ZHO” Zayed higher
organization” is a center for the rehabilitation for those ranging from
children to adults. At the beginning it felt weird for me knowing that i and my
classmates were obligated to visit the ZHO and it felt like I just had to go by
the instructions given by the course to achieve good grades (act of Contractarianism).
First we had to
go to a special section where they bring a bunch of kids and adults to evaluate
them, this room is special for evaluation of their different abilities and
skills, to later on separate them into different groups to be is one class, they can’t make decisions on their own. It’s
like an IQ test that tests these children on how they interact with each other
and see what their interested in.
At that time I had to get to know them and try
to interact with them on their level of understanding, it was a bit tough as to
they did not know who I was and neither did I know them, they started taking
advantage of me as I was told to them I was a teacher, and they had to do what
I said since I was a new guy they though id fall for their tricks it was
amazing to see such things happen on the first day.
I felt
like I could get along with them on a local level, even though it was hard to
talk to them and get things through to them, and they always changed their
minds they always wanted something then no they didn’t it was a bit
frustrating, so I acted like I understood them. I realized that their some
children and teenagers that were in a very introverted state and I had to and
talk to them or they wouldn’t have come to me at all, this is what you can say utilitarianism,
I know it was wrong of me to pretend I knew what they were saying, but at then
we carried out conversations and they were happy.
Now
in a place like this there were things I did not expect ZHO is a
rehabilitations center, and for some of the instructors had to use aggression
in the tone of their voice to let the students know who’s boss and they had to
obey direct orders., I never thought that this would be applicable to those
with disabilities such as the students had over there, it didn’t feel right to
me at all, violence breeds violence so I thought it was wrong, and I felt it
was just wasting their time. This act of Egoism from the instructors I feel
that the reaction of some of the instructors is just to earn thing living, I
think I these instructors should be replaced with egoistic instructors should be a person who is a utilitarian.
Someone who could cope and so much patience.
