學習不因考試完而結束Learing won't stop because the exam ended.

我今天考完最後一堂試,是關於瑞典的脊椎動物。有好多鳥,好多魚,還有好多聲音,和一些兩爬。
但是大自然這本書永遠都讀不完。大海裡的魚,天空,樹林與原野上的鳥,我怎能全知了?
這門課在學期成果的欄位上表達的是: 能了解瑞典的脊椎動物,並應用在保育上。然對我來說,這其實更像是開啟我認識大自然的另一扇門; 學習結果,是會觀察周遭環境的鳥聲/身。

很多時候進入森林,或只是走在路上,會對身邊的聲音不敏感,但是修完這堂課,我開始會去聽,"那是什麼聲音?","誰在窗戶外嘰嘰喳喳?"生活充滿了樂趣。
就像是森林系的樹木學,幫我開啟另一世界。

我很謝謝這堂課的老師,十多次的出野外,他都把自己做到最好,也用正向的態度回應我這個動物門外漢。

我記得我第一次考試,在野外考,我迷路了,所以遲到。有點緊張,除了因為遲到,也是因為老師說我要帶他走鳥類的生態旅遊,告訴他什麼鳥在說話,什麼鳥飛過去。我不是一個好導遊,在我又緊張考試又快結束時,老師對我說了句話。這句話讓我了解,我可以做得更好。
那天考完,騎車回家,路上忍不住停下來想,我為了什麼修這堂課?

沒有人可以看完世界上所有的書,就像沒有人可以看片全世界的風情。可是我們可以永遠都帶著一顆好奇的心去看世界,我想這堂課教我的就是這個,抬頭看看誰在唱歌。
而我也因這堂課,去了附近美麗的森林,海邊玩,甚至還找到了下午茶的好去處!那變成是一個想要走進自然的渴望,而不是只有考試。
這堂課結束了,我的學習不因此結束,他在教我如何去聽,發現,而我的生命還在走,我希望地球也是,這樣,我的學習就永遠不會結束。

I finished my last exam today. It is about faunistics vertebrates in Sweden. There are a lot of birds, a lot of fishes, a lot of sounds, and some herptiles.
But this book, nature, can never be finished. How can I ever know all the fishes in the sea, and the birds in sky, forest and field?
The learning outcome in the course information said: To recognize vertebrates in Sweden, and to apply the knowledge in the field of conservation. Yet, for me, this course is more like opening a door leading me to nature; learning outcome is to be able to observe bird sounds and existence in the surrounding.
I was not sensitive to sounds around me when I walked into forest, or on the street. But after taking this course, I started to "listen". "What's that sound?", "Who is chattering outside the window?" Life becomes so much fun.
It was like course in dandrology  of forestry department, helping me open up another world's door.

I thanked the teachers in this course a lot. Over ten times of excursions, he did his best, and he always responded me, the very beginner, positively.

I remember my first test. It was in the field, and I got lost. So I was late to the test. Because of being late, and the request from the teacher was I have to be a ecotourist guide, telling him which bird was singing, and which bird flew by, I was nervous. I was not a good guide. When I was nervous, and the test was going to end, the teacher said something to me. This let me understand that I can do it better.
After the exam that day, I biked home. On the way, I couldn't bike but stop to think a question: Why did I take this course?

No one can read all the books in the world, like no one can see all the view in the world. But we can bring a curious mind to look at this world all the time! I think this is something this course taught me about. Look who is singing up of the head?
I went to some beautiful forest and beach areas because of this course. I even found a good place to have coffee. (fika, in Swedish) It turned out to be an eager to go in to nature, which was not something you do because of the test.
This course has finished. But my learning process never stops. It taught me how to listen, how to observe. My life is still going on. I hope earth is too:) By these facts, my learning never stop!
