Class:
  I am interested in your opinion of the poetry exam.  
What did you think?  Specifically
  • How did it compare to a "normal" test?
  • What did you learn about poetry during the test?
  • What did you learn about technology from the test?
Thanks for taking the time to think about your experience during the exam.

On, Fridaythe exam is mainly about poetry, this is the difference with the normal exam, and it has a lot of vocabulary. During the test , I know I am not really understand the poetry, I still need use the Google or some information what I search before, special in the vocabulary part, I need translate or find definition to choose the answer, this is waste the time. when I read the poetry "The Grass", I don’t know the meaning and what's the poet want to tell us, it is make me confuse to do the multiple choice question, maybe the cause of I don’t have enough time to read it more time and I think the internet it's very helpful my test. From the test, I learned I need to search some information and through the aspects of knowledge to let me more understand the poetry and when I do some practice in the poetry, I need to analyze it , if I can do it ,I need to read it more time.

  • Comparing to "Mr L NORMAL" test ,it was the same thing challenge ,tough and thinkable .
  • What I learned about the poetry during the test was how the grass are so beautiful natural small things that does little and simple things
  • I learned that I was wrong about what I said on my 30 seconds mins to say something to the whole world when I said " I would like to tell them to stop using technology " well in this test I used it in the vocabulary part ,so I completely changed my mind about it .

       Friday we took the poetry exam,it's different to the normal test because include all most all pieces of the poetry and we used computer to take this test. But whole test is same difficult to other normal test. Use internet can help students to find out the answers but it waset students' time so if they didn't study for the test before they take the test they won't have enough time to do this test. This exam can test students overall.

       Gopaperless!!! One test we can save about 124 copypapers. But use computer to take test still have some issues, first if we delete some original text and we can't fix it. Second, normal text we used paper we can make some signs on the test sheet, in the computer we can't do this that will waset our time. Third use computer to take test students can't see entire text at the same time. Forth if some computers stuck and students forget to save the document that will be so sad. :( 

         Base on first part of test, can test students the basic knowledge of the poetry.Seconed part of tests is about figurative language used. Third part is analyze the poem. Forth part is used follow the direction to creat a poem. (That's most difficult part I think)

 During the test I learned to use everything I have to help me solve the problem. And the sufficient preperation before the test is very important!!!That will save a lot of time during the test.

         From the test I learn the technology of the computer is when you finish some work you need to click "save" because computer may stuck some time, whole thing you done in the document will lose at that time. (before you begin the test you need to make sure you download the document in the computer and save it in right place then start to do the test)

   On Friday,the test that we took about poetry i have to say it was pretty hard.This test has nothing to do with the other test,there is a lot of differences between both of them because on the regular tests there is always a lot of vocabulary that most of them i understand but on this test the vocabulary was really hard for me.About poetry in the test i learn that i need to read more bout poetry and study more for i can understand it much better and be a poetry reader.I also learn that the grass can be compared with a lot of things even though i did not understand the poem message.The technology is a powerful thing that i really do not like to use it very much,but i realized that even though i do not like it i have to use it for my good benefit and i got to say i am not good at all with technology but i had learn a lot from the technology and even how to use the computer.And i think i still need to learn more about poetry and to learn more vocabulary.

It was different from the normal test because, we were doing it on the computer and we were able to search up some stuff.So if weren't sure about something we could've look it up from internet and get it right,also if you did a review sheet before the test u could've look up to by using technology. I learned lot of things during the exam because i looked at the meaning the ones that i don't know. Mostly in the vocabulary part I learned I lot. i learned that technology can be to helpful for us if we know how to use it.
