Ann Maries Harris Write Up

I loved the essay by Ann Marie Harris, it really caught my attention, and I knew that I was going to get out of it. Sister Harris states, "The learning I am desribing reaches far beyond mere cognitive comprehension and the retaining and recalling of information. The type of learning about which I am speaking causes us to put off the matural man." I life how she goes on to talk about Elder Bednars talk and explains what we as students need to do to be good learners but as well the teachers. As we as students try to implement these things in are everyday lives I feel that we all can so a lot better inout class's.
I like how Sister Harris talks to the teachers and explains what there roll is as well. "We, as teachers, must help students see patterns for success and we must require of them all that they can give. They have much potentail and we have the opportunity to help them develop that innate desire to grow and excel, which has in many cases, been sadly neglected in the secondary schools." I love it when I have teachers that are there to help you understand what they are teaching not just there to teach.
I really liked Pres. Clarks talk. I completely atree with him when he says " personal and collective need for revalation and for the powers of heaven in the great work that lies beforeus. Every one as a different way of learning and studding as we have the sprit with ehrn we are in class and as we are studding we will be able to rememeber what we have learned in our class's. When we study with the spirt we will remember the things that we ahve learned. I also like when Pres. Clark said " the command to draw near unto me is a command to come unto Chrsit, to reach out to Him in our prayers in out thoughts and in our lives. As we so this we will heve the spirt to be with us.
As in these scriptures Nephi was commanded to build the ship. Nephi did was he was asked, He would ask God questions on where to find things that he could build the ship, and as Nephi would ask GOd how to make the things that Nephi needed God would tell him. Just as for us as we ask God for things he will be right there to help us.
As in all of these talks and in the scriptures we are taught that we need to folloe what God has for us and he will show the way. As we put god first in are lifes's asking for his help he will always be there for us. We cannot rely on out self's, when hard things come our way and we are stubborn about them and say that we can so them by our selfs, God will left us and watch us fall on our face's. As with being prepared for class's and for our test if we ask our Heavenly Father to help us when we go to class to help us understan the things that are being taught he will. As we ask our Heavenly Father to help us when we are studding for our class's he will be there to help us. He is always just waiting for us to ask and he will come running to us.
