Module 3: Behavioral Theories


Shape of Youth


In the perspective of the youth today, not all but most of them, "learning' is way too difficult. They prefer prolonged hours using gadgets rather than spending an hour reading their textbooks. To finish a complex game is a piece of cake but to hover across the pages of a book is a dilemma for them. A flash of a camera phone to take pictures of notes and lessons is better than writing it on their notebooks. They can't afford to pay attention to their teacher(s) and listening to them feels so boring. Saturday classes? No! As if they would attend. Saturday party? Complete attendance!


What do you think has become of the behaviors of the youth today? How can we guide them back on the right track? Moreover, how can we sketch a brighter future for them and for the next generation as well?
