    I Can Read Movies

    by
    I did the ds106 assignment “I can read movies” where you create cover art for a book adaptation for a  film you like. One of my favorite movies is the 1995 Japanese animation film “Ghost in the Shell“. It deals with cybernetics, existentialism and some badass robot fights. I think it would make a pretty […]

    A Personal Cyberinfrastructure

    by
    I have read this article. I agree with Gardner Campbell’s opinion. In my opinion, most of education which collage students learn is based on past experiences, books and issues. I don’t say this is not beneficial. Students learn how to calculate, speak and write from education. However, students have to do new challenging activity. They […]

    “To build a cyberinfrastructure that scales without stiflling innovation, that is self-supporting without being isolated or fatally idiosyncratic” This quote impressed me. The idea of “no left behind” is meaningful. People have to start from the individuals. Teachers and learners should receive guidance from each other.
