Computer Studies: Students having better exposure to the sense of gratitude :

Try to use more frequently concepts like “blessing”,

“gratitude” in the settings of tasks done in this subject. E.g.,

when we ask students to write a program to send a message

to other students, we phrase the task as “sending a blessing

to one of your classmates”, the replying of a message would

become “returning with gratitude the blessing you received”,

etc; try to take appropriate chances to express gratitude to

students when they have made contributions in the

development and maintenance of a good learning

environment in the computer room.
