this morning

We have a mid-term exam of Chinese medical diagnostics today. I was wondering yesterday that I may fail to prepare it well, and be flunked at the end of this semester…(depressed). But it turns out that some part of the test is pretty tough to answer, for me, I am not sure how many score I can get.

Forget it! I need something to cheer up!

Maybe going to a movie is a good choice~

complain

Today is Monday, but how would I wonder why it is already Wednesday (I mean in the middle of a week). So busy, so many tests, and so many trifles to do. When will I get rid of all this…(sigh~)

Schools say iPods becoming tool for cheaters

news from CNN:http://www.cnn.com/2007/EDUCATION/04/27/ipod.cheating.ap/index.html


outline ------------------>>>>

1.Schools across the country(here means America) are targeting digital media players as a potential cheating device. Because school officials realized some students were downloading formulas and other material onto the players.

2.Some students thinks that the ban has not stopped some students from using the devices.People who are going to cheat are still going to cheat, with or without them.

3.Conversely, Duke University in North Carolina began providing iPods to its students three years ago as part of an experiment to see how the devices could be used to enhance learning.


reflection --------------->>>>

I-Pod has been more and more popular in Taiwan. Almost every student in high school has one. The advantage of i-Pod does on learning is providing the listening practices, but in reality, the chance is that students regard it only as a media player that provides entertainment rather than a tool of learning. It is pitiable that we own a useful tool but no one can get advantage of it in some proper way.
