收拾装箱和论文写作的共同点就是两者都会到达饱和点，就再也不能继续下去了 :O
packing and thesis writing are the same in that both can reach a point of saturation where you just have to stop :O
packing vs thesis writing
reflective practitioner, an example
first saw this video of the Wintergatan 2000-marble music-making machine last year:
wow, it’s perfect isnt it? (:
and i chanced upon this second video this morning, and witnessed a reflective practitioner reflecting on his learning experience:
what’s your takeaway? 😉
lastly, the marble machine song at the live concert by the entire band may be located here. enjoy (:
word of the year 2016 …
… according to the Oxford dictionary, is post-truth:
“an adjective defined as ‘relating to or denoting circumstances in which objective facts are less influential in shaping public opinion than appeals to emotion and personal belief’.”
and it appears that the phrase post-truth politics has been around for at least a decade, but it’s popularised only recently. although it’s more closely associated with politicians, sometimes, post-truth (politics) is also not too far from us if we think about it. so, ignorance is bliss as always #成语有的就是正常的 #HGXG

what world will my child live in
saw this video shared on moe channel in a feed:
(02:33-) “one thing that is going to be very important is to…learn to learn, in which as you are learning the theory, you are also applying it to a set of problems that are very real. The computers will know the fact, and the computers will be much better at executing the procedures than you will ever be.”
translating it to the two aspects of language learning (cultural content & skills):
“one thing that is going to be very important is to…learn to learn, in which as you are learning the language skills, you are also applying it to a context that is very real. The computers will know the language, and the computers will be much better at executing the skills than you will ever be.”
“one thing that is going to be very important is to…learn to learn, in which as you are learning the cultural contents, you are connecting them to a context that is very real. The computers will know the fact, and the computers will be much better at recalling the contents than you will ever be.”
what are we (both school/teachers, and parents) teaching today that is preparing our children for the world they are living in tmr? #food4thought
