           Hello! Here I am going to write another blog. The blog spot is about Flipped Learning and Existentialism. This Blog is also a part of Thinking Activity.

In this Particular blog I am going to share my understanding of Flipped Learning and Existentialism. Click here to know more about Existentialism.


        So, In this Particular blog, As per my understanding ,  I am going to share my views based on Existentialism. In this particular blog sir told us to watch ten short videos and it is also available on Barad sir’s Blog. 


                               Flipped Learning 


                              

          

 Flipped learning is a new concept of learning which differs from traditional learning. In a traditional classroom Learning , students typically receive a lecture from the teacher during class time and then complete homework or assignments outside of class.

                                          

                                          

      

 In flipped learning , students watch pre-recorded lectures or complete other learning activities before coming to class, and then use class time for more interactive and collaborative activities, such as discussions, projects, and problem-solving. Flipped learning is not limited to any specific subject or age group. It can be applied to various educational settings from K.G.-12 classrooms to higher education institutions. 

 

                                           



                                    Existentialism ( અસ્તિત્વવાદ)


                              

                                

 Video 1

 



     In this video , we can see brief information about Existentialism. It started with Soren Kierkegaard , and Followed by Nietzsche, Dostoevsky, Heidegger, Jean Paul Sartre and Simone de Beauvoir and Albert Camus.  They talk about Existentialism but all have different views from each other. Existentialism is the concept of Freedom , Individuality and Passion.   

video 2


In this video we can get some idea regarding what is absurd reasoning. And people have lived life with no worth and low feeling.  Life is purposeless and meaningless. That type idea leads towards suicide. According to Albert Camus , “Suicide is an Individual Act”. I agree with this statement of Albert Camus.  
Video 3


In this Video Albert Camus rejected the idea of being Existentialist. Albert Camus built his entire philosophical views with absurdity in the Centre. He suggested that we have Faith in God. 


Video 4  



In this Particular video , after the both World Wars , people were negative and despair. This is the major reason and gave birth to three theories, Nihilism , Dadaism and Existentialism. Dadaism and Existentialism both are an artistic movement.
Video 5


In this particular video, Existentialism is often accused of being a gloomy philosophy. Existentialism has a reputation for being gloomy because of its emphasis on pondering the meaninglessness of existence.  


Video 6


Existentialism and Nihilism  both are completely different from each other. Existentialism is fought against Nihilism. And Nihilism is the belief that nothing matters. Nihilism is believed that life is meaningless.  

Video 7


In this particular video we can easily understand what is existentialism. In this video discussion about existentialism is not a philosophical concept.  Existentialism deals with this statement that, A problem of life as a human being. Here it is classified as a movement. Existentialism addresses that, what we more need from a human perspective.

Video 8

In this video , we can see how they learn existentialism to a little child , four/five years old. This video is like fun learning. This particular video ,the speaker talks about Friedrich Nietzsche. And at last , the little child pronounced Existentialism like Exatentalum or Eggsalentlalism.


Video 9

In this video , during our lectures on the topic of Existentialism sir also told us that the first pic is used when we make a video. It is  a good way to make the video as a Road-Map of Video. First of all is Why I like Existentialism. Second one is How Existentialism has affected my everyday life. The third , last one is Top 10 things you can do to live more Existentially. 

           This Video talks about Eric Dodsan , his personal experience of being an existentialist. He discussed that Existentialism talks about acceptance. It is connected with our day to day life. Holism is a part of it. 



Video 10


In this video the speaker talks about the comparison between Existentialism and Essentialism. When we went back to Ancient Greece , Plato and Aristotle took it as given that everything has an essence including us. And they believed that our essences exist in us before we were even born. 

       Essentialism was the standard view of the universe all the way up until the late 19th century , and it is still accepted by many people today. In this particular video , the speaker emphasizes two words : Being and Become. We all are human beings. An important thing is that we want to become something in our life. The essence gives us purpose to live life. 


Thank You... .

‘As You Like It’ by William Shakespeare

  ‘As You Like It’ by William Shakespeare (Play) William Shakespeare (baptized April 26, 1564, Stratford-upon-Avon, Warwickshire, England—died April 23, 1616, Stratford-upon-Avon) is the poet, dramatist, and actor often called the English national poet. He is considered by many to be the greatest dramatist of all time. Shakespeare occupies a position unique in world literature. Other poets, such as Homer and Dante, and novelists, such as Leo Tolstoy and Charles Dickens, have transcended national barriers, but no writer’s living reputation can compare to that of Shakespeare, whose plays, written in the late 16th and early 17th centuries for a small repertory theatre, are now performed and read more often and in more countries than ever before. The prophecy of his great contemporary, the poet and dramatist Ben Jonson, that Shakespeare “was not of an age, but for all time,” has been fulfilled. He is a writer of great intellectual rapidity, perceptiveness, and poetic power. Other write...
