COOPERATION VS COMPETITION
COOPERATION VS. COMPETITION.
1.
COOPERATION: is the collaboration of each person when we work in group, also is the
process of acting together
2. COMPETITION: competition is most related with business
process although sometimes is the action of working to get a goal and in the
future be a winner
3. . Which term do you think is more appropriate for life:
In my point of view for the life is more appropriate for my life the
cooperation, because if I work to my goals alone I won’t get the same results, that if I
could have worked in group.
4. As a future teacher in which aspect do you think
we should focus on and why?
The education
will be very competitive for that reason is important think in both
aspects but we should focus on in competition.
If a teacher
think as a winner will have ideas to change the education and be better to him
students.
5. Watch the following video, a part of the
documentary I AM by Tom Shadyac. Write down your reflection after watching the
video about the two terms being discussed (Cooperation and Competition).
When some
people reflect about topics as competition and cooperation is difficult to me
get a decision and decide one, because in all the world there are competition
and in the video the author said that the cooperation should be the most
important aspect in our life but the people don´t change their objectives they want
be a winners.
