So whats new??! tats rite..Haussmannisation!!!!!

Here's an esssay that i came up with one dark gloomy eerie night!! Oh boy.. no..its not something to do with ghosts! Read on guys!

Haussmannize is the word!
The very word Haussmannisation sends chillness into our spines as the word seems to have an unfolded mystery about it. The city of Paris is a very good example of this process and it has stood the testimony of time till now as one of the leading spots of attraction and fascination .Indeed Eugene Haussmann had done an amazing job of remodeling the city in the olden days!
In relating this word to every process that demands an “opening up” and “rebuilding” we find a general comfort and satisfaction. Taking into consideration that a school is a very good example of this process in full swing I am now going to highlight certain features that take a general toll in many of the schools in the recent times.
First and foremost teachers are the artists and the students are the products. Whether they turn out to be masterpieces or just a lump of wasted material seems to rely on their utilization of the externally established talents in them. What the teacher strives these days is to make the students unlearn a lot of unwanted faculties that they developed in the course of time, they spend in schools. In this process we see that the students find it confusing and even challenging to accept certain norms that they have been conditioned into thinking that are good. For example Theoretical learning is always considered better than practical learning by all students. However it is only when they realize that theory is not helping them to get anywhere that they resort to come to terms with their beliefs. To rebuild their beliefs on a new perspective teachers struggle hard and they instill in them the importance of practical learning. The results are very positive and breath- taking as we find students to be prepared for the worst these days.
There are a lot of challenges that both the children and teachers face in this process. The most important factor is that both of them should accept the changes and work together to make them permanent. Students imbibe these things on a much faster rate than teachers as their senses are more alert to the changes happening around them. This is not to put down the teachers who also have great potential in bringing out the same in their students. There are several work shops that are being conducted these days to stress the importance of a new approach to learning and displaying. These work shops help people to understand what and how to confront issues in the future. For certain people it merely serves as a road sign indicating that the pathways that they have chosen are a waste. Either ways, they are useful and that is what matters the most. The modern school campuses have enough infra structure which enable a healthier way of manipulating this “haussmannisation” of culture and society.
The ambience also matters a lot as we have generally been involving ourselves in moving away from nature by means of high technology backing. Remodelling does not mean shedding all that we have acquired from the time of learning but a change that influences us in the right way thus making our lives better. Thanks to people who came up with the word... we need to just utter that word instead of pouring about it in volumes on paper!
I guess tat's enough to boggle ur minds guys! Chow! :-)
