Hurray, Computer Lab.
The main focus of today's computer lab session was Autodidacticism, or the concept of teaching yourself something. Every site we visited today was filled with information, about many different topics. The site "Grammar Girl" covered many different aspects of grammar, while a similar site, "The Math Dude," covered math. Another website, "Wonderopolis," held the answers to many different, interesting questions, from "Why do some years leap ahead?" to "Why are school buses yellow?". But the most interesting part? Everything covered was learned by the student, and not dictated by the teacher. The class simply taught themselves, just as they were expected to!
