Welina me ke aloha, ʻO au o Kumu Kawehi Kammerer. ʻO James Kammerer kuʻu kāne a noho pū māua ma ka moku o Koʻolauloa ma ke ahupuaʻa o Lāʻie. He ʻekolu a māua keikikāne. Nui koʻu aloha no koʻu moʻomēheu Hawaiʻi me ka hana nō ka hoʻoulu ana i ka lāhui Hawaiʻi. Na Poepoe i ʻōlelo, "Ua ʻoia mau nō ka pono o ka lāhui kanaka i ka naʻauao Hawaiʻi." He Hawaiʻi au mau a mau.

Ho'okai ua lawai'a i ke kaipapa'u. He i'a po'opa'a e ho'i ai.

Translation: A fisherman who fools around in shallow water take home po'opa'a fish.

Explanation: Said of one who prefers doing the easy instead of venturing into something harder and more profitable. The po'opa'a (hard-headed) fish is easily caught with a hook and line.

In addah words no moloa no settle for less. Choosing the easy route only gets manini kine reward or return...try new things...get out of your comfort zone and fish out in the deep and get one ulua no settle for da po'opa'a.

WEEK 3: Cognitive Learning Theories

So here is my concept map for teaching "What is a character?"

This week I am learning about how we all think and how we recall information that is taught to us. I learned this week that concepts maps are tools that help us to remember information better because it is organized graphically as a visual aid. Dr. Michael Orey of the University of Georgia explained, that in order to get sensory input to short term/ working memory to our long term memory we need to use concept maps. According to Paivios, "Dual Coding Hypothesis, which is the idea that images are remembered better than text."

Please take a look at my concept map and leave me a comment.

MAHALO!
