University in Order to Take Two Steps Forward.

Did you attend university? These days,  more people go to university than in the past according to data relesed by Statisitics Korea. They start working later, and with more qualifications. Is this a good thing or bad thing? I think this is a good thing. University is a way to learn more about what I am interested in. University is the nurseries of promising talent. In addition, university has a lot of merit.
First, we can learn various things in university. University teach various liberal arts as well as a major. University has a very broad range of cultural subjects we can study. We can choice and learn more about what I am interested in. Students learn the accountability of choice. We also learn how to solve problems and work together through team project.
Second, when we are an undergraduate is an opportune time to try us chance at something new. Undergraduate has many advantages such as student discount, scholarship, and so on. Therefore, students cost comparatively few money at trying something new. Also, university students have a lot of free time. University students can enjoy long summer vacations and winter vacations. University students have time to try something with less money. It is very good chance.
Finally, we can also make connections with various people in university. The old saying goes that it's not what you know, it's who you know. Strong connections with a variety of people will become your biggest asset in the near future.
University is one step backward in order to take two steps forward. Going to a university is investing in our future. I think it is good that more people go to university than in the past and it is not a big problem.

Blog Post #5

This semester we have focused a lot on not only producing knowledge, through blog posts and comments, but also knowledge ownership, by using proper citation.
Thanks to this class, my own experience from the blog writing has changed my understanding of knowledge production and knowledge ownership. As Gary said, if we submitted our assignment in a paper, I will send it to the rubbish pile. However, by writing my paragraph on to my blog, I can’t send it to the rubbish pile. Therefore, I can see my paragraph again because it remain on my blog unless I delete my posting. Also, I usually neglect writing a proper citation. I didn't realize how much until I learn a citation in Gary class. Now that I've learned about citation, I will use all of citation if the knowledge is from outside source. Blog posting gave me both understanding of knowledge production and knowledge ownership.
