self-evaluation for Midterm Exam

I really learned a lot in this Midterm Exam. We spent a lot of time on choosing the topic. And we used many ways to find poem which were the main point of the topic. All of us are good friends and we want to show our friendship is more important than others. In our age we take love and friendship are important but some of us are confused which is more important. So, we want to describe this part. I want to say our team really did a good job. We overcame problems and we used props and did some change for our appearance to match the characters. In the process of taking the film, sometimes we argued, some time we agreed with each other and sometimes we laughed at the scene. We all had a tough time when doing the play but we enjoyed it.
And I want to thanks Ada she is a director and film maker. She is the most important one of our play.

A_Picture's_Worth

This photo was taken by me on March 11. That day I was the first one who arrived at classroom. It was so quiet and ordered. This is my classroom now, my college classroom that is so different from my high school classroom.
I was waiting the time to start the class and my classmates come. Then, It was occurred to me that why I felt so unfamiliar with here but I did have been a student here for several months.
Before I entered the college my classroom was decollated a lot of artwork form us. Make our own classroom looked so lovely and cute and we updated that artwork sometime. Bulletin board was always full of posters, information or notification from school and also some our artworks. I used to use wooden tables and chairs and they were small and the tables with drawer.
I was missing the classrooms before. In the photo, this classroom was too clean have big plastic tables and chairs. Not many posters on the bulletin board. I felt we just had classes here and learn from teachers but we didn’t love this classroom at all because it was not only ours but also other student’s.

T:10 Taiwan’s TV Programs (Socially relevant or pure garbage)

I was enjoyed their show. Their quality of recording is not bad. They must spend a lot of time to finish it. Models are the fashionable guides. They create a TV show name” Top Girl” to discuss this issue. Everyone loves watching TV. In Taiwan tread the percentages of talk show have more than other TV program. However, in fact, they just talk about something funny but meaningful. Some of them really do harm for children. Actually, I don’t like talk show very much. I always watch news or HBO.

T8: Should the dead help the living? (Organ donation)

They gave the show a good name "Body Code". And the issue they discuss is really meaningful.
I think over that I will donate my organ after I die. I will to help others. They can take any part of my body to help others. I don’t have an organ transplant donor card. I’m not qualifying for it yet because I’m only 18 years old. It must older than 20 years old.
And my parent still consider if they agree with me to donate my organ.

T9: Taiwan’s News Media (Quality of news reporting)

They want to tell us about what is in it about Taiwanese media. They told us that there are a lot of media exist so we can get a plenty of news. However,news are inclusive of positive and negative to tell the which is good.
The voice of every members are good. It is clear and in a good speed. Background music is comfortable for listen also the commercial time. It made the podcasting more interesting, if they didn't add the music it were boring or add wrong music it would be noisy. I liked therir commercial time they really made me want to buy their product. The voice was so active.

Yellow journalism: is a type of journalism that downplays legitimate news in favor of eye-catching headlines that sell more newspapers. It may feature exaggerations of news events, scandal-mongering, sensationalism, or unprofessional practices by news media organizations or journalists.

In my opinion, Taiwanese news are quite bad and it maybe some kind like yellow journalism. Taiwan have a big news and spread to all the wrold. In 2006, almost all the citizens of Taiwan wanted to depose the president Chen by corruption. Thousands of poeple wearing red clothes were gathered at the front of office of president.
