     It seems we are used to conveying our stances without any solid ground too often, for the sake of opinion or simply for fun. Would they still sound innocent if you opted for the third alternative- a legitimite and deliberate attemt to do research on a subject of interest? 



This blog will aim at discussing controversial subjects through the pilot studies conducted by the senior students of mine, i.e. 9the - 12th graders. 

Before they even start doing so, I'd like to thank them all in advance for any effort they will have devoted, bearing in mind that they are as preoccupied with mountains of extras as all of us adults are. So I really appreciate that, guys!😀


The publishing will consist of brief theoretical overviews as well as the results of the research based on the questionnaire compiled by the students independently. 

Looking forward to the distinguished collection of literature reviews!

Aušrinė Tunkevičiūtė Part 1 INTRODUCTION The main subject which I am investigating is exercising. This term has a lot of meanings and all of them is necessary. It includes any movement from stretching to professional sport. Generally, it can be said that exercising could be any form of movement, but what I will mainly focus on is strolling, jogging, dancing and home exercising. In all the articles I will look for any evidence that exercising has a great impact on human psychology. It may be said that sport has two sides, but I am convinced that exercise perfomed correctly and steadily bears only benefits which I hope will be approved in my pilot study. The thesis I am doing is as following “Exercising makes a person happier”. KEY TERMS ·      Exercising – physical activity that people involve in everyday life in a game, duty, hobby or purpose form. People exercise when they play sport games like volleyball, do special exercises at home, attends professional sport leag

Urt ė Stankevičiūtė Part 2 INTRODUCTORY PART Together with my co-partners we are conducting a pilot study on the thesis “ “Exercising makes a person happier”. I am interested how literature reflects a particular aspect of it, i.e. how physical activity impacts mental health with the aim to find out how exercising or any kind of movement helps to deal with stress, depression and other mental issues whereas my colleague will concentrate more on the previous studies which reveal the positive effect of exercising in general ( see article by Aušrinė Tunkevičiūtė) KEY TERMS Mental issues (Mental illness) – mental illness refers to a wide range of mental health conditions – disorders that affect your mood, thinking and behavior. Anxiety – distress or uneasiness of mind caused by fear of danger or misfortune. Depression – a state of feeling sad (anger, anxiety); a mood disorder marked especially by sadness, inactivity, difficulty in thinking and concentration, a significant in
