W1: Why are you taking this class? / What practical skills do you expect to gain from attending it? 이성한(Lee Seonghan)

 1. Why are you taking this class?

I am taking this class, because I believe Wikipedia is a masterpiece of collective intelligence. It is an open-source encyclopedia which is made by cooperation of various people. Not only Wikipedia but also many things in the world are made by collective intelligence. I look forward to understanding more about collective Intelligence by learning Wikipedia.


2. What practical skills do you expect to gain from attending it?

I will develop the cooperative spirit by attending this lecture. Blogging and editing Wikipedia cannot be done by alone. Those are getting plentiful by various people's teamwork. So I expect to gain the cooperative spirit by learning collective intelligence in this class.

W2 : Why Wikipedia? / Wikipedia and alienation

● Why Wikipedia? ●  Problems : Wikipedia and alienation   1) Why Wikipedia has become more acceptable Through this week's lecture, I learned why Wikipedia has become acceptable and why I should get used to it.

Coupled with the constant dedication of tens of thousands of powerful volunteers, Wikipedia is the most efficient of all collection and sorting attempts.

W10 : Can we think of some example of how Internet has changed our culture? / 박소민(SOMIN PARK)

 1. Summary  The Internet has changed our culture so much. First, through the Internet, we can meet people regardless of distance. People in each country communicated over the Internet and reduced the barriers to distance by creating relationships. Also, the Internet has let us stay away from books. When we want to find expertise, we can get it from Wikipedia or Google. Even information in books can be obtained through e-books, reducing access to libraries and paper books. 2. Interesting point Further to the above, our brains are gradually degenerating because we don't have to remember information. We are constantly interrupted by SNS notifications ringing on our phones when we do something, so our concentration and attention are being reduced. Furthermore, the ease of obtaining information online is causing our short-term memory to decline. 3. Discussion point I think the Internet has made it easy to sever a relationship with a person because we can meet another person simply...
