My second session with David was very interesting. I had gotten a list of his favorite YouTube channels from our last session together. So I took one of the videos from David's list and I made a little quiz about it. I provided a script and then had questions about the video. They were very helpful to an extent. David needs to get pushed to do work. Why? I'm not sure. However, watching videos was an activity he would much rather prefer to do. So, I decided that was the best course of action if I was going to get any effort out of him. Thankfully, his mother agreed to do this if it will keep his attention and I assured her that he seems to enjoy watching YouTube videos very much. It may be that kids preferences are changing nowadays on how they want to be taught. Everything is much more technology-oriented now. Also, you can learn almost any skill you want on YouTube. There isn't much of an argument for why technology shouldn't be integrated into a class. Nevertheless, I still have faith in the "old-fashion" style of teaching because I think I turned out alright, right? Anyways, I had him writing summaries almost the entire time a little bit after the YouTube video on different articles about nature that we would come across on the internet. It's very hard to get him motivated to do something so I'm not going to lie, I felt pretty accomplished.
