A lesson is a structured period of time where learning is intended to occur.[citation needed] It involves one or more students (also called pupils or learners in some circumstances) being taught by a teacher or instructor. A lesson may be either one section of a textbook (which, apart from the printed page, can also include multimedia) or, more frequently, a short period of time during which learners are taught about a particular subject or taught how to perform a particular activity. Lessons are generally taught in a classroom but may instead take place in a situated learning environment.
In a wider sense, a lesson is an insight gained by a learner into previously unfamiliar subject-matter. Such a lesson can be either planned or accidental, enjoyable or painful. The colloquial phrase "to teach someone a lesson", means to punish or scold a person for a mistake they have made in order to ensure that they do not make the same mistake again.[citation needed]
Lessons can also be made entertaining. When the term education is combined with entertainment, the term edutainment is coined.
Can't afford a lesson, well I'll
give you this for free
Doesn't cost to listen, pay
attention and you'll see
The world's spins to tear you
down and waits for your defeat
focus on the center and don't
skip a single beat
It's your turn, what have you
learned?
Somethings gotta give, I've
heard the cracking for sometime
staring with intent will get you
sore eyes everytime
consider where you've been and
where you'll end up if you fail
Nothing's worse than loosing
words, your honor, or your way
Don't apologize to me
I won't criticize your needs
Don't apologize to anyone for
anything
Especially when it's what you mean
consider this a part of what you
really need
And yes, I do believe
That someday you'll be strong
This lesson's meant for me
The truth waits out there for me and
I feel I'm near
The truth waits out there for me,
