Dr. Randy Pausch & His Last Lecture

Dr. Randy Pausch seemed to a wonderful man. He always focused on helping others fulfill their dreams, because when he helped others he was fulfilling his on dreams. He was one who enjoyed time with family, fulfilling dreams, and having fun (just like me).
Pausch had some wonderful ideas for education and teaching. He began a computer program called ALICE. It helped students learn computer programs that were hard and made them seem easy because they were fun and exciting. Randy didn't care too much for "book work". He felt as though students learned better with "hands on" activities. "Hands on" activities are much more fun than learning by the book. LEARNING SHOULD BE FUN!!
Dr. Randy Pausch also believed something that I too believe. We believe that students aren't just learning from teachers, but they are teaching the teachers as well!
