students spend the day chatting or internet while the teacher is explaining the matter and this generates a conflict where technological advances are offensive.

The vast of majority of students are very unhappy because the price of matriculations and school material has amounted. Furthermore, they don’t use the books and they spend many hours working in front of the computers. These students also request that teachers know a little more about them.

From my point of view, this video is very interesting and well designed, since students criticize and give their ideas about education. If we want that education to succeed, we have fighted to achieve.

Alba Orozco said...

I think this video is very good, because the way we have done is creative and I think that the teachers and students have done together realizing it was the truth.
Education was becoming worse, the economy and cuts, and that's a problem.
We must find a solution!

Noemí Torralba said...

I think that this video has trought me about the education sistem. I conclude that is necessary to promote the most the tecnology in schools, high-schools and universities because we live in a tecnology world. Moreover, only one student spends a lot of money during his education whit shool material and books and all this money would can save with a simple laptop.

Marta Plana said...

As I see it, who participated in that video had a fantastic idea!
It's good that the world know that the education every day it's worser than the previous.
I would change the way to teach into another with less technology and less hours par day to do the homework.
We need time daily to relax.

In my opinion, I believe that this video is really good to show over the world that lots of students aren't happy with the way they are educated and that they aren't conformist, because they fight to change it.
On the other hand, I think that the solution which they give isn't the best, because they focus in the use of technology and I believe that by the same way it could help us, it can be a very big distraction too, because we have to know how to use it and don't abuse.

Unknown said...

I think that this video wants to show that education could be better than what is nowadays. And with this video we can see that the students are addicted to the Internet and use it at all times. However the technology gives many aid and is not bad to use, the trouble is that many young people spend too much time on social networks, specially now that everyone have a smart phone.

The students and the teachers that appear in this film complain because the students spend too long online, at home and school, for working or in the free time.
I'm agree with their argument because I think that using computers too many hours is bad for the students' health and for pepole in general.

Unknown said...

From my point of view, this is a fantastic video because it makes you think how the education is changing increasingly due to the new technologies. For example, in the video says that, the education level has been falling during the last four years.
Well, in my opinion, I think that most of the people, who go to school, are addicted to new technologies, especially facebook or the cellphone, and if we do not do anything about it, the education will fall precipitously.

I believe that this video it’s a good way to show what the students think about their education. I’m agree with them when they say that education level has fallen in the last 4 years.
Moreover, nowadays, students spend too much time in their cell phones, computers, facebook, ... while they could stay studying, doing the homework, ... However, the technology is a good way to teach at class.

Nil Pijuan said...

In my opinion, this film is very interesting because it is an understandable video and also very creative. This video shows how is the education nowadays, and also the students’ live.

I belive that the high prices of the matriculation have led education to become worse every day.

Many students are addicted to the Internet and mobile phones. I think, we should be careful and reduce these addictions.

Lídia Banús said...

From my point of view, the education system is not the worst system in the world history because, nowadays, many people can study and there are a lot of financial aids. However, we can't be proud of our system education. The world progresses, everything progresses but education doesn’t evolve. If we used the technology in a good way, it would be a good weapon to learn. All the countries in the world fight to have the highest marks. This is not a competition. The education system needs an important reform. I believe that teachers have to teach things which are relevant to student’s life and they ought not to want to create a human encyclopaedia.
“I did not create the problems but there are my problems”. It is one of my favourite sentences in the video owing to its profound message.

Unknown said...

I believe education has become a kind of business, but this is an effect from capitalism, so I don't think this fact would change.
Moreover, we aren't conscious the damage Internet causes on us. Some time ago I heard a sentence that was so true. It says that computer was one of the humanity's most important invention, while Internet was the worst.

Paufloresmayola said...

In my point of view the education has changed a lot during the lasts 10 years. For example, my parents told me that when they were young, teachers where the maximum authority and if they did something wrong, they were physically punished. They also hadn’t got to go to the school, if they where 12 they could work in a fabric.
Nowadays the education is so different. I think that the most relevant reason is the capitalism, which makes that poor people have lots of difficulties to study.
Moreover, internet has changed a lot the way people study and also the way people lives.

In my opinion, the educational system should be revised and changed, looking over the new technologies and applying them to the system, in order to obtain better results and a more useful and dynamic educational system.

eric vilanova gifra said...

From my point of view,nowadays the students don't have a good education.
Students spend many hours in front of computers and new technologies and study the necessary hours.
new technologies to help us make it easier aspects of education but students do not know their proper use.

Ricard Viñas Graboleda said...

From my point of view, this video shows us the "evolution" of the education since several years ago. Despite the social and technology advances, education is worse than it were in the last century.
It's said that the problem is the technology that attracts us, but I think the technology it's not the problem, the problem is us. We should know where and how we can use the technology, but too many people didn't realise that they are more in front of a computer than with his/her friends.

Noemí Torralba said...

JORDI BROSSA QUINTANA:
I belive that education hasn't change much. I think that teachers and students should use more technology.
Students spend a lot of money in school supplies. They could use technology to reduce their cost.
In addition, the prize of university is extremely expensive. If it doesn't change, only rich people could study.

Unknown said...

In my point of view, the education is too expensive considering that it is almost a necessity in the time we live.
I think we have forgotten what is really important in life and what is not important.Our goals and our money (what really moves the world) are determinated by our studies or, sometimes, by our family is money. So, we should support more the education and not so much all that fashions.

Since there's technology our life has changed a lot. Like is showed in the video, the methods of teaching and studying are changing day by day. I think that students are going too far with the obsession of new techology. They leave the studies to be on Facebook, or to listen to music, and, in my point of view, are first the studies than those things.
It is for only a one simple reason, because studies are important to be somebody in life, to be self-sufficient in the future.

Albert Pujol said...

This video shows us how the educational system has evolved over the last few years. Using statistical data made by the students of the university, about how many hours does they spend studying, and also the price of the university tuition.
Moreover, I believe that using technology to teach is a good way to introduce us to a new society, but it can be a big distraction too, so we mustn’t abuse it.

Laia Mercado said...

From my point of view, the main idea of this video is to show us people knows that the new technologies are bad for them. The use of statistics and no verbal language is a original way to claim the bad use of this new technologies. But the problem is not only the bad use of the technologies, moreover it has to be added that education system is not so useful than it were.
Moreover, I agree with the video because instead of helping us to make ourselves more competitive, social networks and in general technologies only disturbe us because we don't know how to make a good use of it.

This video shows us how the education nowadays is. In my opinion this video is a good way to understand it because they use statistics.
I think that the education is worse than few years ago although the technology is better. The technology could be a good tool to learn a lot of things but some people waste this resource.
Moreover, the prices are higher and lots of people can not afford a good education.
So the education is bad now and we have to do something to have a good education in the future. The people who participated in this video have already started to achieve it.

Unknown said...

I think that this is a good video because it teaches us that teenagers spend a lot of time studying and surfing on the internet. The problem is, teenagers spend a lot of time in their computers and i think this is very bad for them because it damages their eyes.

Finally, in my opinion, teachers shouldn't give as much homework and teenagers should have more freedom.

Marc Comerma said...

I totally agree with this video. The education in our times is ancient. The families, and sometimes the students with job, invest a lot of money and time to get an education. This education is the most expensive way to study. If the education system was modern, would be use and promote the technology. In addition, the families should not to pay so much. And the students would have more capacity to form a critical due to the diversity of the internet. But the political system not allow changes, and of course, not allow the freedom thinking. So, if the education doesn't changes, the people neither. As Ernesto Guevara said: " the education is the base of all revolucionary"

From my point of view, I agree with the video as that shows how education has changed and the influence of new technologies.
Students show that they lose a lot of time as of social networks and also lack of concentration.
Students were more relaxed and it would also help to study.

Aina la Conxa de Conxolandia said...

From my point of view, the technology is a good tool for improve our knowledge. But nowadays it has become in a distraction for many of us, because when whe have free time, we spend it in a computer or chating by Whatsapp or playing with some PlayStation.
Despite that, if we know when we can use the technology it can be a good help for our studies.

Judit Marcé said...

This video shows us with lots of statistics how the education is nowadays.

From my point of view, education is worse day by day although technology is a good way to improve it. One of the reasons is that lots of people can't afford the cost of a good education.

I think the educational system has to be changed in order to obtain better results.

Unknown said...

From my point of view, the ducal system should be changed. Nowadays, studying in one university is a fact very expensive. I think that people can use technology for make education easier and cheaper than the conventional education. So i think that, everybody can will improve the educational system.

Unknown said...

This video shows us how education nowadays is. Students think that the new technology could change our future in many aspects.
From my point of view, we have never give our aims up. And if we know that we can do plenty of things to improve our knoledges, we have to do it.
However, I believe that the new technology isn't the best way in order to learn.

From my point of view it’s a good video because it shows us the student’s education nowadays. We can see that the most of students spend a lot of time in technology instead of studying.
I believe that technology is very present in our days and people are too addicted so I think that it's bad. Besides, I think that it's another way to learn things and get information.
We must be used the technology in a good way because it can affect our studies.

Núria said...

From my point of view, technology isn't the best way to improve our education. Moreover it provoke a lot of expenses. Due to it the goverment should reduce this costs.
I believe that traditional way that our lasts generations have studied, is the best form.
Because of this we will have to find out which is the best solution and it will be to tough.

From my point of view, the education these days isn't as good as it could be.
The students are using technology for everything and I think that we must find the equilibrium between the excessive use of it and the no use in the education.
I believe that the only thing that we could never do is separate the technology from the education because it's really present in our lives.

BagaS said...

In my opinion the video says that we waste much either money or time in useless thing as be online in class or buying high technology and we don't value what really matters: as education, not everyone has the opportunity to study, the message of the video I understand is "advantage of the opportunities that you do not all have the same opportunities"

BagaS said...

In my opinion technology has been a revolution for communication, studies, businesses, etc, but humans have turned it into a bad thing because we aren't responsible by using it, for example using facebook in class. Also I understand that students aren't motivated because to get a good job is increasingly difficult so sometimes studies aren't a guarantee nowadays.
Even with it this situation is very difficult to control, so there have to be a change in a not much long time period.

we are lucky by have advanced science and technology. They can help us to find information that we need. But we don't make good use of our resources, we spend a lot of time in facebook, cell phone,email...
When we do homework, we seek information on the Internet. It' s very easy, just copy and stick. Networks enable people to be lazy.

Miquel Salvatella said...

in this video we can see diferents ideas, all of them are problems. First metion the lack of personal attention that there may be in a university class because there are a lot of students. Moreover we do many things that are useless for tomorrow, which cost a lot of money and not all the people can pay, so they need to ask for a loan.
All durint the day we lose a lot of time with; internet, sleeping, eating, cellphone, tv, class...to do everything we want to we need more hours, and it's impossbile.
Not always we can do what we want to, always will be problems that don't have solution.

Miquel Salvatella said...

form my point of view this video tries to transmit different problems about students, as how expensive is pay for a career and even the books are used. Students complain about teachers and the way they teach, or the quantity of people is there in a class, which sometimes are overcrowded and they don't have the suitable attention to understand everything they have to.
Eventually they say that the dai is too short to do all the things they must do.

Angela Gonzalez said...

In the video students are complaining, because nowadays the quality of education has declined due to incorret use of new technologies such as the Internet, cell phones, we spent some time using them unnecessarily.
Technology such as the internet is of great importance because it make easy the work in the classroom.
The important thing is to be aware of its use and see it as a good source of education which is not bad if we learn to use it.

Angela Gonzalez said...

This video demonstrates the reality that these students feel. They explain to use that the quality of study has not improved in recent years, but if the technology and that teachers they do not use much and that most students use it for personal use like facebook, tv, internet... and not in school.
My opinion is that they would have to improve education and focus to new technologies because they are the future and students should take the opportunity to study to train as a people.
