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.
首先,我要对所有的出席者说声抱歉,因为1027当晚的slide由于是仓促间赶出来的,所以做得不尽完美,至少是过不了自己的那关的。可是奈何于还是得交差,还是得拿出来接受大家的审判,来吧!!!如果你发觉好像只有几个人的照片在,这是因为一来是我真的是last minute的关系,二来,是因为google真的这几天不知道在干嘛慢到一个极点,而我的所有资料都在那个gmail里面,所以真的有一点欲哭无泪的感觉,唉~另外,要对所有的筹委说声对不起,因为真的因为自己私事颇忙的关系所以拖到今天才做slide,也因此成为最迟到的筹委,再深深地一鞠躬。好啦,这次我没办法很详尽地记录所有发生的事情(感觉上很多人在欢呼了,死仔包终于不用长篇大论了)。
前几天真的过得很恐怖,上一篇才说自己行尸走肉(好像有,好像没有,还是自己这次过分夸张?),就马上有现眼报了,所以以后说话可得小心一点。怎么说呢,过去几天忙到天昏地暗,惊天地泣鬼神。那种忙碌,就好像是你被一根麻绳紧紧箍着你的脖子,然后麻绳的另一头,是一个仆街骑着快马(说到这里,胡叔叔的亲戚刚骑了金马,恭喜啦。希望很快轮到胡叔叔)拖着我。那种速度,恐怕你会宁愿驾车10公里/小时都不要被这样的速度拖着走。
如果你还不知道的话,Wordpress已经更新到2.1.0了,之前我是已经skip了2.0.6和2.0.7,不过还好谢天谢地并没有人来搞我的blog。这次比较值得一提的更新,大概是pseudo-cron以及自动save的功能吧。至于spelling check嘛,我倒是没有太大的意见,因为by default firefox 2已经自己备有这个功能了。至于其他的,还有一点我还搞不懂的就是所有的categories已经全部整合在一起了,也就是说总之是categories,无论是links的还是posts的,统统炒成一碟,啊,多么的不卫生。
因为已经受够了工作上无穷无尽的挫折(但愿教授没看到这一段),所以临时还是决定了出席在刚过去的周末举办的摄影马拉松比赛。其实很早就知道这场比赛的,但是想到身边没有人去,一个人傻傻这样过去又很无聊,加上又想到参加过后还要等好几个小时,所以就也没放在心上。可是就在比赛前两天在吃午饭的时候其中一个研究生同学提起这事情,我才重重新在考虑是不是要参加。
