W2 : After watching Mitch Resnick's TED video -KIM JINA


 <Summary>


In 2012, Mitch Resnick gave a lecture at TED on the theme of 'Teach Children Code!' He explains some philosophy in his lecture. 1. Rather than simply using technology, the experience of expressing oneself with technology is more important. 2. Learning certain concepts through code in the process of creating the desired project is a very good way to learn. 3. SW education allows people to develop various thinking capabilities that are not just focused on 'computing'. Therefore, many students have to learn. In other words, he emphasized the need and importance of coding to children.



<New and interesting thing I learned>


I don't know much about computing and coding, so the Ted lecture felt new. One of the most impressive philosophies the speaker emphasized in the lecture was, "Experience in expressing oneself with technology is more important than simply using technology." Usually, most people think that technology is what we use to live a more comfortable life. I also thought so. But it was interesting that technology could be a means of expression. While listening to the lecture, I thought I wanted to learn about coding.



<Discussion>


I want to think about what technologies we can express ourselves with. I thought of communication skills, writing skills, etc. What would other people think?

    Actually, like you, I thought that communication skills, especially speech can express ourselves well. Having a talk(small-talk would be fine) and giving a speech to the public is the best way to communicate with others and talk about myself. However, through Mitch Resnick's TED video, I learned computing also can help us communicate with others. From now on, I will try to learn technology things like coding, computing, and so on!

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...

W7: Review of Good Faith Collaboration / Suyoung Han

  Review of Good Faith Collaboration 1) Summary – Wikipedia from an ethnographic perspective: focusing on collaboration within the community Wikipedia, which is called the world's largest encyclopedia, is an open community and is becoming more and more solid with the participation of various people, conflict, and resolution. In this respect, Joseph M. Reagle Jr. attempted to explain the culture that takes place within Wikipedia. The book describes how Wikipedia was created and what it values. In particular, he described Wikipedia in a book from an ethnographic point of view, and focused on cooperation within the community. 2) Interesting Point – Wikipedia is simple, but not I realized that Wikipedia is not just a site made up of community activities, but rather a collaborative activity that is carried out concretely for the goal. Before I read the book, Wikipedia was an encyclopedia site that only gave me information (even I didn't trust the information), and I thought ...

w9: Its often said by teachers that “Wikipedia is a good place to start, but a bad place to finish” why? LiuXinlei

 Its often said by teachers that “Wikipedia is a good place to start, but a bad place to finish” why? In terms of the comprehensiveness of the content, we have to admit the advantages of Wikipedia. For example, Wikipedia is undoubtedly my first choice when I don't understand an event at all. It is convenient, fast and comprehensive, and I can spend the least time to understand the whole content of this fact as comprehensively and neutrally as possible. But in the process of in-depth learning, Wikipedia can only be used as an introductory content, because in learning we need to understand this fact as much as possible, and we need to understand the different views of scholars in different regions on the same event. There will be different theories. Some theories seem to be not neutral or even discriminatory or ethnographic at present (such as Marxism and Marxism in China), and it is not suitable for Wikipedia. Be shown. In short, Wikipedia has a very low threshold for users. It assu...
