Recently our English for Science unit’s lecturer posted an issue about e-learning at the college’s “e-learning” system (which is actually a blackBoard Learning System that is also used by many other colleges) and we are required to write a response to that issue. She also provided a link to a page that clearly explains about “e-learning”. Until now, I have really no idea on this issue since I am still reading that webpage while I am posting this.
If only looking at my college’s so called “e-learning” system, I really don’t like it much because it is not as useful as I expected. Blackboard Learning System is no doubt a good system handling “e-learning” things but it is not being well used at my college. I myself prefer looking for information at another websites rather than the e-learning system because there are almost nothing provided by our lecturer through the system except for some lecture notes / tutorial questions / assignment questions etc. I have a friend studying at another college and I heard from him that he can get a lot more things through their college BlackBoard System besides notes / assignments etc. And the participation of his lecturer is much better compared to my college. I found that sometimes it is very rare to see any lecturer to join in our discussion in the discussion board and probably this is why Blackboard System is not popular in my college.
But these are only some problems that only occur in my college, and this doesn’t mean that they will happen in other colleges as well. Therefore these cannot be the only points in my response to the issue, *sigh*. Now I would need to start thinking what to write and post them this Friday since I do not have much spare time because the units I took in this semester are quite tough (at least 4 credit hours) and I am definitely don’t wish the same thing happened as the “Introductory to Discrete Mathematics” unit last semester.
自从小妹因为课业需要开始霸着家里仅有的单眼后,我剩下的相机就只有刚刚在前阵子借温暖牌高利贷入手的N9(白色的刚刚发布,亮面就算了,还要是64GB……)。其实这手机的相机配备不错,至少跟其它这阵子出的几只备受瞩目的手机(4S/Galaxy Nexus)等级差不多一样,只是因为一些设计上的限制,所以虽然配备了f/2.2的大光圈,可是在低光拍摄表现还是有点差强人意就是。可是这次外拍是大白天,所以其实出来的画面还是不错的,只是这阵子并没有太多时间可以去耍玩这部手机,更不用说拍照,所以这次外拍可以说是我第一次用这部机拍那么多照片。
本來喜悲參半的心情,在一踏進老師的家門卻毫無準備地震攝住了。眼前所見的是滿牆大小不一,五顏六色且擺得整整齊齊的書籍。在得到老師透過眼神的允許後,小男孩奔了向前仔細端倪書架上的書本。這也難怪,玩具他多的是可是課外書卻不見多一本。這本來就是處心積慮為了自己兒子不在課業上有過人之處,所以媽媽才不曾買書回家。是以除了圖書館外,眼前這面書牆自然叫他看了振奮不已。
有时候觉得人类是最擅长自寻烦恼的一种生物,这是我上人寿保险课(好像是精算学的一门)到目前的最大感想。昨天我们上课学会了如何去判断一个人的生存几率,我好怕有一天我见到人我会问他:“你多少岁了,又没有做身体检查,然后最近有什么比较大型的计划?要不要我帮你算算你的生存几率是多少?”。不好笑,但是这正是我们为什么要学怎么算人家的生存死亡几率的原因。就算我们自己不学会怎么算,保险公司那方也会自己静鸡鸡自己算了不告诉你,如果你的生存几率太低,保险公司可能会拒绝你的保单,嘿嘿。
男生都很愛動作片,這是個可能很偏差但或許也不是那麼錯的刻板印象。不說別人,我是還真的相當喜歡動作片。比較可惜的是,近期這幾年的動作片都跳脫不了一些既定的模式。不過嘛,對片商來說賺到錢就好了,誰管市面上每一部都熟口熟臉。於是,這個片種漸漸開始發展出了一個既定的方程式。什麼時候應該來個爆炸,什麼時候應該來個槍戰,必要時應該犧牲什麼人,事實上這方程式端出來就是一部賣座片子的基型了。
很讽刺,上个星期才对blog发表了爱的宣言,接着下来的几天竟然没有继续post新文章了。如题目所述,我对生活的态度越来越麻木,每天不是赶上课就是等上课(还是上两三个小时那种)。说得好听当然叫做悠闲,当然不好听的就是行尸走肉。
我们也并非没有试过反映,但是可恨的是有关方面竟然喷我们班级代表一脸屁。还要是近十人喷我们两三人。还好我不在会议现场,不然我会用很不好的态度走人。这件事情也间接地让我对这间学院越来越反感。真的不知道为什么那么多人推崇这间学院,这间学院真的也不过如此罢了。他们竟然用“你们迟点身为编程员也是过着这样的生活啦!”,真是荒天下之大谬,有没有人工作有两三个小时break的?
“你们可以去图书馆看电影(不懂什么电影……),看书以便让英文能力进步!”,天啊,我们只是想要快快上完课回家休息或者有时间的话可以做点温习什么的,他们也不是不知道自己一直推行“背多分”的制度吗?再说,上课时间从9点到6-7点,住得远一点如我者就被迫要清晨6点起身上路然后到了晚上八九点才回到家。一个男生当然没什么,但是女生,学院方面要如何保障她的安全,必须知道,经过长时间的学习,她可能也没什么精力,如果驾车途中发生什么事谁负责?
唉,说麻木,也真的发了一段很长的牢骚,难道我除了牢骚没有什么可以写的吗?
