News Project 2

  On June 5th, after discussion, most content of our news project has come out. Since we had completed the questions for the survey and already posted it on Facebook, this time, the purpose of the discussion is to make the motivation clearer and comprehensible.

  Honestly, the poster is really helpful. Writing key words on it makes us realize what we really want to express. The topic from Joanne: the faith of diplomas for the students in NCU, may be temporary until the result of the survey comes out and we decide how to express it on the topic.

  So, the introduction lies on what situation brings out such news as Dr. Chicken. To put it simply, it contains educational and economic parts. First, for the educational part, we can see in Taiwan, the society encourages students to get more studies, which can be proved by the phenomenon that there are 162 universities for students to choose. And, for the economic part, when the economic depression becomes worse and worse, young people get the wrong idea that only by getting beautiful diplomas can they find a good job. What's more, some students may escape from the great pressure to find a job by keeping on studying. According to these reasons, we know that is why students end up forgetting the original purpose of studying. 

  Dr. Chicken also advised young people don't forget why you study so hard. We want to show this to the readers and also find out how students in NCU think about this.

That's why girls always keep their smartphones from their boys!(2.4)

A picture reveals a girl's anxiety to her "green-eyed monster." 

Figure one
 "The boy in the picture is my friend. He was a senior high classmate of mine and my boyfriend," the responder explained, who is 19-year-old. She has been  in a stable relationship with her boyfriend for 3 years. She continued, "I took it for the touching moment that he carried the baggage for me. But if my boyfriend saw this in my smartphone, he would not stop pouting.

  Moreover, talking about if her boyfriend saw her smartphone, "it's like my privacy being invaded and I would feel uncomfortable," the responder commented. 

  A smartphone is just like a diary. You can take down anything in your life by taking pictures or sending texts and emails.  So, boys, especially who are always ready to be jealous, stop blaming your girlfriend for not letting you see her smartphone. Because it is very likely that you get madder when seeing something unusual!

News Project 1

  Nowadays, for most young people, a college diploma cannot assure them getting a handsome salary anymore. According to our government's research, a graduate, averagely is paid 22,000 NT dollars per month. There is even a news reporting that a doctor sells fried chicken for living. He told the public he would not study doctoral degree if he could start over. He considers studying to be useful, but he thinks students should figure out the purpose of it. And he also urged college students not to get further studying just due to being afraid of finding no job.
