会喜欢上她的文字,也不过是这一两年的事情。这次见到她真人,真的让人不禁怀疑她是不是得罪了出版社,所以出版的文集里面她都是披头散发的。星期六的讲座当天,是我第一次去看写书人的讲座,当时的她,跟我最近在电视上看到的专访的她的打扮差不多一样,是说,最近写书人都有打书服吗?*大误*不过一整晚下来,我还真的不得不佩服她的修养和睿智,面对着一群有些摆明车马就是来踢馆的观众,仍然用她独有的幽默来一一化解。
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.
吓到归吓到,午餐还是得吃的,更何况我约了人。待我的理智恢复后,就收拾好心情挂上灿烂的笑容准备下车。才刚下车,对面停车位刚好有人也在下车,原来是比比和他的男伴。一切都是那么得凑巧,而且凑巧的程度真的可以媲美市面上所有的所谓畅销书排行榜内的故事。还是很凑巧的,刚好比比也察觉到我站在她对面,于是我们双方把车子给锁好后就彼此走向对方寒暄一番。这时他的男伴并没有随同,而只是怔怔地呆在原地。
若大家記性還不錯的話,大概還記得前陣子我一下子淘汰了一部半的電腦。本來是想要捐出去什麼的,後來看到朋友抱怨電腦很慢,就想說做個順手人情把比較新的那半部給他好了。可是沒想到無止境的挫折,就此開始。是說老師以前都很愛勸告我們要多做好事,才會有好報不會出街給警察不由分說打死。可是這一次的經驗,卻讓我一整個後悔莫及,整個就是賠了夫人又折兵吃力不討好。
我想我神經真的很大條,因為在介紹這部片子之前,吉安在介紹這位導演Asghar Farhadi的新作A Seperation(譯名:分居風暴)的時候有說電影有在影射伊朗的國情。可是就我印象,電影只不過是很真切展示了幾個人的生活。再多說一點,就是劇情很肥皂劇戲劇性很足這樣。約略介紹完這部片後,介紹人吉安又說電影含有某些隱喻。如果不是他老大事後點破,說真的我真的有點看不出來最後一些細節位子背後隱藏了什麼樣的複活節彩蛋玄機。是說這些隱喻有必要如此害羞嗎?
