Task journal of Final Project-Faith Of Diplomas For Students In NCU(3.2)

　This week, on June 6^th, Emma led us to play “merry-go-round.” It seemed to be a game, but more than a game. The game gave us a chance to introduce our project and engage on opinion interflow.

　　I think it’s the most important thing that this class wants us to learn: learn to be good at asking and answering the question specifically. 

　　When we were the acceptor in other groups, we had to follow what they are trying to express and find the problems of their question. And when we were at the position to give them a concrete perspective of our survey, we ought to ensure they understand what we talk about. 

　　Thus, the “game” also makes us to practice our skill of oral communication.

　　In the progress of arranging a questionnaire, we had gone through a big change. 

　　Claire found lots of parts we neglect to discuss and may impact the completeness of survey. Originally, we don’t know what the exact result the survey would present: we have asked responder’s opinion, but don’t have a conclusion of it. 

　　So we adjusted some parts of the questionnaire to bring out the theme we are interested in. It caused some obstacles (we have to repost our questionnaire and it seems annoyed in some of our friends) but made the survey intact.

The Myth of Degree-First Draft of Final Project

 The Myth Of Degree

Does Higher Degree Means Better Job?

　　In the progress of discussing the theme of our project, we thought it would be fun and exciting to deal with tenderness of different kinds of gender. But after class presentation, we found that it had much more complicated details that are hard for us to deal with.

　　Then, we started to figure out other topic that may interest people. We reviewed our themes and pick one of them. We focus on the myth of diploma and conduct a survey of college students’ faith of it. The primitive motivation is: does the diploma promise a good job? There’s a news days ago states that a graduator with doctor’s degree has a job not corresponding to his status; he’s selling fried chicken.

➣figure2 from talk.news.pts.org.tw

　　It’s common phenomenon in Taiwan for people to chase higher diploma, which seems to be a guarantee to high salary. It causes a “myth of diploma.”  The society and parent press the student to study more, and more or less make them study just for degree, not for learning. And the result is, some of students do not have exact plan for future, and don’t know what they can do or they like to do.

　　The news of a doctor selling fried chicken may give students in Taiwan a big strike in mind. And we are interested in what’s college students’ opinion to it. We decided to ask if they are faithful in their department and if they had a chance to choose again, will they still keep studying for a higher degree. The result will show how they think of the diploma and how will they deal with the myth of degree.

Like-accumulate posters spread overall Facebook

 Like-accumulating pictures are photos that show “if this post receives over 50,000 likes, I will do something.”  However, shall we be SO positive to have a clear announcement to do good deeds, like delivering curry rice for free?

　　One of the publishers on Facebook is mother of a seven-year-old girl. The girl brawls her parents to buy a bike for her; the negotiation of the parents is: if the photo get 50,000 likes, they would buy her a bike.

　　

　　They got over 70,000 likes over a night and the girl obtained a bike as wished. “We would still buy the bike even if the post didn’t get 50,000 likes,” the responder said,” I had helped others' like-accumulation too: it’s a proposal post and I think it was boring. “

　　A student from NCU thought the current of these like-accumulate articles is kind of sensationalism. “It is like a breast-baring accident of second-rate entertainer,” he added.

　　Whether the statement is true or too exaggerated, their words reflect the perspective of the crowd. Though people help the publishers they don’t know, they had doubt or keep a reserved attitude to them. We have to improve our living quality via actions, not just post a declaration on Facebook. After all, actions speak louder than words

　　How do you think about like-accumulating posts?

Critics from group members

1.     Claire: Like-accumulate is not a right word, it shall be changed to “like-accumulating.”

2.     Tina: too much “I” in the news. Claire further explained that it will be better to show subject truth instead of what I’M thinking about.

3.     C: can add a question in the end of the article if I want people to think about the problem

4.     Ruby: it’s not necessary to say ”I want to know the motivation and whether they fulfill the declarations.” Because I will write the motivation later.

5.     Claire: Add spaces to give the news a good and comfortable arrangement.

6.     Ruby: the sentence of “I feel annoyed…….” shall be changed

7.     Ruby: at the bottom of picture, you should add a introduction of picture, such as “figure one”

 　　The trend of like-accumulate picture grows stronger these days. I feel annoyed of seeing post of photo that shows “if this post receives over 50,000 likes, I will do something.”  Shall we be SO positive to have a clear announcement that we will do some good deeds, like deliver curry rice for free? I want to know the motivation and whether they fulfill the declarations.

　　Thus, I added one of the publishers on Facebook and asked her some questions. She is mother of a seven-year-old girl. The girl brawls her parents to buy a bike for her; the negotiation of the parents is: if the photo get 50,000 likes, they would buy her a bike.

　　Amazingly, they got over 70,000 likes over a night. According to the interviewee, her daughter obtained a bike as wished. However, she said that they would still buy the bike even if the post didn’t get 50,000 likes. The interviewee also stated that she had helped other’s like-accumulation: it’s a proposal post and she thought it was boring. Another interviewee, a male student from NCU, thought the current of these like-accumulate articles is kind of sensationalism. “It is like a breast-baring accident of second-rate entertainer,” he added.

　　Whether the statement is true or too exaggerated, their words reflect the perspective of the crowd. Though people help the publisher they don’t know, they had doubt or keep a reserved attitude to them. Like-accumulate picture may let others have negative impact; it is better to do something about a problem than just talk about it. We have to improve our living quality via actions, not just post a declaration on Facebook.

與post集讚圖片者在Facebook上的簡短問答

 1, 如果真的集到五萬就會去做？

　　就算沒有五萬個讚還是會買

2.一開始post照片的動機? 因為我女兒常常都跟爸爸吵著要買車子

剛好她生日也快到 爸爸看FB很多人都在用集讚 可得到什麼

爸爸就跟她說 不可以哭鬧就想買什麼東西 這樣小孩子很容易寵壞

3.      假設現在女兒說出一個無理的要求，是否會用此種方式迴避？不會，還是會用說理的

4.      在這之前是否有幫助過其他人集讚？曾幫忙過結婚集讚(Eason Al的)

5.      對於那時候集讚的人想法？很無聊XD

New member in your close relationship?! the final draft

New member in your close relationship?!-Joanne Tsai

Smart Phones Change Communications Of People!!!

　　2012 is a year that smart phones start to gain their prosperity. No matter which generation you belong to, smart phone is a new member in your close relationship. It exists everywhere: in classroom, in dorm, in our daily life. We can say that we are strung by smart phones due to the innovation of smart phones let us contact to each other closely.

　　Smart phones have an access for Internet no matter where we are, directly impact the connection of our close relationship. When we are having reunion, dating or eating out with friends, we may check our smart phone will-less. But this small act brings big influence. “It would upset or provoke me if my girlfriend kept using smart phone when I’m talking to her”, Cigam, a freshman in Chemistry Department said. Another male student Shaya said,” No Way!!! I will be very angry about this! ”

　　 Though smart phones do many advantages to our life, they may also do negative impact to us. It’s better for us to moderate using of smart phones when we get alone with others. After all, what really important is the one who keep company on his or her own.

Critics

1.      Claire: You need a subtitle.

2.      Ruby: The forth sentence “We can say that we are strung by Internet.” Is kind of strange because your last one and latter one are talking about SMART PHONES, not Internet.

3.      Claire: Second paragraph can be revise into that” smart phones have an access for Internet “ instead of “Smart phones give us access to Internet”

4.      Tina: For the last sentence, maybe is better to change the words his or her to "our"? Because in the one before it you said ”us” and when ”we” use.

5.      Claire: (after I ask if I shall change my statement into Smart phones have us an access for Internet )u don’t have to emphasize on people get access to internet. It’s sure that only PEOPLE can use Internet.

　　2012 is a year that smart phones start to gain their prosperity. No matter which generation you belong to, smart phone is a new member in your close relationship. It exists everywhere: in classroom, in dorm, in our daily life. We can say that we are strung by Internet. And, innovation of smart phones furthers this situation.

　　Smart phones give us access to Internet no matter where we are, directly impact the connection of our close relationship. When we are having reunion, dating or eating out with friends, we may check our smart phone will-less. But this small act brings big influence. “It would upset or provoke me if my girlfriend kept using smart phone when I’m talking to her”, Cigam, a freshman in Chemistry Department said. Another male student Shaya said,” No Way!!! I will be very angry about this! ”

　　 Though smart phones do many advantages to our life, they may also do negative impact to us. It’s better for us to moderate using of smart phones when we get alone with others. After all, what really important is the one who keep company by his or her own.

how smart phones impact your relationship?

　

　　Take a picture of couples who are dating, and compare the same picture taken a year ago. The most distinguished difference is their focus. Just a year ago, couples’ attention concentrated on their half one; now, they may be distracted by smart phones. For valentines nowadays, smart phone is a new member in their relationship.

　　Due to innovation of 3C productions, the way people interact with each other has been changed. It makes us connect to the world constantly so that friends can easily build up a strong bond by letting others knows everything in their life. It indirectly accelerates couples’ being together. But what happened next?

　　After they get together, they have a date. One or both of them keeps checking whether he or she gets a new message. It is annoying or even provoking that your boyfriend or girlfriend keeps chatting with other people via apps when you’re talking to him or her. That is the reason I picked this issue. One of my best friend encountered this situation and they had have quarrel over this problem for about a month.

　　It roots from distinct concept of people. Part of people doesn’t mind of using smart phones when they have a dating or meeting, but the rest think contrary. There are lots of reports and news about this problem. Though technological innovation makes us easily access to connect each other anytime and anywhere, it can do negative influences to close relationships, especially to one you can see everyday.

　　In sum, while smart phone is a media to couples, it can hurt the relationships too. Knowing how to moderate the time of it is the only solution to the problem.
