As a result, learners feel stimulated and interested. However, risk may cause pain to risk takers, telling them when to stop unrealistic experiments and stick to traditional yet practical approaches.Gloriahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08522857315181373450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7025764774642912394.post-67058912696253966762007-08-20T22:38:00.000+10:002007-08-20T22:38:00.000+10:00Opportunity attracts hope – risk evokes threat and...Opportunity attracts hope – risk evokes threat and fear, yet little of value comes without risk.
