ARW Blogging Assignment 6
The most useful approach to use in critically analyzing The Old Man and the Sea by Ernest Hemmingway is Santiago as a Christ Figure. In last NP class, Mr.Wadden explained the relationship between Santiago and Christ. Santiago's situation is similar to Christ. In addition, sometimes his pose is very similar to Christ. I think Hemmingway described Santiago as Christ.

The main characters in Old Man and the Sea are Santiago, a fisherman and Manolin, a boy who helps him.
Three adjectives that describe Santiago are 1) old 2) alone, 3) poor. He is thin and gaunt with deep wrinkles in the back of his neck (pp9~10). He lives alone and he lost his wife.

Having a good school life is the key to motivating oneself because 1) having many friends, you can enjoy either in class and in your free time, 2) communicating with many other people, you meet many various opinions and it helps you to think more deeply and critically, 3) if you feel happy any time, you can motivate yourself to study more and to do many other activities. Students need a good school life because they spend many time at school. I think school life will have an effect on all one's life.

Assignment: "How do "good" university teacher present imformation?"
According to Meiland, a "good" college teachers present information in the following way.
In general, good college teachers present some information, in the sense of "what is currently believed." Yet they also spend much time talking about the basis on which this information is currently believed.
I agree with this opinion on the whole. We were demanded to memorize facts and to understand current belief. I think we need to deal with and examine information we learned so far as "what is currently believed" in college. If one thinks about matter along with authority, he/she can not come up with new ideas. And I also think a good teacher shows relation between the information students learned so far and present matters we should discus and solve. And a good teacher encourages students to think how to solve these matters.
