    A Very good day to everyone, the lesson made me feel interested but some part the lesson made me overwhelmed because of the complex process of the entire lesson. However, I would take it as a challenge to grow more hehehehe. Furthermore, the articles provided and the video presentation were absolutely formative and interesting.

    Introductory lesson leads a way of better understanding the Industry 4.o, its challenges and opportunities. I love the way the video was presented! Also, I appreciate your approach of allowing us to read and post comments on the outputs of our classmates and make our own work visible for them. Indeed, change is already on its way and we better be prepared in order to thrive.

    Introductory lesson serves as pathwalk on my way to the teaching profession as I am caught unaware of the basic learning in the field of education. Thus, the said 4th industrial revolution leads me to enhance my understanding skills on what is the current and latest trend in the teaching learning aspect now. Current issues on technologies and strategies in teaching now broadened my horizon on what kind of education will have for the coming years. Moreso, the 21st century lined with the FIRe encourages me more to go into deeper and intend on the offered knowledge of the 4th industrial revolution. Nonetheless, I find these lessons quite adaptive and very timely with the millennial and z generation that speaks of the latest craze and modern way of teaching through technologies.
    Thank you sir, for you are guiding a neophyte in me in my aspiration to become a good teacher someday.

    The Fourth Industrial Revolution (FIRe) made me realized that technological advancement, along with innovation, is alive. I found it very broad yet very interesting. As it flows around our systems, we should not let the FIRe burn us alive. Let us burst the flame inside of us in embracing the innovative and technological change of all this revolution.
