新聞機構,很多時候都是扮演把事情報導出來讓公眾知道的角色。這些事情,可以是芝麻綠豆的小事,也可以是隔壁老王養的小雞早夭到達外太空發現一個新的行星之類的大事。但是如果一家新聞機構本身成了新聞焦點,那一定就是大事。在我們生活的這個什麼都能的國度,就是大事中的大事。你看看哪份大報明年拿不到出版准證,那是大事。據實報導哪個官講話辭不達意,導致本人惱羞成怒出來說記者聽錯,那也是大事
就快毕业了,昨天刚拍好的照片很残酷地提醒我这个事实。从朋友的口中得知很多将会各奔东西(好夸张的形容词),有些不读了,有些则转去别的大专。而我自己到现在还没有要走还是要留的谱。离别总是伤感的,不知道要等到什么时候大家才会有这样的机会重新聚在一起,说到这里有点羡慕我的小学老师,至少她可以每年见我们一两次(她生日和过年期间)。
朋友极力推荐这部电影,终于抽空看了后觉得这集聚众大牌的电影的确拍得比想象中好。其实前阵子已经看过了这部电影的海报,就是那张把所有大牌的头像给堆在一起的那张就已经很期待了。期待其实也不一定是集中在剧本上,毕竟类似Ocean Eleven这样的电影是可遇不可求的,进场前其实也只是想看看这对人放在一起会制造出什么样的效果这样。说的,就是最近正在上映的Contagion。
因为自己不是烟铲煲烟族,所以片中的一些用词感觉上好像是第一次听,所以觉得传神得很好笑。其中个人觉得比较有趣的是一群人围在垃圾桶旁边煲烟原来就叫打边炉……好啦,我承认我很大乡里啦。总结是,这是一部很甜蜜的都市童话,只是男女主角好像已经脱离了青春偶像的行列的样子(毕竟其一已经晋升为丁太了)。
Few days ago, I posted up my response on the e-learning issue as requested by my lecturer. I was quite shocked after found out that not more than 5 people posted their response. Is this a sign showing that even though we are studying computer science, but we still do not appreciate and utilize the internet connection wisely? Or this shows that our e-learning system has some problem because it doesn’t help attracting students to login (in other word, it sucks)?
But then, I am quite impressed that there are people who rely on the internet resources in studying in my course. This is because in my college, we are rely on the lecturer for notes. If a lecturer does not provide notes for photocopying, then he/she will be in trouble when students evaluate him/her during the end of semester. Not many who are really interested finding out more on the subject somewhere else and this is probably why not many logged into the BlackBoard and post their response.
In my response, I pointed out that constant electrical supply is a main factor in order to make e-learning a success. It is quite insulting when we are already used to electricity black-outs even in this so-called “Advanced State”. Besides that, decent broadband coverage is also another important factor because not many residents in Malaysia are able to surf online with the help of broadband. Even one can surf using broadband, if he/she is using Streamyx’s service, then he/she will probably suffer from the constantly service down. Even though there are other ISPs providing broadband connection but they cant provide low cost connection. This is because wired connection that is generally cheaper is already monopolized by Telekom. In order to use other ISPs’ services, we will need to pay more for the hardware because they use wireless technology to deliver broadband connection.
If these problems are left unbothered, then I do not expect E-learning will become a trend in Malaysia.
