I need the Answers For plato online learning english 4?

im taking english 4 on plato and i need the answers anyone give me a link or tip where to find them i already know all the stuff but i got 2 weeks to do 80 tests.

How much time does it take to finish a Plato class?

guess it depends, for a self-study version, the web page (below) explains Because PLATO is self-paced, students are able to complete a course in as little as 6 weeks or can take as long as an entire academic year. The students who complete the courses the quickest often spend 15 or more hours per week doing PLATO-related work.

How can a college professor best incorporate all of the learning styles in their classroom?

I think good teachers incorporate multiple learning style naturally because it works. They use charts and graphs for visual learners, they use objects in the classroom for examples for spacial learners. It happens organically. Read Plato and you see that Socrates was incorporating multiple learning styles when he taught.Just because we have a new name for it does not mean that the thing itself is new.However, by the time someone reaches college, they should have a sense of their own preferred learning styles and should be able to apply them themselves. Students create mnemonic songs, use pictures in their notes, etc. to make the material stick for them.So a college professor who is any good is already incorporating multiple learning styles in his classroom. But ultimately it is the students responsibility to translate material into the learning style that serves him or her best—not the professor’s.

Non-Christian based Science homeschooling curicculam anyone?

Personally, I don't like curriculums - they're just as restrictive as regular school, and I believe part of the purpose of home schooling is freedom in learning.

I recommend finding age-appropriate science books and letting your child lead the way. Supply the resources and let your child become a scientist. Do science experiments, spend time in nature, and read the works of prominent scientists. Subscribe to a few science journals, etc.

(and this advice is by no means relegated to science. Do this with all your subjects!)

This book has some good recommendations for reading:

Is learning classical philosophy still valuable?

Well, like most answers to a lot of questions, it depends. If you’re thinking about majoring in Philosophy or Classics so you can eventually get into a PhD program, the answer is “Yes.” There are academics who still research and write about ancient philosophers like Plato, Aristotle, Epicurus, Seneca, Plotinus, and so on. However, the job market in academia is really bad; there are more people with PhDs than there are available job positions in universities. If you just want to study the classics or hellenistic philosophy because you find intrinsic enjoyment in it, going to a PhD program would be an optimal environment because you’ll largely do a lot of reading and writing on those topics, but there’s no guarantee that you’ll get a job as a professor in classical philosophy.If you’re just asking if learning classical philosophy will benefit you in some way, well, again, it depends. I know people who found a lot of insight and relevance in Stoicism. There are some people who practice some form of Stoicism and they benefited from it. They learned to focus on things they can control and ignore things they can’t control. There are some practical insights in the writings of Plato, Aristotle, Plotinus, and other ancient philosophers writing about how to live a good life. Plato thinks living a good life is basically finding a balance between your intellect, will, and appetite and Aristotle believes that it’s about fulfilling your purpose by developing good character which requires you to participate in you community. You could minor in the Classics or Philosophy and take some courses. Or you could spend your spare time reading Plato’s Socratic Dialogues which you can easily find online.

In a perfect world, what would the ideal school or learning environment look like?

I have to agree with Fred Landis : The ideal learning environment is based on experiences but I don't agree on the "in real life" part.The role of the teacher is to create simulations of real life and to help the children with two things:- the basics of decision making- how to learn progressively If the children have those 2 skills and participate in those simulations everything will be great.Imagine a child that today doesn't want to learn algebra but in an simulated environment finds actual uses for the knowledge and also develops his own method to adapt to new situations (the learn how to learn process).
