SYNESTHESIA



Synesthesia is the blending of the senses. Letters and sounds have color. Numbers have shape. Words have taste and for some Synesthetes, symbols have personalities. Is this really a neurological disorder? Some recognize synesthesia as a great leap in communication where individuals no longer have to rely on internal definitions and prejudices of words to understand meaning through language.
It is so interesting that a sort of a buzzing sound or something the letter A made a certain person hear every time they saw . I think it would be some kind of shape = sound synesthesia, but the fact that we have all been taught what the letter A is supposed to sound like does not mean it's synesthetic, it's just something that has been agreed on separately within every language that uses this alphabet. The sounds existed before the letters, the letters were just invited to ''describe'' those sounds, so if anything it would be sound = shape synesthesia.

And also, the general idea is that synesthesia is involuntary. I think, learning is voluntary. Besides, even if you tried to memorize the colors of numbers or letters, or their personalities, when asked to recall them you would be unable to do so perfectly . Synesthesia is a condition in which one sense ,for example hearing, is simultaneously perceived as if by one or more additional senses such as sight. Another form of synesthesia joins objects such as letters, shapes, numbers or people's names with a sensory perception such as smell, color or flavor. The word synesthesia comes from two Greek words, syn (together) and aisthesis (perception). Therefore, synesthesia literally means "joined perception." Synesthesia can involve any of the senses. The most common form, colored letters and numbers, occurs when someone always sees a certain color in response to a certain letter of the alphabet or number. For example, a synesthete ,a person with synesthesia, might see the word "PLANE" as mint green or the number "4" as dark brown.
As far as scientists can tell at this point in neurological studies, synesthesia comes about because two or more areas of the brain are not as isolated as they normally are, so that sensations from one area bleed over into another area, giving complex multi-sensory experiences from one input. When it comes to the philosophical significance, it really just means that your perceptual form of being aware of existence is different than most people. There is not a sound associated with texture, you actually experience a sound with certain textures, and that is just the way you experience the world. I am assuming it is rather consistent, in which case one had to learn to live with it as a malfunction of his/her senses, just as a blind man must learn how to adjust to being blind. I wouldn't say that perceive the world incorrectly, but rather that particular form of being aware of the world differs from most people.I don't think there is a cure for it at this point, but so long as you can distinguish actual sounds from your textual sounds, you can distinguish the texture of something in a different way. I believe that it is a god gift to some special people. Also, I want to be synesttet, too. It must be wonderful seeing colors while listening the music and having some special flavour.

FRENCH REVOLUTION









French Revolution has still been affecting our life.Good aspects or bad aspects.When we look our environment we can see its affects.Can you see?Well, French Revolution spread to many countries. In addition, it brought out a lot of idelogies.For instance; nationalism... Everybody has understood different mean from French Revolution. It was good or bad? Which one?It can be seen good by many nationalities. On the other hand, it can be seen bad some of the countries which had many different nationalities society . But it is fact that, it is a milestone for the human rights. By being spread out to the whole world, it has changed the way people once lived. Imperialism is something that cannot be tolerated for the reasons that it restricted the human rights and give a chance for noble class to look down on other people and sponge on them. Except wars, in which practically thousands of people lost their lives, French Revolution has been the biggest step taken for the humans to live as human so far. Also, this was the first major revolution in western europe that came from the people against thier own royalty.
The point where so many things changed at once, was the French Revolution itself. A revolution starts when ones has a build up of pressure in a system. In the French Revolution's case, the death of Louis and the massive debt when he left behind was a major factor. I do not depend on this part of the Revolution, but it was a contributing factor. Actually, people were poor,hungry and oppressed and the king was spending loads money on jewelery and a nice capital building. Extremely, The French Revolution was mostly caused by the disputes between the different social classes in the French society and their ideas in which to control the government. The authorities of kings, priests and nobles were questioned during this time. Many new political meanings and ideas were introduced to the people, many which would later be useful. New political forces such as democracy and nationalism were developed because of the French Revolution.Thus, The French Revolution is seen one of the most important events in the history of the world. However, it is not forgotten that how it was a bloody,violent war. While many of them were living together with their lovely neighbours, they became enemy ro their friends because of their nationality's war!

Purpose of the School Education and How We Learn?

Meaning of the education can lead to many different ideas for all of us . Actually, It does not matter what it is. There is a general consideration that it is so important for future, now and was important in the past, too. It helps to bring people and the society together. It also builts bridges in a society between past and future. This helps to make mankind to become perfect and conciousness about realities.There are many different ways of learning. Teaching is only one of them. We learn a great deal on our own, at independent study or play. We learn a great deal interacting with others informally like sharing what we are learning with others. We learn a great deal by doing, through errors. Also, we leran that there is apprenticeship that learning how do something by trying it under the guidance of one who knows how. For example, one can learn more architecture by having to design and build one's own house than by taking any number of courses on the subject.In the educational process, students should be offered a wide variety of ways to learn, among which they could choose or with which they could experiment. They do not have to learn different things the same way. They should learn at a very early stage of "schooling" that learning how to learn with the help they seek but, that is not imposed on them. In addition,there must be techology in education while showing to students the knowledge. The other important in education that needs to be an ongoing process,i feel like this should be the most important goal.In concrete terms, the purpose of an education should be to prepare students for jobs that they will take when they enter the real world, ones that they can choose and ones that will put food on the table. Every child needs a solid background in reading, writing, math, etc., and teachers should try their best to foster a desire for learning to their students, but it is really most important that a student is powered to pick and choose which job they want; this could include pursuing a college degree or a technical education. They should be familiar with their strengths and weaknesses and learn how to use those to their advantage in the years of following school. While there should be minimum standards for what all children are required learn, education should ultimately lead to better self-awareness and a clear-cut path for success in the real world, in whatever form it takes for each person. I know while you are reading this you can think that in writing to say all of them is easy. But if we want to have a good future and perfect communication with peoples, countries in short that with humankind , we sould keep the education on the top.
