Sanzhar’s community assignment
I am interesting in learning something new about our planet , so I went to the Energy class . More than 300 student are attending this class . There are two teachers in this class : Dr. Alison Basui and Dr. Sally Hunnicutt . It was amazing experience for me , because I learnt a lot of new things about the energy and about the problems on our planet .
I noticed that the students are using click answers which means’ that they have remotes and they click on the buttons on this remotes . It surprised me =)
I would recommeng this class to all the students , because evryone should know important information about the Earth .
